Utilizing breaks between matches.

One of the complaints I get from non-first people and sometimes rookies when they watch events is the lack of things happening in between matches. There is normally just music playing, and an occasional FIRST parody or ad here and there, the game animation at some point, and that's it. The music selection was sooo much better this year (at least at CHS events), but it seems like there are more interesting things events could be doing during breaks.

I know some other threads have briefly touched on this, but I wanted to have a discussion about what kinds of things people want to see inbetween matches for the 2017 season and beyond. Some Ideas that have been previously mentioned include...

-Chairman's videos of more than just the team that wins.
-Reveal vids
-Other types of team produced media
-Interesting matches from current seasons or others.

I don't have a strong opinion about what should be played inbetween matches, but I think that by showing more team produced videos at events, teams will be more likely to produce their own media, increasing the quantity of good team produced media, and will in turn help FIRST "make it loud".
