Hi there,
So guys are getting a lot of attention. In a good way, of course. We've
received some interest in filming a documentary of the competition.
We're talking with a San Francisco film company who has ties with the
Maker Faires. The company is a loose collective lead by the Director and
Producer John Behrens. The only way we want to pursue this is if we can
involve all the teams, and not just the people we fly out to the event
in May. With that in mind would the teams who have shot video be willing
to share that content to be included in film?
We haven't thought through how the final form of this idea will live -
we certainly don't want to create a commercial product on the backs of
your hard work. This might be something that we create just to be shared
with the participants of the event as a keep sake, it could be something
that will promote future Maker Faires or be a charitable project where
revenue, if any, can go back to the Hackerspaces. Like I say, we're not
there yet. We just felt that this time in history is too important not
to capture for the future.
We're going to put some more ideas together and keep everyone in the
loop on the mailing list. In the mean time I created an FTP account on
our server for where interested teams can upload copies of their video.
Ideally I'm sure the editors would appreciate raw footage to work with
but that can tie up your bandwidth for days. I'll leave it to your
judgement. We'll be monitoring the FTP account to make sure we're not
hitting any caps from our provider. I'll send the username and passwords
in separate emails.
