... over-the-top, Web-based ACCN, they better have better camera men than the clowns operating the system today.
I'm freaking peeved about this.

And its getting worse. This is embarrassing.Gosh absolutely!!!
couldn't watch the game (got GT/Syr) but what yinz are describing is the work of the director
No, it really wasn't. The camera that is supposed to be following the play frequently just stopped following the play. The director doesn't cut from the camera on the ball to a different camera in mid-play. Then there were other times that the camera man zoomed in too close to the action, so you couldn't see what was going on. They did that on the Louisville interception, they zoomed in so close to the Louisville player who had intercepted the ball and was running it back that you couldn't tell if anyone was close to tackling him or if he was completely in the clear and was going to return it for a touchdown.
The director calls for cuts from camera to camera.
I wasn't fortunate enough to be able to watch, I had to listen to Hillgrove. He was as bad as I can remember.
A director during a football game never, and I mean that literally, NEVER, calls for a cut from one camera to another in the middle of a play. It would be way too disorienting to the people watching the game.
There are all kinds of games on right now. Put any of them on right now and tell me the next time you see the camera being used switch right in the middle of a play. I'll wait. The last game tonight should be over before midnight. I'll bet you don't see it once between now and then.
Bad ones do, or ones trying new things. The only other way to go from one shot to another is if the TD switches on his own. The guy operating the camera controls zoom and focus, not what the viewer sees
Right. So when the guy operating the camera that is the one following the play from the snap stops following the play or zooms in too tightly to be able to tell what is going on then that is the camera operators fault. Which is what you disagreed with in the first place.
The camera screw ups during the game yesterday were ALL on the camera operator, not the director or anyone else in the production truck.
