The aim of the Digital Entrepreneurs and Video Artists (DEVA) Hack is to create an employability resource for young people designed to support them develop and articulate their professional career identity and aid in their development in Industry 4.0.
By engaging in the process of creating a video portfolio, learners will gain knowledge and understanding of soft skills, awareness and insight into job readiness and develop their confidence and motivation to pursue digital and creative careers.
Hackathons are a perfect opportunity to gather a diverse community with different talents and work toward the solution of self-empowerment, entrepreneurial thinking and practical knowledge that will help in areas of employment, further education and personal growth.
DEVA Hack offers an amazing range of activities for all of our attendees. From exploratory free time to planned programming, our staff are always there to ensure it’s a fun and safe experience for all.
Our Approach
• Network of Digital Entrepreneurs and Video Artists working as mentors.
• 3-day hackathon with Year 12 /13 college and sixth form students.
• 40 students per hack and they work in groups of 10 with their mentors.
• Aligned to Gatsby Careers Benchmarks and mapped to AQA curriculum for Media Studies.
• Produce a personal video portfolio entirely from a smartphone.
• Workshops in personal brand, digital tech, scripting, lighting, sound, editing and production.
• Day 3 spent at a University Media Arts Campus, induction to faculty and degrees.
Our Outcomes
