Rear View You will at the middle of the free throw line. The camera should be set on a tripod at half-court and at an angle to see the position of your shooting hand set just over your shooting side shoulder. The recorder should zoom in so the view includes your whole body, each elbow (the intersection of the free throw line and lane line) and the top of the box on the backboard.
