Intro Video

Re: Intro Video

A friend of mine I and have been working on the Bell issue.. We have been trying to keep this under wraps for the time being... we have not received official word from the university that we would be able to bring it in..

Our idea was to have the cheer team strike the bell just prior to leading the team on the field.

Currently our prototype weighs in at about 250 some pounds, and is approximately 4" tall and is made of 3/16" welded steel. ...

Cool. Great work, Slosho.

We are looking for people to volunteer on this project as it is expensive for just 2 guys.
If we have this made, we will need to paint it and letter it (I was thinking Vinyal lettering and automotive paint), and build a clapper (prolly just going to hang like a 12# kettle ball).

Also if someone would like perform an FEA (Finite Element Analysis)to find the harmonics (I Think this can be done.. I'm an EE not a ME), I would be glad to send you the file in solid works format so perhaps the dimensions could be tweaked to increase tone and amplitude..

Thoughts?

I would do 2 different styles, one side current SDSU logo of some kind. the other with the classic look of the rooter king.

Re: Intro Video

Listened to the old Ozzy song from a few years ago (Don't Wanna Stop) while working out tonight.

Saliva's Ladies & Gentlemen was good pump you up music.

Ozzy just makes you want to kick some @$$ and take names later.

Bring back Ozzy!

Re: Intro Video

Another good song for the intro would be "You're Going Down" by the Sick Puppies. The words are really appropriate for the pre-game of a football game. At least it gets me fired up:

Re: Intro Video

Cool. Even ISU-Blue has one:



We need one about twice as long as that.

That. Looks. Terrible.

I concur. Why not just have the band line up like the did in the past couple years and bring the players out thru them?

Were you under the impression that was the only company that makes those?

OK, then. Here's why it was suggested: There is a double-door in the Dykhouse Center for the team to emerge from. Why is that a problem? There is a door post in the center. Thus there's no fast way to get 70 or 80 large men out that door. So if the team is going to emerge from the Dykhouse, either they cut a new door in the building or we get some kind of tunnel to hold the team while they wait OR they come out and stand there while the video plays.

I know with some double doors the center post can be removed... That way large equipment can be moved in through the double door entry. I've never seen this door up close, is that possible in our case?

Re: Intro Video

How about the band lined up for the team to run between on the field, drum line in front of the stands doing some cool drum routine to build the tension. The giant bell sounds three times, two giant propane flame throwers (portable of course) in each endzone on either side of the goal posts fire off with a loud bang, flames and smoke. The band plays Yellow and Blue as the team takes the field. This is all preceeded by a fire up video on scoreboard.

Here's an idea: don't click on it.

It was a tough one, but I'm glad I could help you out.
