Message: [QUOTE="OrlandoCuse, post: 162822, member: 115"] Duke has always played a trick on the TV viewer to make it look like they play in a more intimidating arena. 1) They place the TV camera high up so that only the student section is viewable. You only see one side of the arena consisting of about 10 rows. 2) They placed the TV on the opposite side of the court from typical view. Usually you see the scorer's table and team benches. At Cameron, the benches on are on the other side (out of view) of the typical TV picture. This focuses everything on the student section again. 3) They place the microphones in or near the student section, making it sound louder than it actually is on TV. Just to clarify things, I don't disparage Duke for playing these tricks with the camera. I've often advocated that Syracuse should do the same thing, especially with football games. I believe the camera angle at the Dome is way too flat. [/QUOTE]
