Team 241 Promotional video

This video will be used at our robot unveiling, sent to sponsors, the school board, and used to promote FIRST and recruit new members

I like it, it should help out with sponsors and stuff good job nice music

great job guys! but I think you might want to explain what exactly FIRST is and about the game you are playing, maybe using a voice over. also some of the shots would look better with use of a tripod. but overall great job:D

for promoting, its gonna be more of an opener as a way to start off our speaches but thanks

and ya i wish i had a tri pod…

To improve the presentation, you would be well advised to invest in a tripod rather than relying on a handheld camera. This will reduce camera shake and make it much easier to watch. This is good advice for ANY video.

Remember also, as others have indicated, that your target audience knows little or nothing about FIRST or what your team is trying to accomplish.

Best of luck at this year’s competitions.

Ditto to what they said.

I’m using a combination of handheld shots and ones with the tripod to mix it up a bit. Our team’s teaser should be out sometime this week. At first it was just gonna be a promo for the DVD that’ll be out in March, but after reading the previous posts, I think I should include some FIRST info also.
