AniMix

We seriously need Staff for the AniMix convention. As of right now I have two staff members working for AniMix Con 2008. These include myself as director and friend Hightower who is in charge of the Dearlers/Artist Alley. There are lots of positions to be filled and we are looking for responsible individuals.

OPEN POSITIONS:

SPOKESPERSON: Looking for someone with good public relation skills, and a good speaking voice to talk to our sponsors, MC at events, and someone who likes to be in front of the camera to talk to press about the convention. I need to see something like video footage of you being on camera or something that I can hear of you speaking. The spokesperson should also look the part. He/She should dress to impress and should look professional.

GUEST RELATIONS: Looking for someone to be in charge of guest relations. They would be responsible for making sure guests had snacks/food, give the guests a tour of the facility/town, possibly pick up the guests from the airport/train station, and be able to assist the guests concerns and needs. The guest relation person will have help from chosen volunteers as assistants.

SET-UP/TEAR DOWN CREWS: Looking for dedicated people to help make events possible. Crew is required to help set-up and tear down events and help make AniMix run smoothly. These are important positions and I'm looking for serious inquiries only.

All staff receive AniMix t-shirts and badges that will signify your position and entry into all AniMix events.

More positions will be available soon...

I signed up for four hours a day as a Runner, but I'm more than willing to work more hours (full time, even) in any of those areas if you need the help.

-I don't have a video or anything to show for the Spokesperson position, so I'm not sure about applying for that. Unless I could track down a video camera.
-I've lived here for seventeen years, so I'd probably do well with Guest Relations, running errands for and giving tours to guests and such.
-I'd probably do okay in the Set Up/Tear Down section as well. That seems pretty straight-forward.

I can also see if I can recruit others to help out. About how many more volunteers do we need?

Please do more recruiting. Give me a little time... I may put you in charge of guest relations and just recruit more volunteers.

Thanks Kat,

Keita

Aye aye! What should I do if I find more volunteers? Just e-mail them the form? Have them e-mail you? How many do we need? I don't want to under- or over-do it. "Kat got a little recruit-happy and now we have a bajillion volunteers! Hotel rooms for all!"

Just have them e-mail me and I'll give them a form.. We need at least 8 more people.

Thanks,

I've only found two or three people interested in volunteering so far. I'll keep looking.

I understand fully the need for staff help so I'd gladly help out. I thought Mike was helping on Guest Relations? E-mail me, theproz (at) gmail.com. I'm always willing to help out other conventions.

As a seasoned con goer I would be happy to help in anyway possible . I have ran several panels before and would be happy to run a cosplay or jrock/jpop panel if needed to occupy some time or just in order to provide a variety of events to chose from. So just let me know where you really need somebody..( no manual labor please im weak) and ill be there to help.

im happy killeen is finally having a con, though kinda sad that it happening after i moved to san antonio. i'd be glad to help out though since i'll be in town. let me know what i can do.

That sounds very interesting... Please give me some idea of what you will do in the panel. I actually think that panel idea would be easily approved. I'd be happy for you to run that panel.

Thanks a million,

Well what do you like to do? What would you like to be in charge of? Let me know and we can go from there.

Thanks,

Well in a cosplay panel i explain the meaning of cosplay explain how a new cosplayer would go about choosing a character, give examples of different cosplay ideas, give resources for new cosplayers and etc and etc.

In a jrock panel i play jrock videos , licensed of course. Explain what visual kei is , matina and other genres of Jrock and normally have a drawing to give away the masses of jrock posters i accumulated while I was in Japan.

If there is something else you wanted me to do im willing to run a panel about everything , i love public speaking.

I think the Jrock panel is a great idea! I'm seriously going to put that in the program. And since you like public speaking.. I have a side job for you. If i get wrapped up with things from the convention and I don't have time to talk to the press... You can fill the PR representative position that I posted on the top of this topic. Please consider it... It would eliminate one of those positions.

Think it over,

Sweet i could do that. Is there going to be a rave one of the nights of the con

Well, the spokesperson job is yours. Now one job down, one to go.

Dang it! you are the 20th person to ask if there is going to be a rave... I call anything over 20 popular demand so... AniMix Con will have a RAVE! Whoot! If anyone asks whose idea the rave was...say "cause Nantaku said so".

It's Ravie time. Look out for announcements on the website.

Currently looking for a DJ <looks left and right>
