The cameraman doesn't decide which shots are shown, and from which camera. The director does.

[@tennisobserver995]

Thanks for your comment. Liked it 👍👍.Actually I know that already but I used the word cameraman to refer to the person who switches which camera feed is shown on the broadcast expecting some amusing reaction from viewers of this video, many of whom would simply think that the cameraman is the person behind the actual camera, as it would be in most cases. You know there is a gulf of difference between impact of video title if it is "Technical Director is so focused on ... or if it is 'Camera Switcher is so focused... or "Technical person is so focused on... rather than the title of this video. Just playing with words here and getting a kick out of the comments because this youtube video posting adventure is getting quite dreary and laborious.😊😊😊

[@jimincal]

Everyone, video decisions happen in the control room! Tennis matches have several cameras around the court, looking at each player plus different angles of the court. The camera operators are generally told what/whom to concentrate on, and there was surely one for Kalinskaya and another for Wang. In the control room are producers and technical directors who can see all the video feeds coming from courtside, and they're the ones who make the decisions about which image (or slo-mo replay) to transmit to the network carrying the match, usually based on their guess as to what the audience wants to watch. IMO, the decision was a good one.

[@tennisobserver995]

Thanks for your detailed comment. Loved it ❤❤. Actually, I know that in big tournaments there is at least one camera focused only on one specific player all the time and in big venues there are even more but at different angles and the cameraman doesn't decide which camera feed is shown on the broadcast feed but I wanted to see if there are (intelligent and meticulous) viewers of this video who would point that out. Just having fun and a kick out of it because this youtube video posting undertaking is getting quite dreary. 😊😊

she's not only beautiful, she's very talented and have improved so much in say the last couple of months; watch out for her at Wimbledon

[@tennisobserver995]

Very good observations. Anna has indeed made great performance improvements in 2024. With a good draw, she could go deep in Wimbledon because her game is tailor-made for grass. I have a feeling she will finally win that elusive first WTA tour level title this year on a fast hard court because she already had her baptisms of fire in the Dubai and Berlin finals which she could have very well won, until she got tight in the end due to inexperience.

[@percival23]

[@minnesotom]

The camera operators are each focused on separate players. In the control room it is the director's decision on who to cut to. The director is the one obsessed with Anna.

[@tennisobserver995]

You're so right. However, whoever you call that person, that one obviously is distracted by Anna's closeup image.

[@einarsd4]

@@IVvOOvVI Elena Rybakina is good looking, but Anna Kalinskaya is way better looking.

[@tennisobserver995]

​@@IVvOOvVI There's a saying that "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." So, different people would have their own criteria of what is more physically and aesthetically appealing. Many people would find Anna Kalinskaya more beautiful than Elena Rybakina but there are also many people who would say otherwise. So no one can fault you or anyone for saying Rybakina is more beautiful. For me, I think Elena has better legs and torso and Anna has a more sensually attractive face. But they are both extremely attractive women and should be celebrated by all tennis fans not only for their beauty but also their impressive tennis skills.

I appreciate the views of Anna, but if you watch a lot of tennis you should know that whoever is serving gets all or the majority of camera time. They only zoom in on the receiver is they make a spectacular shot etc…. Nothing out of the ordinary here.

[@tennisobserver995]

I agree with your comment except for the last part. True the camera always focuses on the server, but normally the camera zooms out as the server tosses the ball to show the full court which is not the case here. At 30-0, the receiver was never shown at all until the point is finished. Three times the receiver is not shown until the ball has arrived to her side of the court. I think what happened to you is that you were so focused on Anna that you failed to notice that irregularity as well 😊😊.
