Incentive weekend for creative industries competition winners
Incentive weekend for creative industries competition winners
In November of 2019 Goethe Institut Nancy (F) and the Saarland provinces department of economic affairs DOCK11 decided to pair up their creative economy competitions “OH MY GOETHE!” and “Kreativsonar Vol. 5″ and to give their 2020 winners a surprise incentive weekend in the stunningly beautiful city mansion of Goethe Institut in Nancy sometime in the summer or early fall of 2020. And they gave me the job to work out a 3-day concept around contemplation, visibility, networking and professionalisation, and then program and conduct it as well. Then unfortunately corona came along and we transformed our plans into an online experience combining video conferences with two 3D-virtual-reality worlds, using 3D-goggles and avatars and all. With the help of XR Hub Bavaria we could even set up a virtual expo with all the partipating winner projects inside so everyone could meet and connect. Plus workshops on guerilla marketing and fast video content creation on your mobile phone by Bianca Rathay of SoHandy. Intense and exciting all at the same time!!
