166 Chop Shop Documentary Submission

[Dan Petrovic]

I'm not sure if this is in the right forum, so feel free to move it.

I don't know if you guys heard about the TV Station from St. Louis that will be filming teams during Build Season to make a documentary. We agreed to do this, and one of the things they asked for was a short video explaining who we are and everything.

Here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJJns709FRM) is our submission.

The quality isn't that great because we already know that Youtube quality isn't very good and the program I used to edit the video includes a feature that uploads the video onto Youtube. That feature reduces the quality even more.

It's not meant to be pretty, it's just meant to be informative. I think it's pretty good for it's purpose.

Comments? Thoughts?

This has been brought up already in this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=59575) and this thread (http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59623).

Just to clarify one point, the production team has not yet selected which teams they will be tracking during the season. They will not be making that decision until some time after December 7. All the teams that are agreeing to participate in this phase of the effort need to be aware that you are not yet part of the final documentary that will be filmed for PBS. You are just agreeing to prepare a video about your team and submit it to the production company as a "virtual audition" for their consideration. After reviewing the audition tapes and associated materials, the production crew will make their selections and notify the teams that will actually be in the film.
