Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

Hi all, school's just around the corner and I'm looking for a promotional video (about 2-3 min in length) to show students at the Welcome Back Assembly. Basically, something to get more students involved in FIRST robotics. Any ideas?

Here are some nice videos http://usfirst.org/community/resourcecenter.aspx?id=652. I suggest 2009 LUNACY Opening Video.

Re: Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

I recently used the Promo Video and Student Voices videos on the same page but it was at a busy show/demo and I didn't even bother with sound. They did catch eyes.

Re: Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

I would suggest one of the videos on the FIRST site from 2004, that actually has a little robotics in it. Last year's game animation couldn't hurt too.

See if you can also market in physics classes and stuff too in order to buy more time

Youtube does not have the best quality but FIRST World tube channel page has some great clips.

Re: Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

Try some of the 1-minute President's Circle responses:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLW0_...eature=related

The FIRST promo video is pretty great, except it's about 7 minutes long. And I like the Jim Lehrer story too.
http://www.usfirst.org/community/res...er.aspx?id=652

The only other suggestion I have for you is try and find some good videos here on ChiefDelphi.
Here's a great one that was posted this summer:

Re: Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

I think a good promo is the PBS documentary teaser video on youtube, and it can also help promote folks to view the documentary at their local channel PBS.

Re: Looking for a good FIRST robotics promo video

I found this video recently, thought it was a nice mix of several different promotionals, and it's a little under 5 minutes long...
