It is up to the 2nd AC to mark where the actors are standing They typically use paper tape since it's easier to rip with no residue. The mark of tape is usually in a T shape to direct the actors where to point their feet. Each actor should have a different colored piece of tape so they can differentiate their marks, and the same goes for camera placement. There are also other alternatives such as sand-bag or metal t-marks, it just depends on the surface you want to place them on. I've used marks for actors on my productions before, but i can start using these for camera movement also since we're starting to incorporate more movement in our assignments now.
