This sounds like a great idea! It is certainly something I have heard people asking Disney to do for several years now.
No matter how it is done, someone in this group is not going to like it. This film doesn't have to be supremely accurate to get the message out to an uninformed public. It is the kind of vehicle to blow the lid off this competition. Even if done poorly in our eyes, non-FIRST students and teachers will be "wow"ed at the concept. Case in point was the movie "Space Camp", where there was this mythical place where students could go and play astronaut. The key charachters were eventually launched into space on a shuttle. Space Camp is now a real place, in Huntsville, AL, with students and teachers from all over the country in attendance each year.
I for one would love to volunteer my services to Disney in any capacity, to help this project along. How about it guys? Need a volunteer TV Engineer with 6 years of FIRST experience?
