Transform your team’s media presence with our media training!
Just ahead of the 2024 FRC season, we are releasing several in-depth training videos on our YouTube channel that will go over the specifics of building your team’s brand, social media platforms, and teaching useful skills in filmmaking and photography.
On top of that, we are hosting office hours to ask questions about media every second and fourth Wednesday of the month 8-9pm Eastern (US) during the 2024 FRC build and competition season (January – April). Use the sign up form to gain access to Office Hours.

Media FAQs
Our primary camera is a Sony FX30 with a Sony E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS lens, but we also use two Canon M50’s with a variety of Canon M-Mount lenses for our backup shots or photography.
We use both Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve 18 to create all of our video content.
Cameras
For both videography and photography we suggest the Sony ZV-E10 for its relatively cheap price of $699 and its hybrid performance capable of taking RAW photos, and video shooting at 4k 30fps. It has a high quality 24.2 MP APS-C sensor that allows it to work with a wide variety of Sony E mount lenses.
Lenses
Priced at $649, we suggest using the Sony E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS lens for its supreme versatility and optical stabilization to be paired with the Sony ZV-E10.
Tripod
For video coverage of events, smooth motion is vital, and that can easily be achieved with a high quality fluid-head tripod. The $95 Coman KX3939Q5S Professional Fluid Head Tripod gives the best of fluid-head qualities for a budget.
