A good rule of thumb is get as much 'coverage' as you possibly can, it's always better to have more action on film, than you think you are going to use, it makes editing easier, and it's ALWAYS easier to cut footage away in editing than it is to have to ADD footage.
Amen to that. I never feel like I have enough footage when editing other people's films. I wonder how they think I'll suddenly come up with shots they never filmed or sent to me. I'm storyboarding my future short shoot to death at the moment. If I'm missing something later in editing, I'll have no one to blame but myself.
