    DCI Cinecast

    in DCI World Class Corps Discussions

    Posted

    The Cinecast here in Fresno, California was HORRIBLE!  The picture quality was bad and it did not even fit the screen!  And thats not even the worst part of the cinecast here.  During the entire broadcast it kept friggin freezing then "no signal".  I didn't even get to see an entire show of any one of the corps except maybe like two or three.  it like cuts out and comes back when they're walking off the field.  signal even dropped during intermission!  most of the people in the theatres were really funny though and definitely provided somewhat of an entertainment when the signal dropped.  Only a few people left after blue devils performed which also had a signal drop during their last piece while others stayed for the entire showing even with the constant signal drops.  in the end everyone got two free movie passes and an apology.  I am just so disappointed.

    I will second what DCIDork said. I think that the only corps that I remember seeing all of their show was SCV, made my day as well as the guy next to me who marched with the SCV Cadets this year.

    In the beginning when they were showing parts of the shows that had performed earlier there was a feed break. We only got to see KK and probably not all of that. Someone from the theater came out and said if it continued we would get a refund. He then came back out later after about 14 feed breaks to say that we would all get two free tickets. He went on to say that if he were talking to a group watching a movie they would all have been gone by then. My guess was that no one had left and I had quit counting at 14 feed breaks. I'm guessing that there were 30 to 40 breaks. I was surprised at how good the crowd was considering. As said above they were entertaining during the feed breaks.

    I would rather have seen the full show than get the two free tickets.
