“Blocking and staging are the most important things in any shot ; a shot with no energy is at odds with the fabric of the film and is always only ever a bad shot even if the VFX work itself in its own right is top notch. VFX shots are fated to be good or bad well before they arrive at the computer, how well you start always dictates how well you can finish in VFX”
