Anyone is free to join and participate in the prototyping and development of new ideas. The event is inspired by the concept of a Hackathon, where the people collaborate during 24-48h to learn about new technologies and develop new and innovative projects and ideas; and also from the concept of a Game-Jam where a similar thing is done in the context of games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, what makes the \u201cHack\u2019n\u2019Jam\u201d special is our unique very broad \u201cEntertainment\u201d topic and the combination of participant profiles. While everyone is welcome, in this event the disciplines of Games and Entertainment Technologies, Film and TV Production and CG-Art and Animation are combined for a greater good.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such an event and collaboration is done with one sole purpose: innovation. This innovation is archived through our pillars: \u201cOne-for-all\u201d so every project combines as many disciplines as possible, \u201cFun and serious\u201d so it&#8217;s not only fun but has social impact and inclusion, and for this year \u201cAI Entertainment\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Let\u2019s be clear, this is a one-of-a-kind event, so instead of fixing up a problem or a specific topic, all ideas and projects will be allowed as long as they align with the pillars. Best ideas will be awarded and creativity as well. Still, topics and suggestions will be available for the participants to choose on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here you can find our topics suggestions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Diversity and inclusion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New and fair entertainment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Games \/ entertainment experiences for social impact.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment production (improvements in production processes).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mixed reality experiences.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The type of applications can be (but is not limited to):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Games and serious games.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Entertainment applications.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Short movies and animations.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Interactive or AI generated movies or streams.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PC and smartphone applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Awards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The prices are still meant to be defined, but this text includes the proposal of what we consider could be an ideal set of prices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prices: 1st Price*: TBA NOK, 2nd Price: TBA NOK, 3rd Price: TBA NOK<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the prices, the event wants to spread culture awarding games to the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Price \u201cPlease, explain!\u201d to the Best Idea: 1 x Street Fighter 6 (PS5) + More surprises!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Price \u201cOne-For-All\u201d to the Best Cooperation: 1 x It Takes Two (Switch) + More surprises!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Price \u201cFun and Serious\u201d to the best Social Inclusion: 1 x Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom (Switch) + More surprises!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Price \u201cEntertain ME\u201d to the Best AI Entertainment related Idea: 1 x Elden Ring (PS5) + More surprises!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>* Prices will be given in the form of different gift cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Schedule Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The event will be held on Feb 2-7, but the creative weekend happens on Feb 2-4:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td style=\"width:120px\"><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Description<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"width:120px\"><strong>Location<\/strong>                        <\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Jan 12th<\/td><td>Registration Starts<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/nettskjema.no\/a\/394880\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/nettskjema.no\/a\/394880\">Here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Feb 1st<\/td><td>Registration Closes<\/td><td><a href=\"https:\/\/nettskjema.no\/a\/394880\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/nettskjema.no\/a\/394880\">Here<\/a><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Feb 2nd<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>16:00 &#8211; Hack\u2019n\u2019Jam Presentation and Meeting Ceremony<\/strong><br>* Presenters: <b>Dr Iv\u00e1n Jos\u00e9<\/b> &amp; <b>Dr Victor Manuel P\u00e9rez Colado<\/b><br>&#8220;This presentation will introduce you to the creative weekend format, tasks, awards and more.
