Jack is a visual effects artist. With his hearing impairment, it was difficult for Jack to receive feedback on his work — an important part of the process in the production of visual effects. He was worried that it would be a barrier to moving up in his career.
The Neil Squire Society’s Makers Making Change initiative, in collaboration with the Tikkun Olam Makers (TOM) Alberta group, is holding the first LipSync Buildathon in Calgary, Alberta on August 25th and 26th, in conjunction with the 2017 TOM:Calgary Makeathon.
We are hiring! We’re looking for a Project Manager for our Makers Making Change initiative, someone who will work hard to continue the rapid growth and development of the initiative, particularly across Canada.
Over the last few weeks, we’ve been hosting a few very welcome guests. A number of Burnaby South Secondary students have been coming to our office a few times a week to build LipSyncs.
We are looking forward to doing more open-style Maker events in the coming months. With that in mind, we are happy to announce that we will be a headline sponsor of the Tikkun Olam Makers (TOM): Alberta Makeathon 2017 from August 24th – 27th in Calgary.
