Drupal Coder vs Themer: The ultimate DrupalCon trailer?

Submitted by Robert Douglass

Campbell Vertesi and Adam Juran are at the top of their game when it comes to coding and theming Drupal. They're also deeply involved in and shaped by their study of martial arts. That's what makes this DrupalCon trailer so very good: they make an analogy for working with Drupal that pits the coder vs the themer, and it becomes the basis of their whole DrupalCon session. This trailer (which is meant to get butts into seats next week in Amsterdam), is a tribute to B-grade Kung Fu movies, and is true to Drupal's tradition of approaching technology with a good dose of levity and humor. I, for one, really enjoyed working with Campbell and Adam while shooting this, and am looking forward to their session.

What is this for? It's for the "Prenote" session at DrupalCon Amsterdam. Every DrupalCon, Jam and I collaborate to show some aspect of the Drupal experience through humor, drama, song, cheesy costumes, and famous Drupal guest stars. We'd like to include some of these stories in Amsterdam!

Thanks for sharing!

Attention Drupal Super Heroes! Your powers are needed!

I hereby attest to posession of DRUPAL SUPER POWERS which I will use to serve the good of mankind and defeat LORD OVER-ENGINEERING at DrupalCon, Austin. I am fully aware that this obligates me to not only attend the showdown pre-keynote session, which takes place at the inhumanly early hour of 8am on Tuesday, June 3, but also to disguise my true identity and dress as is appropriate for a DRUPAL SUPERHERO to dress.
