I grew up in theater, and I work better with blocking charts. They give me more insurance in terms of getting the coverage I need and more options in the editing room, and the fact that I can see in advance which setups are similar and which ones are going to take massive overhauls of the set means I can eliminate redundant setups in pre-production and make smart choices about which labor-intensive shots are actually worth it.

In contrast, I find storyboards are only really useful for pitching.
After learning how to storyboard for myself, I love it. After I decide on keeping a scene I storyboard it to finalize my decision.
