Still Hacking Like Heck

makerkaren
makerkaren over 7 years ago

Hey folks,

 

The Hack Like Heck contest is coming to a close. We have 17 wonderful final video entries. (Check them out here!) I hope you all have had a chance to view them. I know I enjoyed watching them all!

Those of you who have been with us since the beginning of the contest saw the Declarations of Intent and audition videos come in throughout March. We had a total of 35 makers declare their intent to participate. What we want to know is, what happened to the other 18 people who didn't quite get a video in for the final phase of the contest?

 

I'd like to ask those 18 individuals:

baldengineer, mrvolt, binaryben, samdiyfreeman, ajkatz83, monkeybearblue, tomruns12, fyaocn, sprybug,starfire, rocits, cfoote7, takieda, ironfoxgaming, benbasic, 94toyotapickup, ammsyed, zamek.

 

What motivated you to enter the Hack Like Heck contest?

Are you still interested in Hacking Like Heck?

Would you like to share why you weren't able to submit a final video?

 

element14 is still looking for Video Content Partners. We understand that life happens and don't want anyone to miss out because of that. You haven't missed your chance. If you're still interested in becoming an element14 Video Content Partner, please tell us about it in the comments below. Here's your chance to show us your stuff, your time to shine!

    Hi Karen: When I saw that Ben was leaving it was almost unreal to me. I have enjoyed what he was doing and felt like an online mentor to me. I figured I had a chance just as much as anyone else to enter…

    It did. I figured I knew more than I anticipated that I did; I just had never created an original design until this moment lol. Seeing I have all the parts, some shot recorded and made a design, I'll likely…

    As I explained in a post, I was having some engineering trouble at the very end and knew I couldn't complete the project and a video on time. While the extension is exactly what I needed, a life event…

    I like your idea of a 24hour challenge maker VS maker..that could make for some exiting content.

    But i have to say that my first 24hour challenge was very exhausting..but rewarding, so keep in mind it is not for the weak... ;-)

    I'll bet they are exhausting. Even as I wrote it I was remembering previous times I've been awake over 24 hours...

     

    What's your favourite 24 build you've done? I'd be keen to go watch it. Also, do you build over 24 hours straight, or in split time periods?

    I try to do as much in a straigth session as possible, but I don't count paint drying time, so the
    last 24hour thing was built in about 22hours on 3 individual days of a weekend.(the outdoor scenes were shot a while later).
    most of my builds were done in less than 24hours but I just announce it since the last german video.


    I'm currently thinking about switching back to english again...
