DeMo is low-key but high-energy. No pixel-perfect pitch decks; bring your storyboards, screenshots, sketches and the like. It can be raw and rough or perfectly polished. Share with the group and see what happens. Maybe you’ll get some good honest feedback. Maybe you’ll meet a kindred spirit that wants to get involved. Heck, you might learn something just from trying to explain it in front of an audience.
Omaha – University of Nebraska at Omaha, Mammel Hall (6708 Pine St.)
