Re: Gearing up for Recruiting

Ok ryo get ready for my critique! (cracks knuckels, streches)

Let me say one thing first. a video has to stand on its own, ESPECIALY a reqruiting video, You have to remember when you makeing the reqruiting video that this is for outsiders who know nothing about robotics. THE TV and ACCIDENTALY IN LOVE video look like a standard couple-of-kids-got-hold-of-a-camera-and-made-a-movie, video.

ACTION has the more feel of a reqruting video but is not yet there. If your voice over could have explained what robotics was about if would have made a little more sense what the viewer is whatching. Obviously this video cannot reqruit on its own and has to be involved in a presentation. Keep working and you could have a nice video.

How our team reqruits (or at least how i've done it in the past) I present to the class and make robotics seem like this awesome fun party. Then we get a bunch of kids who join and they eventually ween themselves out. The ones who stay are normally the ones you want.

I've made two reqruiting videos so far. One for the general robotics and another for just the animation team.
