Filming your video

Thoroughly read through the Rules before filming the video! If your video does not comply with our rules, your entry will be disregarded.

Have your videographer stand directly behind “C” and align the camera up with the center line. The camera is allowed to be turned so as to keep the horse and rider in the frame when riding in the top corners of the arena (between M and H) but no zooming is allowed at all.

The camera should stay as still as possible through out the entire test, including entry and exit.

Start recording before the rider is making their entry and only stop recording after the rider has left the arena.

Make sure the test is recorded in one complete video and not in several shorter clips.

Remember to film your piece of paper at the start of the video before the rider enters the arena. In case you missed it in the Rules… your name, horse’s name, age group, test and date should stand on the paper.
