Camera Guidelines

Since the score depends on judgeable video, the camera flyer must concentrate on maintaining position and framing that best presents the move to the judge. Generally this will be ninety degrees to the side of the facing pair of performers and on the same level. Minimal movement from the camera position will aid the judges in determining if the team performed the proper degree of turn or rotation for each move.
