Once again, we're looking for a few good Otaku to help spread the word
about their favourite anime, artists and other hot topics. All it takes
is an hour of your time, sitting in a room sharing your ideas with
others. It can't get any easier than that.(1)
Words from the Wise:
You should expect to be contradicted and to have to defend your point of vue
in more details than "Pokemon R00ls D00ds".
If you are unsure if you have enough material, see if you can talk 10 to 15
minutes on the subject of the panel without repeating yourself too much.
Bringing notes, props, and prepared speeches are all the marks of experienced panelists.
Practice is also a good idea
What's the Reward?
Signing up for 1 or 2 gets you a some privilege and a token of our appreciation.
The more panels you do, the more swag you earn. (We'll figure something for 3)
Sit on 4 panels and get an Anime North Shirt, (Most likely an exclusive)
Sit on 5 panels, and we'll REFUND YOUR MEMBERSHIP Sunday
And whatever nice things I can manage to swing for my people
Ready to Sign Up?
Get the panelist registration form (www.anpanels.com)
Panelist signup will close when all available slots have been filled.
When you check in at the con office you will be given a special panelist
badge and a personal schedule. For every panel you sit on, the schedule must
signed by either your fellow panelists or a concom member. Turn the
completed form back in to the con office Sunday after 12:00 and we will
give you your rewards.
Not Ready To Be a Panelist Yet?
That's okay, you can still help out by downloading either of the forms
and completing the TOPICS I'M MOST INTERESTED IN SEEING PANELS ABOUT
section. Feel Free to add suggestions.
E.mail the completed form to panels -at- animenorth com, and put "panel
suggestions" in the subject line. It's the best way to let us know what
kind of panels you're most interested in attending.
Not sure ? See you at the Teahouse of the Maple Moon and chat with PanelGuru
Or email panels -at- animenorth com and we'll chat and see.
(1) well, adding in a couple of hours to brush up on your topic before the Con is a better idea.
