With AnimeFest only a couple months out, I'm putting the call out (or at least the heads up) for trailer submissions for the visual novel showcase.

Last year, we showed off a ton of trailers for VNs, and the panel went over really well. I'd like to do the same again this year. I'll post a general thread, but anyone who is going to be at the convention will receive top priority. It would be even better if you could attend the panel in person to answer any questions people might have about your VN. If you have a trailer for an upcoming or newly released VN that you want to be shown at the con (all ages only), please email it to me at soymilk.pudding@gmail.com

I wish I could go, but I am committed to another con the weekend prior and at the time I couldn't afford to do both. :( Next year said con and this con will conflict, so we'll have to see on that one, but I really really hope to be able to come one day!

Looks like it'll be a pretty good group! What's on the schedule (officially and unofficially) for VN stuff at the convention?

It's looking like I'm going to be in town several days before the con starts. I'm wondering if we want to plan up some sort of co-dev event before the con proper. Like, everyone gets together in a coffee shop or something, and we hack on games for an hour or two, then go out for dinner or a snack or something.

What do people think?

I'd like to join a pre-con meet, but it's up in the air right now. Depending on the current contract, I'll either be coming from Austin on the Saturday morning (3.5 hour drive), or from 30-minutes north of Dallas, whenever the heck I feel like.

Alright, AnimeFest has posted a list of approved panels. The trailer showcase isn't on it, but I'll try to find a place to show off trailers anyway. Here's the current list of approved panels related to VNs. Not all of these are mine.

Making Visual Novels - Any creators are welcome to come. It's an hour-long panel, but I usually only take about half an hour and then the rest of the time is a Q&A. If you want to participate in the Q&A as someone who provides As to the Qs, let me know.

Ren'py State of the Union - PyTom is running this one! You will probably learn things at it!

Let's Make a Visual Novel! - This one is hilariously bad. It's more entertainment than learning, but come anyway.

Lights, Camera, Romance! - Ostensibly a Backstage Pass panel, but it'll likely devolve into a voice actor panel.

Otome-nia! Dating Games for Girls - An otome games panel. The people who run it are pretty fun.

Sekai Project - More about localization than creation, but these guys'll be there too!
