During Haccaton, students, under the guidance of professional mentors, will have the opportunity to implement their ideas and test their abilities in creating music videos – creating story ideas, making filming, making sketches. The students will work in several groups under the guidance of mentors and LMMDV teachers, creating several ideas, one of which, in the opinion of the jury, will be realized as a music video during the event.
Hakaton expects to arrive within 24 hours – the music video for the song “I’m Rich” by the group “Carnival Youth”. In the new building on Alejas Street, music, art and design students will work in mixed teams, each led by an LMMDV teacher, helping to implement the ideas created by the young people. The hackaton will also attract bright professionals – mentors: fashion artist Una Pūpola, film director Adriāna Roze, screenwriter and director Marta Elīna Martinsone, cinematographer Gints Bērziņš, photographer Iveta Gabaliņa. LMMDV students have access to modern and appropriate equipment to implement the idea – cameras, computers and software.
The word “hackathon” comes from the English word “hacking”, because the event was originally intended only for programmers who solved complex tasks. However, it later developed on a larger scale, offering new topics to other professions as well. Hackaton is also known internationally as “hack day” and “hackfest”. The working method involves bringing together people with similar interests but different knowledge and experience in a short period of time. This is the best way to find new teammates and pool your knowledge to build new collaborations outside of hackathon. Professional mentors provide support, as well as help to strengthen the skills to cooperate and work in a team. Although the method requires a lot of energy and concentration during the hackathon, the knowledge and contacts gained later are also useful for developing other ideas.
