So, while comps and presentations abound, it's not all there is to Imagineering, I think we can agree!
This thread will be a place where you get to play hide and go seek...with KNOWLEDGE!
It's a game, not a comp. No sign ups, no judges (except all of us), and no sanctioning (meaning, you don't earn ICS points, this is just for fun!)
Anyone and everyone is free to play along.
So, what is this game?
I am going to start by naming a real world Imagineer. This will be the Imagineer of the Week.
YOUR job, players, is to research everything you can about the Imagineer of the Week, and find something unique from them or about them.
You get ONE submission post, and for it, you MUST put "Submission - (insert imagineer name)" as the first line.
From that point forward, you can link whatever you found that was interesting. It MUST be linked. Not hearsay. So, for example, it could be a youtube interview that was interesting and unique, or it could be a project that they worked on and their contribution to it.
Reputable blogs (like longforgotten or doombuggies) may be considered sources for this, but random forum posts may not. You MUST include the source in your post.
Your final post may also include a max 5 sentence (or so) paragraph summing up why you found this so unique and interesting.
Votes will be counted as "likes". Meaning, don't like every Submission post you see! What you like, counts as a vote!
THAT SAID, if you submit, before Sunday Evenings at 9p Eastern, you MUST have liked at least ONE post to be eligible to host the following week.
New Hosts should post their Imagineer of the Week challenge before Midnight Sunday, if possible.
At the end of the week (which, for this week, we'll say Sunday, just cause I'm starting late), the person with the most likes on their submission takes over the thread as the host, and gets to pick the new Imagineer of the Week and IS ALLOWED to make minor changes to the week's challenge...with ONE RULE in mind.
Short posts, quick challenges, accessible to all (so, no massively creative challenges that require multiple creative disciplines...)
An example of a future challenge could be:
"The Imagineer of the Week is Marty Sklar! Your challenge is to write a Haiku about Marty Sklar! Best Haiku with the most likes becomes host next week!"
That sort of thing.
So, to get started, I'm going to do this weeks Imagineer of the Week!
And I'm going to start with the biggest and best one of all.
-------------------------------------------------------
The Imagineer of the Week is...Walt Disney!
Your challenge is to find the most unique interview, on youtube or print, that you can. We've all seen the famous EPCOT speech, or the opening ceremony at Disneyland...no...you need to dig deeper. Find those rare and unique interviews and off the cuff responses the man was so famous for.
Good luck!
(edit - general discussion is allowed in the thread, that's why Submission needs to be the first line of the Submission posts, to set it apart from general discussion)
