There are many ways to shoot. I actually script and storyboard most of what I shoot, especially if it is intended for DVD down the road.
I begin with a walk through, shooting stills that will be used on my web site, to help the actors get a sense of the action.
The male performers are the most difficult to deal with, because keeping wood on a set that is not gonzo in nature is easier said than done. Therefore, you quite often shoot as much plot prep as you can during the dedicated still session, then have the performers go at it, and then you interrupt them briefly for more stills during each position (most videos have 3-5 planned positions worked out in advance), and then you resume shooting and make the necessary edits in post-production.
