Web Made Movies hack day at Open Video Conference!

September 10, 2010

As the Open Video Conference in New York draws closer (Oct 1-3), we’re excited to announce our hack day on Sunday October 3rd.

The Web Made Movies hack day is a chance for filmmakers, developers and anyone interested in creating Open Video to turn the inspiration of OVC into action.

Are you a videomaker?
Its a great opportunity to meet with people who can help you explore the potential of HTML5 video – for instance, applying the Popcorn.js video library to your videos to pull data from flickr, twitter, wikiPedia and Google Maps into your video experiences.

Are you a software developer?
Meet with the folks who have created the Popcorn.js library and brainstorm how to improve and expand its scope. Meet with like-minded developers who need help or have some to offer. Learn and teach.

Just curious?
We’ll be featuring a series of short talks and presentations that will spark your imagination and have you leaving the OVC weekend with some concrete next steps to apply to your future work. And we will have lots of coffee during, beer afterwards, and some pioneers of internet video hanging around.

If you’re interested in coming, it would be great if you could fill in a small google spreadsheet form – it will help us in designing the day and pairing up video creators with developers.

Find out more about Web Made Movies, Mozilla’s open video lab.

Details of the event: Sunday October 3rd, 10 am - 721 Broadway
