The aforementioned Flip camera costs less than two Victors last year; you might even fare better if you're willing to wake up at dark:30 on Black Friday. Editing and burning software is nearly ubiquitous--if the school doesn't have it, I'm willing to bet that teams are no more than two degrees (friend of a friend) removed from it. If that doesn't work, get to Googling or calling down the yellow pages to see if there's a local production outfit that would help in your efforts to create a three-minute video. If
that doesn't work, I've got a MacBook with iMovie '08 and iDVD. Let's go.

Google did indeed donate a still camera in 2006. I don't think video cameras (particularly ones capable of DVD-grade output) are down enough in cost to get donated, but the way that prices are plummeting makes me think we'll see it before a water game.
