AMV panel is 6-8pm on Saturday, directly after the AMV awards presentation. Yes, attending the panel means missing the cosplay, but this isn't cosplay.org dangit! Show up, watch some new stuff, watch some old stuff, and learn m4d l33t editing skillz0rs! You know you want to! All the COOL kids are doing it!

I heard that last year, the AMV panel was a huge disappointment. I heard that the panelists were all drunk and only a few people were trying to actually make an effort to discuss AMVs with the audience. That's a really big turnoff for me so I'm not sure if I'll go.

When aren't we drunk?!

Seriously though, this year we have plans and direction. There is much l33t to be taught!

(giggles) You're digging your own grave here buddy. That's a good question, when aren't you? I'm sure Katsucon would be very disappointed to hear that people who are supposed to be throwing a panel and showing people how to make AMVs are drunk. I don't drink when I'm editing. Maybe you do, but that's your own buisness.

I'll be surprised if anyone shows up.

Not as disappointed as they'll be to learn the panel attendees are all drunk.

You can read the future? Please do tell me, when will I become as 1337 as the Katsucon panelists? I'm dying to know.

Why not place a bottle of vodka there instead? I'm not going to waste my time learning those "leet editing skills" from a bunch of drunken fools. I'll be at the cosplay contest. At least they're not rewarded for being drunk on stage.

I dunno, some of those cosplayers might as well be drunk on stage.

hmm, I think I have the opposite feelings here. I'm curious as to what you expect from panels. I mean, at the panels I've been to, I've heard a lot of cliche advice like "Edit with your heart," and in other cases, lots of technical things that went over my head. I can understand going to learn in regards to tech advice. I might not get that stuff, but I'm sure lots of others do regardless.

Either way from my experiences, I've loved the drunken panels. I feel like the panels where people try and teach you *their* editing techniques, usually aren't fun, and too preachy for me. If we're all just drunk together and talking about general AMV stuff, that works for me. I'd rather be in an environment where we you can sit around and bullshit as equals, as opposed to hearing what is the right way to edit from some person taking their craft too seriously.

You do know that some editors prefer editing while drunk right? Besides, artistic creation tends to be inspired by a different view of the world, which is facilliated by mentally affecting chemical substances. Many famous artists were very well known for having mental imbalances or drug usage patterns. Not that I would ever condone drug use or anything long those lones, but it's just something to consider.

You'll all be so drunk that the amv creators will be on the cosplaying panel and the cosplayers on the amv panel.
