This is a documentation of what I shall be doing for kunicon if you wish to add, remove or change this to make it better please let me know. I wrote this off the top of my head so it might contain errors.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Depending on hardware if it can be modified with different hardware and cleaned. If we really switch hardware.
Mac Mini for Anime Theater rooms
Mac Mini Price = $499 x2
Use Projectors (already from other cons)
Michieru would set them up and have a staff member keep an eye on equipment and report any trouble.
Game Rooms
DDR using the same hardware from Miami.
Game rooms can be put in a bigger room where it's more easy to move around still same old hardware from of Miami. Also latest games if possible.
When arriving on the convention first thing is to setup the theater and game rooms. On my watch I would do it in record time. Should take around a hour for all 3 game rooms. Staff would be in-charge of hardware and proper operation of each station available. If they wish to take a break they would need to contact another staff member to take there position and make sure they know what there doing.
Walkie talkies can be available to report any problems quickly to head of staff and to fix them quickly. While providing a backup for people to provide a transition while the repair of the old machine is being done.
During AMV contests either a DVD would be used to play back everything or instead using another machine (Mac Mini) and have me run it one by one. This should take as long as they need to play it would be a iMovie presentation or done with other software. Upon play There would be the name of the submitter and also the name of the AMV. Then once the AMV plays and ends. We move on to the next providing a detailed yet fun AMV contest. Prices could be changed to fit the average con goers needs. Prices can be a rock guitar from FLCL or other prices. Main price can be a complete computer system. Second price winner can win a FLCL signed rock guitar third prize winners can recieve a big Inuyasha plush doll or the character of there choice. This offers better management within the con for repairing problems and having a stable AMV contest. Also a few people who are not stage frighten to give intros during the AMV contest where manny himself would give a brief speech on how we doing and encourage the crowd to have a great time and to make some noise. Once the crowd does the music would slowly come up and the lights of the room dim. Once that's done a good trance beat or etc from a member for a couple of seconds and begin showing the AMV's. Also the kunicon bag needs to be changed(it's just a no no
)These are my objectives for kunicon atlanta
Fix overall kunicon management in providing a faster response to problems and make communication between the team more reliable.
Improve the AMV contest.
Give a better experience to the guests who come to the convention.
Provide faster alternatives and small quick response teams for different issues and sections regarding a problem with a con goer. Or any other issues.
Be a guest speaker from kunicon during the AMV contest where I be on stage and encouraging the crowd to start clapping and to enjoy themselves. Also keeping the room flowing and exciting.
____________________________________________________________________
Offer gaming tournaments and rated correctly.
Depending on games is what they win.
For DDR first prize winners a metal DDR pad.
Second prize winners can win a playstation with a DDR game of there choice.
Third prize winners can win a playstation DDR game.
Console games no tournament.
Tournament on multiplayer games. Like doom 3 and etc.
prizes I am not sure yet since the games would be played differ on the prizes.
DJ rooms can start at 11PM ending time varies. Music would be what the a-m-v.org forum users decided which would mostly be J-Pop, Metal, Trance, and a few other more Genres. There would be 2 seperate rooms playing 2 genres in each room. One would be Trance and J-Pop the other can be Metal with probably Punk. Still depends on the results I get from a-m-v.org
No fat chics in costumes hired by kunicon (a requirement)
Pool party can be available at certain times and also contests can be put.
Rules must be strict (no pulling wet suit strings from girls guys) (I mean that) Contests can be for swimming from one end of the pool to the other, volleyball can be available and offer more ideas from con goers. Foods and drinks are available also music would be available at the pool. Liqour is not allowed since mostly the people there would be of ages 18 and lower. If you need a drink take it to the room and keep it quite if you brought some girls over.
As for dealer rooms finding people who really know how to deal with this situation and have a understanding on this.
Photography : Can be a few photographers mainly for the cosplay and etc. If something is not set up absolutely nobody is allowed to enter the rooms what so ever.
We must also try to remain on schedule and keep the con flowing from friday until sunday.
Most of the stuff would take place the first and second day the third day everything would still be available until 8PM then we begin to close down.
After that we just pack up, leave back to miami and hope for the best of the fans.
