Start with height. A slightly elevated camera position gives the tracking system better sight lines and produces cleaner, more tactical footage for review.
Use the full field context early, then tighten only when the system has reliable subject lock. This helps avoid clipping runs in behind or missing off-ball movement.
Before kick-off, test your mount position, check horizon level, and confirm that your recording settings match the lighting conditions. A two-minute preflight saves a lot of bad footage.
