AWA:Questions!
1. Is it worth flying from Alabama to go to the con? Plane money not a prob, but that hotel was pricey!
2. Is there a seperate contest/(is it allowed) that allows non anime footage to be eneterd? i.e. cartoon footage
3. What is the usual age range? I just got back from Chibi Con (which sucked IMO) and I was the only "young adult" there. (20)
4. How is the showing of the amv's done? Like do they have a huge movie projector or huge HDtv screens? (either way would kick A$$).
5. Does the audience get to choose at all an overall video?
Would rather have audience vote instead of judges 8)
THX 4 NFO!

So...no answers to his questions ? I've never been to AWA, but I do know a few things.
2. No contest is limited to anime footage; i.e. use whatever. The dance contest may have content (theme) restrictions.
5. There are four main contests; none have audience voting. However, attendees can nominate videos/persons/animals/etc. for awards of their own creation. There has also been talk of some other contests or exhibitions other than the main ones. If you want the details:

1. That one depends on your tastes. The hotel itself though is verrry nice, I promise you.keyboardsamurai wrote:1. Is it worth flying from Alabama to go to the con? Plane money not a prob, but that hotel was pricey!

2. MCWagner is the one to ask, but the AMV track is often referred to more as a video art track, and is not exclusive to anime footage. Cartoon footage is allowed, I believe.
3. Ummm... you'll blend in ok age wise. Seen all ages show up at this con. ^_^
4. Projector. 24 hour room dedicated to this one event of the con.
5. There are various contests for AWA's AMV judging. Look here for the most comprehensive info: http://www.awa-con.com/vat.htm (If you get an error message of some kind, hit refresh and it should come up.)[/url]

Well Im sure on #2 since my Smash Bitches video won best fight last year. So most definitly you can use game footgage unless they all of a sudden change their minds.

Yea it does. The episodes on adult swim are just re-runs. Fox is only planning on making 2 more episodes (I think 2). Then that's it. Maybe Cn will be able to pick up a contract, but I seriously doubt FOX will allow it. More nfo at www.gotfuturama.com
