At the start of May we challenged everybody in the MinnMax community to create a documentary under three minutes long in an event called Doc Lightning. You didn't need to be an expert, filming with your phone was encouraged. One month and 31 submissions later, Ben Hanson, Leo Vader, and Jacob Geller screened everybody's work in a big film festival and had a blast. The wide range of documentaries blew us away, highlighting things like trains, international travel, snakes, parents, houses, and secret artwork from Shigeru Miyamoto. Congratulations to everybody who submitted a documentary, they were incredible.

Thank you all for making an outlet like MinnMax possible, we couldn't be here without you. Any help sharing Doc Lightning 2023 is appreciated! https://youtu.be/Jz41AEMw3sU

Bravo Mr.Hanson and community. This is the kind of weird one-off content that makes me love MinnMax.
