I especially recommend the "First Seed" Video, as well as the "Appleseed Intro" Video.

This is my favorite.

If anyone has some video of kids shooting crickets, marlins, or rugers, Techres would like to use it, in place of the AR.
Great to link these on the AZ FB page as well O0

We have a Face book Page?

hmmm....perhaps I should resurrect my page...but it seems like way too much time catching up with the past, not enough time moving forward.
Yep, AZ has a FB page, but it is very outdated. I'll be in touch with slinged_in soon to find out who the admin(s) for the page is/are and see if the page can't get rolling again.

TruT,
I think you have a volunteer (PaxxAZ). PaxxAZ, you are correct - too much work to put the past in. Just work forward from the present (and get some helpers to make a team) and everything will be fine.

Where can I get Appleseed Leggings?
Small point, no Face book volunteering for me, not my thing, not something I would do in the right spirit. When I volunteer for something, people know about it.
Now back on topic; the Videos:
All are fun and great. While I think this discussion should be done elsewhere on the forum, I'll give my opinion. With the Caveat of understanding that I really like them all. I really thank those who took the time to do them, they look wonderful.
Daddy Daughter Day, and A Different Classroom I think are the line and tempo for attracting the 99% that have not heard of AS. All we need beyond that is puppies and kittens.
First Seed: The music gives it a sense of impending drama and difficulty. The voices spoken seem to add to that, though the look on his face makes it look like he is having a blast. (the fun aspect is more on mission).

"Your Other Self" in contrast is cute, fun and fresh.
The other videos mentioned are cool, but have aspects to them that may detract or turn off potential attendees. They also have aspects that I feel need to be touched on more strongly. Those issues are.
Safety,
History,
The challenge of becoming a Rifleman
Adaptive Appleseed.
I really do not think the video Appleseed Project, adequately promotes the program. For a reluctant parent or significant other it looks dark.
While testosterone filled videos have their place and audience, it is too easy to watch all the videos on Youtube when doing a bit of research. In context I think Appleseed is awesome, taken out of context we lose our mission.
After seeing these, I am going to try and make sure I take some video of the shoots I am involved with, even if it is just for instructional reasons for a "what to bring". Having extra video or images can be used for anything, including critiquing the Program, and we need to be aware of that.
These are great sugguestions all and I think breaking out to a central place makes a great deal of sense. Can you all see this board:

I can see it, and I'm about as low on the "authorized" food chain as it gets around here.. ;D
I can see it. ^:)^
