VoiceSign entered this contest 7/15/20. This is our 1-minute entry:
We made a short video asking for public support – views and likes!
We posted videos on our Instagram Story every day!
We showed that the gloves could help nonverbal children learn how to read.
We showed the gloves could be programmed to speak a different language.
We showed Alexis using them right away when she received her first prototype.
Sian showed the variety of how the gloves could be used by people.
And then this happened!
Then this: NEWS ARTICLE
Then, forty-eight hours later, the voting round suddenly ended. We were not privy to the number of votes each contestant received. However, this is the result of our request for votes video: We had 183,835 views and 5,426 likes. Words cannot express our gratitude to everyone who took the time to support us. Now, we wait until next week when we find out which five contestants will move into the final round. Fingers crossed! In the end, we did not win Kevin Hart’s MarsShot contest; however, we will never give up on our dream to give people who are nonverbal a voice with these gloves. Stay tuned 🙂
