Hey CD! A few weeks ago, I made a timelapse video of the PCH District Columbus Qualifier event. What?! You didn’t see it and want to watch a cool timelapse of an entire FIRST Event from setup to teardown? Well then check it out here!
Shameless plug for views aside, This was a fun project to do, but it generated 20,089 photos! Each is 3648 × 2736 pixels and 3.9Mb. As much as I want to, I can’t justify keeping 70GB of photos around that chances are I’ll never use again. So before I clear up the space, I’m offering up any photos of the event that anyone may want. All of them at some point are in the video above. If you want some of them, let me know via a reply or a PM and I’ll send you what I can find.
It was hilarious seeing a sped up version of our robot breaking and all of the pit team leave the stands and go back to the pits in almost a single motion of anxiety. All of them thinking the same thing: “let’s see what’s behind door number one! All of our chain fell off? Yippee!”
I love that every time I post this video someone notices something else cool about it. I never noticed the ebb and flow of teams watching the matches till you mentioned it! I was FTAA there so I was more focused on the field and pit area action.
