Convention Report for Animagic 2006
written
by Master Jedi
Ani-Magic
turned out to be a good, fun convention. There was plenty
of action to go around, just as last year; the Convention
was located at the Lancaster Best Western Antelope Valley
Inn in Lancaster, Ca.
As with
every convention there were some positive and negative
points.
Some of
the positive points included, huge convention room space ,
snacks and drinks, a good size dealer room with over 100
vendors, Artist alley, several video anime rooms, great
educational panels, wonderful guests of Honor, good photo
shoot spots, Masquerade. Pool and hot tub, the convention
itself was a 24 hour con, so there was plenty of time to
see and do everything and be with friends. A fun pirate
Rum-Party was an official event and brought the pirates’
spirit alive and of course the convention was located at a
hotel so cosplayers could easily find their places to
rest.
Some of
the negative points regarding the convention included, Our photo studio and location was not well
advertised, many didn't even know we had one or where it
was. The masquerade was not very well lit, the
closing ceremony was not advertised and we or many of the
staff did not know
when/where it was, the security seemed to be too tight as
far as badge checks.
Overall
the Convention was a good success; the location was great
to host the convention, the staffs for the convention were
both nice and friendly. These points made Ani-Magic 2006 a
good convention to attend.
