That looks pretty good. What do you get them cast in ultimately?

I honestly have no idea -- I've always just left it up to the staffer who makes them and not asked questions, but I think she mentioned some kind of resin??

Overflow/Showcase info

Post by Scintilla » Sat Jun 06, 2015 6:43 pm

Okay, here is what everyone needs to know about the non-finalist screening (on the PDF schedule as "AMV Showcase"):

1) Instead of having separate Friday and Saturday blocks like in previous years, the overflow this year will be one big block on Sunday, on the DoubleTree closed circuit (channel 39) and in the closed circuit simulcast video room.

2) We got a LOT of videos this year. To fit them all, our overflow block is 4.5 hours long, running from approximately 9:45 to 2:15 on Sunday.

3) Every video will be shown once, in alphabetical order by video title (and yes, there are two different videos both called "Evolution"). Here is the schedule, as best I can derive it (spoilered because it's 80 videos long!).
IMPORTANT: Because of the nature of the closed circuit, the playlist must be set in advance, and it runs continuously without intervention; therefore these times are only approximations. I suggest arriving a few minutes early for any given video if you want to make sure to catch it! The staff will NOT be able to repeat any video.

Info for everything else

Post by Scintilla » Sun Jun 07, 2015 5:31 pm

And here is the rest of the vital information for all of our other events:

FRIDAY
Contest screening: 8:00 - 10:00 P.M. in Main Events B (double ballroom in the DoubleTree, seats ~500, same as past few years)

SATURDAY
Contest screening: 10:00 A.M. - 12:00 P.M. in Main Events B (same)
Ballots must be turned in by 3:00 P.M. at the Info Desk (if you did not submit them on your way out of the ballroom)
Winners will be announced and shown at the Masquerade halftime -- NOT before the skits begin as in past years! I have been informed that we have a strict 30-minute time limit on the winners, so depending on what wins, I may not be able to show the Coordinator's Choice.

SUNDAY
AMV Sing-along!: 2:00 - 3:00 P.M. in Panel 3 (Bridgewater room in the DoubleTree, seats ~100). Yes, this is happening. Let's make it loud.

Winners!

Post by Scintilla » Sat Jun 13, 2015 10:37 pm

Another update regarding the AMV overflow block: it will not in fact be shown on the DoubleTree's closed circuit, because our staff only found out on Thursday that the hotel was not going to let us use it this year. However, they will still be shown in the video room that was to be simulcasting the CC feed; I believe it is Video 4.

And now, here is the quick list of this year's winners (full list of finalists and winners goes up after the con):

Coordinator's Choice -- "Captain DandEo" by "LC"_Lapen
Best Romance/Sentimental -- "Say When" by Unlucky Artist
Best Dramatic/Uplifting -- "Awake to the Sky" by Rider4Z (that's two years in a row!)
Best Character Profile -- "Pain into Power" by Drabaz
Best Action -- "Journey of Life" by Matthew Tailby
Best Fun/Upbeat -- "The Fangirl Chronicle" by Celia Phantomhive
Best Comedy -- "Chi & the Not So Company" by MycathatesyouAMV (that's two years in a row, albeit different categories)

Even though we moved the winners show back to the Masquerade halftime, the room stayed full -- 1100 attendees all watching the winners... and going crazy over every one! My cockles are so warmed you have no idea.
