Video analysis can consist of two parts: biomechanical and tactical (or notational) analysis.  In biomechanical analysis,  usually a single stroke, or series of strokes is filmed and analyzed using tools such as slow motion or split-screen.  Tactical analysis usually consists of filming and entire game or match and analyzing patterns of shots or statistics such as number of errors, or percentage of winners from a certain part of the court.
