Lego Me!

Hi Everyone!

 

I hope we are all getting buzzed about Inspire 2019 in Nashville which is now just over a month away! I know I'm excited to head over to the states to see everyone and everything Alteryx have to offer!

At the conference I'll be presenting a talk on how I built a workflow which converts a portrait image into a lego set; pretty cool right?!

Well, during the session, I will also be giving one individual the chance to win a legoset of their own face!

 

To enter, just follow these steps;

 

1. Take a square photo of your head, use the picture of @PhilipMannering above as an example (make sure you have a plain background, try to reduce shadow and don't wear a jazzy scarf, cough @NicoleJohnson)

 

2. Load your picture to the dropbox that can be found here (please include your name and email address (with which you registered to Inspire with, when you upload!): https://til.bi/LegoMe

Both the above steps can easily be done through mobile, so hopefully this won't take too much effort!

And of course, some competition rules;

 

1. One winner will be chosen via a random generator during the session. The chosen entrant will be contacted the week after Inspire 2019 to arrange delivery (and an opportunity to take/choose another photo). 

2. Your email address will be cross-checked against a list of registered email addresses for Inspire 2019; if you are not registered your entry will b e removed.

3. Bonus points for attending my session!

 

As a runner-up prize, everyone that submits there photograph will be emailed a pdf file containing their 'Lego Self', alongside a sheet which details which products are needed to build the portrait, which can be used to purchase the appropriate parts from the Lego Store themselves.

 

Thanks; I look forward to seeing everyone there!

 

Ben

I'm going to have to put this into practice x3 for each of my kids! Or maybe just create one for a photo of all of them :)

I cannot tell you how excited I am for your session.  We have a Lego obsession at my house, so this will be an awesome new 'set'! :D

Ben, what a brillian idea!  Could I submit a picture of my dog instead of me?  Would much prefer to see a picture of him :-)

@Dynamomo sure you can! But you may find it difficult to get your dog in front of a plain background, but feel free to give it a go!

Hi Ben,

 

I went to your session. That's a great one. I din't able to get a seat since I arrive a little bit late :-)

 

BTW, is there any place I can find your workflow? I want to try it on my cat.
