FanimeCon 2009 Impressions #3: BayAnime’s “Local Bay Area Anime Fans” Panel

lifepoint1 — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 00:17:28 +0000

Pre-Panel Protocol

I woke up on the morning of Saturday, May 23^rd, 2009 with my head stuck in a cloud. It took me a short while to realize that I’d spent the night with BAAU members at the Crown Plaza Hotel across the street from the Fanime convention center. Although I had barely gotten any sleep the night before thanks to the 24-hour party people across the hall, I was focused… I knew that if there was one thing I absolutely had to do that day, it was to check in on time for BayAnime’s “Local Bay Area Anime Fans” panel!

AOD is an annual fan-run not-for-profit event celebrating animation in all its forms. Drawing a smaller crowd of mostly younger locally based anime fans, the club-like atmosphere facilitates close interaction between con-goers and provides an especially welcome venue for local artists and cosplayers to share their creations. In this article, BayAnime staff member Steven Lim weighs in on his AOD convention experience!
