If your uncertain about being able to fill the position or think you dont know enough about the layout no worries, its better to have someone then no one and AMS will be running every Thursday so just come along to any of our nights and we will discuss whats happening and show you what the place looks like.
In terms of the EirtaKon committee it is made up of the following
Director - Myself, sorry for not putting this to the vote :) Co-Director/Staff Manager - Ross 'Cult' Duggan Treasurer - AMS cmt member, this is due to the fact that AMS/DCU is funding the event. PRO - one of the Publicity group Anime Manager - one of the Anime group Events Manager - one of the Ents group
Anne made aload of cool points about the jobs also.
We need Ents group quickly for competitions (i.e. fan-art, fan-fic. Advertisments should be made soon as well, setting dead lines and all that stuff..)
Con book editor will have to include these points - not to forget Con rules, maps and signs! - overview about events, happenings on the stage, workshops,... - for all the animes and videorooms a clear table in the middle of the conbook is most handy (listing times, rooms, titles, eps.) - if competitions, quiz or else is going on, terms and coditions, dead lines, who is in charge,... - opening hours for con, canteen, dealer's room and so on - faq
Also "Hang a big schedule where every helper can be listed for when, where and what needed in the staff room (not to forget helpers who kept be free for jump in here and there). Have a couple of reliable other "main helpers", who can be asked and consulted by any other, specially new to the subject helpers."
Definitly being done :) Everyone will be shown the staff room and there will be this list plus list of events timetable on whiteboard, also all the packs for the showings - copies of the movies/episodes and the rating which will be hung somewhere - will be placed in here. When a show is set that your over viewing you head in, grab the pack and set up the room :)
And finally some other cool news!
Arts Magic Dvd is another sponsor for us and will be giving us dvds to give away as prizes and possibly some extra cool gear for the goodie bags :)
Anime Crash is also sponsoring us and are allowing us to screen their anime PLUS will be giving us never before seen stuff! Finally some previews :) They also offer a large selection of Live-Action stuff which could make up some of our stuff. They are also looking to dig out stuff for door prizes and goodie bags :D
Anyone have any contacts in companies that could help us? Hoping to also poke Game and such companies to see if we can get some anime ps2 games or whatever to give away etc.. Also I've been pimping EirtaKon in as many forums as I could see them being usefull - if you see somewhere good that has not been done before waffle and spread the news :)
