FIRST Parody Fatigue and other Media Things [long]

[Sperkowsky]

Let me preface this statement by saying that I have done a lot of the media stuff for me team since I joined.

First may be more then robots but being real here its mostly about robots. First cares about videos a little. There is chairman's, a reveal, and the occasional contest. We are personally submitting for the DOW contest and I spent my entire Wednesday in a lab getting B-Roll.

Media is about creativity. We can not expect FIRST a robotics competition to do more video contests, awards, ect. There are already enough.

However, there is room for you to do your thing. Recap videos are cool. I have seen some teams do weekly shows. I run a weekly show called F4 and if you would like to be on and talk about media PM me and ill give you details. And then, there is event livestreams. That is another good place to have some fun with live video.

Overall, I am not too sure what your getting at.

Is your goal to get FIRST to accept STEAM and add more media awards?
