DRILL SUBMISSION
FORMAT: All submissions must be sent as a playable Digital Video Disk (DVD).
DVDs are easily creatable with video creation software that comes standard on most
computers; examples: Windows Movie/DVD Maker, iMovie, and Sony Vegas.
IMPORTANT: Any submission will not be returned. If you desire a copy of your
performance then make two DVDs.
QUALITY: Submissions must be of reasonable quality. The higher the quality of the
image the more accurately your drill can be evaluated. If a video is pixilated and/or
grainy then it may negatively affect your score. AUDIO quality must be at the level
that we can hear the cadet commander
Editing: Events must be presented as single un-edited blocks. The space between
events may be shortened for convenience, but while an event is in progress any
signs of editing will result in your disqualification.
Title Screen: Your DVD must have the following information presented in a splash
screen before the first event.
A. School Name
B. Branch of Service
C. Date of Filming
Additional title screens before each event would be helpful but are not required.
