None are Bacon Alumni but they have all been involved in FIRST for a number of years. (Kelly is technically not an Alumni but he's been involved in the program as a parent and then as a mentor.)

I am an Alumnus of 168 and mentored a couple of teams after I graduated. Andrew is an Alumnus of 212 and has been involved as a mentor on many teams at all levels. We also have at least 10 people, all who are either Alumni of a FRC team or who have been involved with a team in some way. Between that FRC experience, and our combined professional production experience, we're hoping to put together a great show.

Are you guys getting a full booth setup or is it just gonna be mobile mics and stuff.

[James1902]

There will be a desk where the anchors will host match highlights, analysis, pre-recorded stories and they will pitch out to the matches when we're live on Saturday.
The stories from around the regional will be shot with a few different sets of roaming cameras and microphones.

Will this be streamed using YouTube, Ustream, Justin, or other?

[James1902]

The shows will be live streamed on the website www.theroboshow.net with StreamMonkey (the same company that provided the Robot in 3 Days stream.) Then the videos will be uploaded to YouTube at http://www.youtube.com/user/TheRoboShowLive.
