Any movement of the hand, arm or foot -- any movement -- that is normally part of a shooting motion is the beginning of the try. If the player gathers the ball and lifts his arm one millimeter toward the basket, he's in the act of shooting. If he is fouled at that point, you award free throws, even if he still has his back to the basket. The location of the ball has nothing to do with it.
