The element14 Community team has taken into consideration all of the video entries and the community’s likes and shares.

Here are the ten winners of the Hack Like Heck and Maker Film Festival.

Special Congratulations to our Grand Prize winner Matthew Eargle!

    Congratulations Matthew. I knew you had the turtle power!!! Congrats to everyone in the top ten and the ones that didn't make it was a blast taking part in this competition with you all. I enjoyed everyone's submissions. Looking forward to seeing those none completed submissions in the future being posted.

    Cowabunga!   Very cool Matthew!

     

    There were some very amazing videos and builds and I am sure it was difficult to pick a single winner.  Perhaps there will be guest appearances by some of the top 10 folks in the future.

     

    So, does Heck act as your Splinter to help hone your Ninja Maker skills?

    Congratulations to everyone that put themselves out there and submitted a project video.

     

    I was blown away by the quality of the work from a lot of people not on here so it just goes to show how competitive this competition was and how many great project videos we had!

     

    Keep on doing what you do!   You all know who you are!
