Hey guys, Well EirtaKon is behind us and we are back to our usual showings :) This week we will be showing Beyond the Clouds followed by the first few episodes of the new dubbed Naruto! The week after will be our EGM for some new blood on the cmt. And finally we will be placing our orders
for our anime/manga this week - expect to have a large new selection come January :)
_EGM_
One other upcoming event though is a way overdue EGM. Last year two positions were left vacant - PRO and Film Officer. These are rather.. important.. positions in the society as they are the real face of it :) The PRO designs and puts up the posters while the Film Officer plans out the showings.
Directly from our constition, which can be found here (http://www.redbrick.dcu.ie/~ams/about/constitution.php)
6.4.1 The Film Officer shall be responsible for the fixed and current assets of the society in compliance with the regulations set down by the Societies and Publications Committee.
6.4.2 The Film Officer shall maintain a record of all films and related
material
belonging to the society and will report an inventory list to the committee at the start and end of the academic year.
6.4.3 The Film Officer will be responsible for booking rooms and setting up and monitoring what equipment might be used at events.
The Film Officer will be responsible for choosing the weekly movies and
handling
what license fees need to be paid for the films to be watched.
6.5.1 The Public Relations Officer (along with the Secretary) shall be responsible for the advertising of all functions of the society through all means possible.
6.5.2 The Public Relations Officer (along with the Secretary) shall deal with external correspondence and maintain records of the contribution outside bodies have had for the society and to give notice to all members of these contributions.
One other position is also available - First Year Liason. This person's
sole
role is to help the committee and get as many firsties to attend as possible :)
So if anyone is interested in becoming part of the committee email us your submission at ams@redbrick.dcu.ie by the end of the week. If you have any questions about what the REAL work is like just come along on thursday and ask or email me and I'll describe the fun :)
_EirtaKon 2006_
Well after the very frantic efforts put in by all, thank you!, EirtaKon was a success.. and now already there are calls for a repeat - though hopefully better planed performance ;) - next year. So to get the ball rolling on
this
I wish to have a Pre Con Director elected. This person should have the aim of becoming the chairperson next year as it will make everything run alot smooter. The person will have to decied the positions that the EirtaKon
committee
will need - for instance a Staff Manager, a Finance Offier, Trade Officer, Film Officer, PRO, Treasurer, Fan Dub Officer, Cosplay Officer.. etc etc.. They will then _choose_ who will fill these rolls untill the AGM. The pre committee main objective will be advertising, getting the word out, decieding the theme for the con etc.. Contacting groups to gauge their reaction to attending the convention and what not :) Interested? Again email us at ams@redbrick.dcu.ie though you can run on the day if you want.
The election of the PCD will be directly after the EGM for the committee elections.
_Film Plots_
Beyond the Clouds : In an alternate timeline, Japan was divided after losing World War II: Hokkaido was annexed by "Union" while Honshu and other southern islands were under US sovereignty. A gigantic yet mysterious tower was constructed at Hokkaido and could be seen clearly from Aomori (the northernmost prefecture of Honshu) across Tsugaru Strait. In the summer of 1996, three 9th-graders had made a promise that one day they'll build an aircraft and unravel the tower's mystery, but their project was abandoned after the girl, Sayuri
Sawatari,
began experiencing sleeping sickness and transferred to Tokyo for better treatment. Three years later, Hiroki Fujisawa accidentally found out that Sayuri had been in coma since then, and he asked Takuya Shirakawa to help him finding a way to revive her. What they don't know yet is that Sayuri's unconsciousness is somehow linked with secrets of the tower and the world.
Naruto : Naruto closely follows the life of a boy who is feared and detested by the villagers of the hidden leaf village of Konoha. The distrust of the boy has little to do with the boy himself, but it.s what.s inside him that causes anxiety. Long before Naruto came to be, a Kyuubi (demon fox) with great fury and power waged war taking many lives. The battle ensued for
a
long time until a man known as the Fourth Hokage, Yondaime, the strongest ninja in Konoha, fiercely fought the Kyuubi. The fight was soon won by Yondaime as he sealed the evil demon in a human body. Thus the boy, Naruto, was born. As Naruto grows he decides to become the strongest ninja in Konoha in an effort to show everyone that he is not as they perceive him to be, but is a human being worthy of love and admiration. But the road to becoming Hokage, the title for the strongest ninja in Konoha, is a long and arduous one.
It
is a path filled with betrayal, pain, and loss; but with hard work, Naruto may achieve Hokage.
Now I'm sure there are far too many spelling mistakes in there.. but tekkit ;)
Cheers, John
