A simple tutorial is sent to show how to use the Dartfish TV ( frame by frame, slow motion, etc.). *Only available on Advanced Video Analysis ( From double axel jump).
  • How is it working?
    In the first step, you must film your jump from 3 different points of view. According to the trajectory of your jump, you need to refer to the drawing to know the optimal point of view. You can film HDR with your smartphone (Recommended 50-60fps at 4K, in landscape mode ) or with a video camera ( Camcorder). In the second step, you can go ahead and make the payment. You will use a secure link to purchase one online video analysis for one jump. ( One analysis, One jump). Stripe accepts all major credit cards from Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discovery. After the payment is made, you will receive a confirmation email. This email contains a link to upload the three videos. You can upload more if you feel it’s useful. More is better than less. To analyze a triple or quad jump, it is recommended to join another jump. The main idea is to understand how the skater moves. You will also have a link to fill out a basic information form. This is basic information to offer you the best solution (the data are only for internal usage). Once everything is set ( videos uploaded and form filling, which takes 2 minutes max), we will send you an email to confirm that your videos are okay. Then, in 2 business days (on average), you will receive your advanced analysis in English with data, technical advice, and a video comparison. All data are explained simply with various graphics to help you reach your goals.
  • After receiving my advanced analysis, may I ask questions or get more information on the suggested solution?
    Perform’Live provides advanced video analysis services. The definition of service is the action of helping. We are glad to help each skater we are working with. Yes, of course, feel free to ask any questions.
  • What do you do with the information form?
    It’s to get a global picture of the skater. Knowing all this information helps to formulate tips, advice, and other suggested exercises. The collected information is for internal use only. You can request to delete your data by contacting us.
  • I received my video analysis, but I need clarification on understanding some words. What do you think I should do?
    You don’t need to worry; you can first download and read the figure skating vocabulary document, and if you still have some doubts, feel free to message us.
  • How many jumps can I analyze when I order an online video analysis?
    You can analyze ONE jump you want to explore. If you have a special request, do not hesitate to contact us directly.
  • Can I trust that Perform'Live will not share the analysis of my project on social media?
    Yes, you can trust Perform'Live to maintain strict confidentiality regarding the analysis of your project. We understand the sensitivity of the information we handle and are committed to respecting the privacy of our clients. Our team strictly adheres to a confidentiality policy that ensures the protection of all data and analysis related to our clients' projects. Rest assured, your analysis will not be shared on any social media platforms or with any third parties without your explicit consent. Your privacy and trust are of the utmost importance to us at Perform'Live.
  • How do I film the jump I want to analyze?
    In 4K with 60FPS, In Landscape mode. Filming from the three camera angles (green dots) is necessary to get a global review and understanding of the movement. We designed a plan for where to position the film for each jump. Of course, these positions are approximative; you can film once and review your video to see if you correctly watch the take-off from the profile, front or back. It would be best to film the jump each time from the preparation until the end (3-4s after the landing). You can film behind the hockey glasses, but getting as few elements as possible is better to block the view. A video where the skater is well-framed and stabilized would be a plus.
  • I don't have 4K on my phone, but UHD mode?
    For the display market, UHD means 3840×2160 (exactly four times HD), and 4K is often used interchangeably to refer to that exact resolution. However, 4K means 4096×2160 for the digital cinema market, or 256 pixels wider than UHD. The most important feature is to film your jumps at 60 frames per second in the highest video quality possible.
  • Can I film with my smartphone?
    Yes, of course. Here are a few tips for filming with a smartphone: • Shoot in landscape mode • Stability – use both hands and a portable tripod. • Zoom – move closer for better quality rather than zoom. • Light – record in a location as much light as possible. • Wipe your lens – clean your lens with a lint-free cloth to avoid marks on your video.
  • How should I film a lutz?
    Please follow the drawing below; you should put it on the green dot three times. In general, there are two different trajectories for the lutz. Just pick one of the two other options:
  • How should I film a salchow, an axel, or a loop?
    Follow the drawing below; the green dots show the different camera angles where you should film a salchow, an axel, or a loop.
  • How should I film a toe loop or a flip?
    Could you follow the drawing below? It would be best if you positioned the green dots.
  • I have to film the jump three times; what if they still need to be done precisely the same?
    The online video analysis services aim to help the skater as much as possible by offering a scientific and technological opinion. If the three jumps filmed from the three different camera angles are too other, Arnaud Muccini will contact you to discuss.
  • The trajectory of my jump differs from the examples; what should I do?
    If your jump doesn’t follow the trajectory of these drawings, remember to film once from the front, once from the profile, and once more from the back. These three different camera angles are a minimum to produce a complete analysis. You can film more jumps if you’ve got time and send them to Arnaud. You will be informed quickly if there is any problem with the video.
