To get a bit back on topic,
here's a list of sponsors that have supported
FIRST all these years. I think most of these, if not all, are nation-wide companies. And of course, you know that engineers can be found almost anywhere, especially within these companies. As for the video idea, a music video or even a slide show set to some cool music boosts the awesome factor of designing and building robots by about 10 times. Best of luck!
