Well all, less than 2 weeks away from Kawaii Kon! There's still a lot to be done, but I wanted to let you all know a few things about the upcoming VAST Video Art Contest:
1. Kawaii Kon VAST Video Art Contest 2009 Main Event - I am very pleased to announce that every editor who entered this year will have at least 1 video shown during the Main Contest Showing on Saturday the 11th of April (please see our convention schedule when it becomes available for exact times) - making all entrants eligible for the Fan Favorite award (see below).
2. VAST Contest Overflow - after talking with the Video Director, I have secured a time-slot for a Contest Overflow session. This is where all other videos entered into this year's contest but not shown at the main event will be played. There is 'just' enough time this year to play all overflow videos, so barring anything unforeseen happening, all videos entered WILL be played! The VAST Contest Overflow will also be on Saturday, later that afternoon (again, please see our schedule for exact times).
3. Fan Favorite Award - this year we will be instituting for the first time, a Fan Favorite award, where you, the Kawaii Kon fans in attendance at the main contest event, will be given the chance to make your vote for best Video Art count! As all submitting editors are represented in this year's main event, every entrant has a chance to win.
If there are any questions or comments on this, please let me know!
