Coaches have specific needs for game and practice footage. We are not looking for NFL films highlights. We are looking for video we can use to evaluate the entire teams performance.
First off, set up as high as possible and centered. If you can get in the press box or on top in many stadiums, that would be perfect.
Do not zoom out too much. We do not want to see the entire field. We want to see the players, not empty grass. We do not need to see anything off the field. Focus on the action.
Close up shots are not often necessary. The only time to close in on the players is after the play ends and they are unpiling and going back to their huddle.
