Alex de Campi did a Q&A via Escape Pod Comics, and my question was posed!
My questions: How has video production and filmmaking informed the way you construct a comic book story? Also, who'd win a cage match between Sour Skittles and Sour Patch Kids?
Her response: Haribo Sour Mix is the undisputed king of sour sweets. Accept no imitations.
As for the video production, hell yes. A director composes a shot list before filming, of all the shots/angles... that, and working with film frame composition and lighting, has made me so much better at visual storytelling. Also made me somewhat annoying to artists and colourists. I often specify shot sizes and angles in panel descriptions (which artists are, of course, free to ignore if they have a better way, just as a cinematographer is).
