-A lot of the video doesn't deal with Chairman's stuff (some of it almost felt more like a robot reveal). It's not a problem per se, but you could use that time to describe your outreach.
-Some of the shots (especially at the start) are pretty shaky.
-Most of your outreach is described via voice-over, without any visuals. (Could be because no one remembered to take any pictures - no worries, just do it next year!)

You're off to a great start, and the production quality on your video is fantastic (especially for a first-year submitter). Congrats on submitting, and best of luck this year!

To start I'm aware I need to adjust sound levels. It sounded fine with my headphones but I'm running studio headphones off an amp so it can be deceiving. I realized how bad it was when I played the video on my TV. Basically I'll adjust the levels and reupload it soon but our regional isn't for a few weeks anyway.
As for the beginning shots I actually wanted the rough shakey look. Next year I'm going to get similar shots with my drone (didn't have time to get written permission from the superintendent).

Also yes we need to get more video of outreach. The issue is bringing my equipment to school being it's my personal equipment. It's not like I use a tiny camcorder. I'm running a d7000 rig with a prime lens follow focus and numerous pieces of sound equipment.
Maybe I should just leave a gopro at school or something.

Thanks for the feedback
