Lightbulb FIRST on TV!

For TV coverage for FIRST we should do one of those shows they have on the Disney Channel where they follow a sports team around for a season starting at anxiousness before tryouts and ending at some sort of tournament or finals at the end of the season, that would be the perfect way to show a FIRST competiton. It could start with recruiting sponsors and members for a team, then show kickoff and brainstorming, building, and animation taking place. They could interview team members on how they feel about the program and how they think everything is going on the team. As it nears the end of the season you'll start seeing the overnighters and crazy running around teams experience trying to meet there deadlines. With a show setup like this when you finally get to the actual competition you understand whats going on, team dynamics, and feel connected to the kids in the program. At competitions, it would be great to show the excitement to compete, the stress of needing to get your robot ready for the next match with only a couple minutes to fix a problem, the relief when your robot works in the match, The sense of accomplishment you feel when your robot does well whether or not it scores well. This is a really good way to truly capture FIRST and what it is really all about and why people who do it truly love the program.
