It is a new year, and I have not talked about what is going on within the organization for a while now. We always try to be innovative and build ourself into our community. The “Full Metal Alchemist” movie showing at the Hollywood Theater in Dormont went over very well.
So, here is what we are working on at the moment.
Hollywood Theater:
- Showing the Hetalia movie at the end of February.
Tekkoshocon:
- Wrapping up our guest line up. Yes, there are more guests to be announced.
- Deciding on the last Industry VA guest to bring in.
- Getting rights for videos to show at the show
- Advertising the show!
Sangawa Project:
- We have dates announced! (13-15 July 2012)
- We have space! (Best Western Green Tree)
- We are in negotiations with our guest of honor.
- Registration is up.
- Dealer’s packets will be ready to go in the next week or two.
KuroKiiro Festival:
- Planning is about to begin. Right now, we are hunting a new venue.
Kennywood Day:
- Tekkoshocon Kennywood Day is booked and we will begin selling tickets for both the park and buffet in the next 2 weeks!
New Events:
- Geek Flea Market – The idea is to provide the Geek/Otaku a place to sell the stuff they no longer want/need to Geeks/Otaku who want it.
Tekkoshocast:
- Soon to be out of hiatus, returning with Jim, Jason, Jeanie, and Dan “the French.” The first episode back will be the return of the “Fandom 411 with John Prager and Vocoloids.”
I wonder if people actually look at this blog?
The flea market’s something I saw come up in the forums, so I’m curious about whether that’s a standalone event or if that’ll be attached to one of the existing shows.
The original idea came from one Ben Davis, the previous treasurer. It is supposed to be a stand alone event. I know Jeanie and I have started asking some of our community artists on ideas of a good venue and price point to make it affordable and reasonable to our community.
