There are 2 things you cam do. The simple way is by changing the cameraMaxDist and/or cameraOffset variables in the datablock.
eg.

cameraOffset=50;
cameraMaxDist =50;

Or by actually moving the node/joint named "cam" in the model itself. You will need a modelling package like Milkshape 3D or 3D studio Max, to name a few. Then export and put in game.
