A week ago today I was in Bentonville Arkansas with the robotics team for the OMB off-season regional, it was a mixed bag, plenty of fun, very tiring, a little stress and a little suck. All and all an excellent road trip.
It was also the first gig that our fancy new camera snake saw any action on (here's Harry in the bleachers rocking our camera) and the guy performed like a champ! It wasn't the best production I've worked on, Blocked ports meant using uStream instead of WOWZA and volunteer camera men were somewhat shaky, but once we got rolling there was no stopping us, and we served 158 unique viewers.
And Angel holds down the "booth" full of laptops hosting the stream, commentary, and twitterfeed
We also had our fair share of trouble off the court, namely with a ATV we nicknamed "the squirter" because of its apparent distaste for engine coolant...
And of course! what road trip would be complete if someone didn't lock their keys in the car the morning we were set to leave?
But hey! Like I said, just the right balance for the perfect road trip. It was a blast and I can't wait to take the trip again (hopefully) next year!
