On February 26th, Turner Broadcasting, one of our Peachtree Regional
sponsors, will be offering all of the Georgia FRC teams an opportunity to
learn about video production, story boarding, and how to produce a quality
video from footage shooting. Please see the attached file for more
information. This is a unique chance to see how it all happens at Turner
and how to implement what you learn to your own team's media presentations.

Be sure to take advantage of this great opportunity, which also includes a
tour of the studio. Each team is eligible to send 2-3 representatives.

Thank you,

Tina Ray
GeorgiaFIRST Planning Committee Co-Chair

Please post in this thread if you would like to participate in this exciting offer.

Most sincerely,
Paul Han

I would like to encourage those who plan on becoming the historian should seize this opportunity.

This sounds so amazing! I'd love to do it, but I think someone more experienced should go. Rikhil is right about future historians. Wouldn't it be just so cool if we had video and pictures from every competition and some of the build days? We could have an awesome journal with dates and everything as to what we did that day too!

I wouldn't mind doing this, and I agree with Rikhil, that the historian, or anyone who might wish to take over the historian job, should go.

Just something to be noted, I can be the temporary historian if we feel that we need one this season as taking pictures of the meetings and whatnot can get us mentioned more in the yearbook and other school publications. Maybe this will attract more potential members! (Just as a note, I think that Robotics has been in three different pages in the yearbook, having large, noticeable photos in all of these.

)

I like Bailey's idea and Andrew I think that would be excellent. Haha of course you had nothing to do with those 3 large photos

. But good job haha keep it up

The Turner Broadcasting Multimedia Course has ended.

A quick note: take all chances, every chances. No one except Samir and me applied to go... and we're juniors. There was a team with loads of members, much greater than 3 - and everyone enjoyed their time at Turner. Don't be afraid in taking chances

We weren't eligible to send more than three, I thought... and of course, while you programmers are having fun there, someone has to tend the code back home.

Didn't seem like there was much tending going on.

Maybe if we had more vigor to join the program, we would've been able to ask GeorgiaFIRST about sending more than three members.
Programmers are heavily affected by the law of diminishing marginal returns. To be frank, having multiple programmers in one session won't help us be more productive.
The 'having fun there' part should be replaced by 'receiving technical lectures for hours and thinking of how to scout without being too intrusive." Yeah, it was fun there, but it was fun because Samir and I've learned loads of stuff at Turner.
