[TBA/FIRSTCast] Kickoff Coverage 2007 Posted!

[Pavan Dave]

Grats. Honestly I was excited. I am not a big FIRSTCast person but I did listen to the interviews and I was impressed. That and the pumbing thing were pretty informative. I have been looking forward to this. Thanks for the hard work.

Pavan.

You have Gregs audio feed playing on the right speaker and the guest on the left. Instead of playing them on both. It gets annoying in a way. Maybe dont do it in the future. Good episode though. It tunred out nice, espesially in the amount of time you had.

I'm posting it to the FIRSTcast feed now (so you guys will get it automatically).

Horray for sneaking in the shot.

I'll post the behind the scenes look of The Blue Alliance & FIRST Cast going behind the scenes of Kickoff 2007 I was filming as I was walking by when I get a chance to convert/compress and then upload it somewhere.

After personally seeing just how much work these guys put into their video, I have a big apprecation for seeing the final video. Producing such a great, very informative and well structured video in such a short amount of time takes a lot of skill and dedication.

I really think you guys do an awesome job and truly care about the spirit of FIRST.

Keep up the good work

because youtube only allows 10 minute videos without out a directors account it will not be on youtube. however it is currently being prepared for posting on Google video.

The Google Video version of the video is online. Now you don't even need to download anything to watch. Click here to watch the episode on Google Video, or visit our page to download higher quality versions.

LOVE IT!

I downloaded the iPod version before it hit google video, and in the middle of the interview with Paul Gudonis, i got a very LOUD beep, and from then on the audio was off.

Otherwise, it's awesome. I can't wait to show the team on monday, so they get more of an idea of how the rack moves.

Other than the aforementioned problems, it's great. Seeing the rack and the rest of the field is a great help for me at least.
Thanks guys

Yay! i saw myself, haha. well, because i saw the part i was in (I was the long-haired kid describing the map in the beginning), i shouldnt comment on that. but great job on teh rest of the video, very informative, very well editted, and great footage. but as for the speaker channel problem.. yeah, its something to fix for the next video you put out. again, great job :-D

(and just wait til you see the map we have for nationals ;-) )

[Chris Marra]

For at least the iPod version (now encoded by Google Video, and not Videora), there should be no audio channel issues, nor random loud beeps. The other two versions both have their audio channels fixed as well, so the disorientation should be gone.

Turns out Greg didn't check which speaker was wired to the right channel and which to the left while editing

[Jeremytice]

All I can say is Great job you guys. I can tell that you put a lot of hard work into putting this whole thing together. Its quite an accomplishment to drive to the site, videotape and do all of the behind the scenes stuff, drive back, and then edit the video. Awsome!

You are right! They do.
Not really. Especially not while editing the Gudonis segment.
