Just watched the Australian champs video again Amir, and yes they did a great job.

Why do I buy a competition video? I think most people (but I could be wrong) buy the video for analysis. To see themselves perform, how they perform next to other competitors, and how the other competitors perform, or maybe just to see how your mates performed.

Framing was the best I have seen so far, there was one main camera and 3 backups, almost all footage (if not all, came from the main camera set up half way up the auditorium. Full stage for multi competitors, panning for showcases and team events (whilst keeping the WHOLE team in view).
