This one slipped under the radar. Cascadia Con is a science fiction convention that has - at least this year - a significant anime component. This includes voice actors, the traveling Robotech show, anime viewings, and an AMV contest. I don't know who is running the contest (Geirr?), but a little advertisement would have helped (the deadline passed on Aug 5). It does appear that Geirr is doing some presentations about making AMVs.
Anyway, the con is this weekend so it's probably only good for Pac Northwest locals. It's expensive, too. $125 for all-days, $30-$45 for single days.
