my FIRST power drill
 

Alright, so everyone has seen that video they play at the beginning of each regional event (I think they played it at kickoff, too). Its the video that starts off very quietly saying

MY FIRST: Pet, steps, etc....

then some wicked cool music kicks in and it says
MY FIRST: Power Drill, team shirt, venue, etc...

I'm wondering where I can find that video. My team (229) wants to use this video at events like open houses and activities fairs.

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

the video is called "Get Ready for your FIRST"

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Also, anyone know what that "wicked cool music" is?

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

most likely it was made just for the video, since its timed perfectly with the graphics.
it wouldnt be very hard for you to extract the music from it though.

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Maybe someone on Team 190 would know since the vids are hosted on WPI's website?

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

thanks!:D

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

there is one incorrect saying on the video, at least I think, instead of "Your FIRST Cicuit Board" it should be "Your FIRST FRIED Circuit Board"

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

I think it should say something about your, "FIRST sleep deprived and homeworkless night!"

lol, our captain just pointed out to me that we're in the video at like 1:09-1:11

Never noticed that even after seeing it 6 times already. :p

Hehe, the second "big kid" picture is of our drive team just before our robot fell over and the arm snapped, needless to say we were yelling and stuff on kickoff day!

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Yeah extracting it would be easy but it sounds really cool and like there may be more to it, does anyone know if this is true and if so what the rest of the song is called?

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Thanks for the idea dude. That is definitely the kind of quick movie we can use in demos. The video could just as easily have been edited to the song so you might want to email FIRST and see if they've got it. Probably not going to result in anything but its worth a shot.

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Most likely, it's music that was purchased from a production music company that specializes in background music in ads and stuff. Some of it is public domain; don't know if this is.

You can't really put a name to the song, and it's probably not on iTunes, either. Catchy, though.

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

Although the music they used last year is an actual song, I have heard it in a commercial.

Re: my FIRST power drill
 

i don't think that the music was made for this video i have also heard this song on this commercial:
