Basketball Tips:
Basketball Tips:
Position the camera at center court and on the top row of the bleachers. This will give the best angle to film without people walking in front of the camera as they come and go during the game.
Keep the camera on wide view, don't zoom. This will allow the movement of all 10 players to be captured.
Don't zoom in on the ball handler or any one person. The movements of the other players are just as important, if not more, than the player with the ball.
Comments can be heard, so don't talk during the game. We don't want to mute the film because we need to hear the whistles.
You can pause for time outs. And stop the camera for half time and between the games.
Pickup the camera after school from the library and always return it in the bag to the library or to an adult.
