geneb "ums" his way through an interview...

Post by geneb »

This was done at Aylen Jr. High in February for their TSA program. (Technology Student Association - I thought about asking if I had to take my shoes off before the interview, but I didn't think they'd get the joke...)

They're entering a contest with the website they're supposed to be developing about 3D printing. I haven't seen it yet.

I have no idea why they uploaded it at 360p considering the camera the student was holding was hi-def. He was holding it by hand because some dork stole the tripod shoe...go figure. :)

I wish their ability to use a tripod was on par with their list of actually decent questions.

Good luck to their program, it looks like they're off to a good start. Especially for a Junior High.

Maybe it was to hide the fact that the entire interview was shot out of focus :lol: I'm pretty sure that this is the first time the person shooting the interview has used a video camera...framing of the shots were never quite right and had the steadiness of a bad Blair Witch Project sequel. All joking asside, was the intent of this video to be something that they would submit as part of their project?

I couldn't get much into it! I'm sure you did fine, but yeah... the conditions weren't ideal to say the least. :mrgreen:

Focus is SO overrated. :)

It's part of some kind of contest they're entering. I'm kind of fuzzy on the details, but I hope they win.

I wish I'd known the interview was going to go on as long as it did - I would've had the Orion printing something. I was there for nearly an hour if memory serves.

Their teacher was a short little grandmother type that was very enthusiastic about 3D printing.

Wasn't on purpose, but what the hell! I'll take credit for it anyway. :D

You should've printed them a new tripod shoe. That would've been awesome.

The whole thing was kind of rushed - the instructor pulled the two kids out of classes they were in that day to do the interview. Had there been more time, I might have thought about it....but probably not. :D
