Anime North 2010 - Touhou Panel!
« on: April 14, 2010, 12:13:24 AM »
I tried last year to get a panel going, with no luck, but let's aim to get it done this year!  I've got 3 people on board already, so 1 or 2 more should seal the deal.  If you're interested, sign up at anpanels.com, and posting on the AN board doesn't hurt either.

If I decided to go, I probably would. However, I probably won't go :P

Oh man. You tempt me. I plan to go but have no schedule in mind, so this might not be a bad idea for me to get involved with.

What do you need?
There was something here once. Wonder what...

Not much, just people who can talk Touhou.  As a panelist, you don't need to do much, mainly keep conversation going.  I like panels to be free-flowing, so I don't really plan a strict agenda (usually a rough one that covers the topics I want to touch on).

For this panel, what I'm leaning towards as topics are: the games, the Gensokyo world (and characters), influence of Touhou, doujin work (spinoff games, manga, music). 

You do need to sign up at anpanels.com, and it does help (I think) to post on the AN board.

Having an audience would be great too (since I think one of the criteria that a panel is judged on for inclusion in subsequent cons is audience size).

Hmm... I think I can do that. I just hope I'll manage myself appropriately for the situation. And be remotely well-rested.

I guess I should look into that then :<

I guess we need to set up some sort of slide-show with all this and all though.

I guess I'll look it up myself as well.

If we want to do a slideshow or any other type of AV stuff (videos or music), let me know sooner rather than later.  Not all the panel rooms have AV equipment, so we'd have to let the organizers know ahead of time.

Tbh I'd rather do a slideshow to show some samples of what Touhou is, the games (especially gameplay videos), videos and popular memes that spawned from it, a lot of things to explain. I, myself, am a visual learner and all that, so these things would help me understand than just mere words.

I'll have to check my schedule and with the guys i'm going with but i think i can join you guys for this, if you'll have me ofc~ And i agree, a slideshow and some lunatic gameplay videos would be great.


Oh and am i required to dress up as a Touhou for this? cause i already made other costumes and it's a bit too late to change now.

I'm not gonna cosplay at all. At most I'm gonna bring that shitty Flan shirt I made in Media Arts last year to AN again.

Yeah, c(r)os(s)play is not mandatory. Might be a detriment in some instances.

I'll probably bring Chen, though I'm not sure I'll wear it.

... though, it sounds like plans aren't 100% certain of whether a few of my friends are interested in going, so I'll have to see about whether I'm going, first...

Crossplay is only a detriment if you take yourself seriously. 3/4ths of the AB panel crew was crossplaying but we had spent the entire weekend not taking ourselves seriously so no one really cared.

Just as an FYI, the first set of panels has been released, with no sign of Touhou anywhere.

Make sure to sign up on anpanels.com if you want to participate, and let's try and get some chatter on the AN board to show we're serious.

Still no idea whether Touhou will happen or not, but was told by Fingers (who organizes all the panels), that any A/V equipment will only be provided on a needed basis.

That said, if we want any type of A/V stuff, please forward me what you had in mind, and I can see how receptive he is to what is suggested.

After seeing that list of panels, I now no longer have *any* regrets I'm not going to AN.  Good luck guys, feel free to come to MTL for Otakuthon.

I keep getting more reasons to try and move to the Hamilton/Toronto area.

But not for a while yet.

I don't think I'm going to AN this year. Usual accomplices are uncertain and it's getting a little close to the due date by now. Sorry guys. :(
