The Importance of Pitching Video Analysis
December 3, 2008
Having your Pitching video analyzed by someone who understands Physics Driven Velocity Mechanics is critical in moving up levels of the game. The effectiveness of this process is the visual aspect. We are mainly visual learners. We can watch someone perform an action and then almost repeat it perfectly. This proves that we learn information so much faster visually. In any baseball career time is of the essence. All of us retired ball players, wish we knew what we learned many years after the end of our careers, when we were actually playing the game. This is because it took longer to learn this stuff than the window of opportunity we where given.
If you would like TopVelocity.net to analyze your pitching video, please follow the instructions below.
How to shoot your video?
Shoot two angles for your video. An angle from behind the pitcher and an angle from the throwing arm side of the pitcher. Make sure that the camera is not higher than the pitchers shoulders. Also make sure the camera is stationary.
Each angel should have two or three pitches of video.
How do you package and send your video?
Compress your video into a digital format. For example, DVD, Divx, AVI, MOV, WMV, MPG or any other common format. Burn the format to a CD or DVD. Visit the “Contact Us” page and request our mailing address to send the video too.
Video Analysis
At TopVelocity.net, once we receive your video, we will analyze your mechanics with advanced video software. This software will allow us to do a comparison of your delivery to a Professional Pitcher with a similar frame as yours. We will then use the software to generate overlays and slow motion clips to give you an extremely detailed analysis. We promise you will be impressed.
Once the video has been analyzed, we will post your analysis here on the forums. You can then watch your analysis.
Our video analysis is very popular with the pitchers we have worked with. It is a great tool because they can always go back and look at the video. We do recommend that you have a video analysis done at least every 2 months.
If you are interested and would like to send your video in today, your first analysis is FREE. Contact Us
