Slanted squats helppp!

A little pedantic note; would it possible to place the camera level (both views)? I think it would help giving feedback.

Sure, the latest form check video is filmed in two different angles. Check them out!

Maybe I didn't explain myself correctly, so let me try again.
Let's take the side view.
In the video, the safety bar of the rack appears tilted (or slanted, to use a term you like). This means the camera is not level; if it was, the safety bar would appear horizontal.

If the camera is tilted, it's more difficult to see what your position and angles are relative to the floor; it makes even judging if you are hitting depth harder. It's difficult enough to give feedback on someone's squat, without having to mentally rotate the video.

So, please, make sure your camera is level, and in a position relevant to the question you are asking. For example, if you think your squat tilts on a side, a level, dead-rear, full view is better than a three-quarter, slanted one.
