I'm not sure about any Arizona cons but entering contests is fairly easy. All you do is send in a copy of your video with a submission form to whoever is holding the contest. You don't have to go to the con they will contact you if you win.

Thanks for the listPuts things in perspective. Only 3 I'm currently planning on going to are Ohayocon (staffing this year to help out a friend), Anime Central, and AWA. I may try and fit Otakon in there, but who knows.

I'm sorry to say, but ACen has almost always been mid-May (~15-17th-ish) and it's sort of a tradition. I know they don't take everyone into account, but I know that my alma mater (University of Illinois) usually has finals the week before (or that week) and thus most of those kiddos are just getting off school and thus it works nicely for them. *shrug*
...and your ass BETTER be at ACen McFly
I am glad to see JACON is a month earlier and isn't close to ACen since I couldn't go to both b/c of work. Can't miss two weeks in a row.
