As much as we loved trekking to Castle Lecture Hall for our classes, it was really nice to get outside and change environments for the day! Well, not really outside, we were still in a building. On our computers. I mean, it is a STEM camp. Anyways, thanks to a few sudden changes in weather, our classes were moved to the Student Union Center. After the flurry of bags and future entrepreneurs settled into the couches and tables, a collective hum of productive energy seemed to wash over the group.
It truly is an incredible environment when you have so many talented people working toward a single goal. One of the most critical pieces of advice you’re given at Nalukai is one that echoes the temper tantrums of Steve Jobs in his prime: “Real artists ship.” We were coming down to the final forty-eight hours before our drop-dead date, and the room was electric.
Our designers were poring over a the final digitized elements of the site templates, the programmers were neck-deep in HTML and CSS files, and the rest of the group worked on creating and formatting the visual and text content to be featured on the site. Organization became critical as representatives for each group (designers, programmers, photographers, and editors) continually relayed information on the progress of the digital products we’ve been creating.
The pressure only continued to build as we realized some of our content had been overlapping across different pages. The team of editors worked for around three hours to ensure that all the content was unique and compelling. Overall, things are looking good. Make no doubt, the pressure is on! But we’ll figure everything out. Trust us. We’re the future.
