AZKATRAZ
Okay, so I'm back in the new year to concentrate on getting things organized for Azkatraz Art Activites (also known as Triple A! ...oh wait.) Aside from activities, I also really want to do a couple panels/workshops. HELP ME FIGURE STUFF OUT, PLEASE.

Why haven't you been coming to art chat, missy?

[glockgal]

I was pretty much dead over the holidays, it was...lame. But I am SO THERE THIS FRIDAY, I AM. MY TRANSGRESSIONS, BEAT ME FOR IT.

Gaaaaaah, that looks so fun!! But it's in CA! D:

I can help you plan stuff if you want? (Does that help? D:)

[glockgal]

Nawwww are you stuck on that other side of Canada? Dang!

Dude, seriously even if I can have someone to bounce the workshop ideas off of, that'd be great, thank you! I have like, zero teacher skills in me, ahahaha. I prefer one-on-one tutoring. *wiggles eyebrows*

[calembours]

IT ATE MY COMMENT. *grumbles* I'll try again.

I'm from SK... lollllll

LIVE!
I think this is a great idea - I love seeing how other people approach their drawings, and I like seeing little tricks or techniques that I can pick up from watching them. My only suggestion is music to be played during this time, or maybe questions could be asked (if that's not too distracting for the artist).

WORKSHOP
I love workshops! I think that it'd be neat to take a character (like Snape, for example) and use them for the workshop. It might be cool to do just a purely technical workshop where you talk about anatomy or the differences between drawing femmes/males, or how to work compostition, or expressions. But that's not for everyone, and I don't know if you want to lead something like that? It might be cool to lead a workshop where you talk about things like how a charactertization can influence body language, or how a character reacts with scenery/setting/other characters/props, clothing/costume, or how to draw something other than portraiture

Curse you LJ!!! *shakes fist*

LIVE! - I like the idea of questions! In fact, it coule be fun to have the other two artists answer questions or talk about art or something, while one artist is drawing?

WORKSHOP - I'm very much more about characterization/storytelling than I ma about technical stuff, but. I am soooo gonna try and wrangle someone like ani_bester to help out with this. I think she'll be a great asset. XD

PPP-F - YES to having Q&A. Maybe if it's a panel, we can have a moderator asking some set questions to a few (three?) fanartists of varying levels/noteriety in the HP fandom and then open it up for broad discussions.

Oh Round Robins! That's something that'd be fun to organize, although I'll leave that to the side/informal planning. But I love those, they are ALWAYS AWESOME. XD

[leelastarsky]

Sounds utterly AWESOME! *wishes she could be there*

[glockgal]

If only Australia wasn't so far away!!! *tries to lure it closer*

[meredyth_13]

*drive by glompage and tackling*

*prays that life is kind and airline prices don't go through the roof*

*prays they don't close registrations*

:D

[glockgal]

SRSLY. I lucked out and bought my plane ticket early and cheap, it was like. Unbelievable, ahahah.

I HOPE YOU CAN MAKE IT TOO HOMG.

[cathybites]

I WANT TO GO. sigh

but if you need help with planning or setting up or anything, you know I'm her for you. <333

[glockgal]

Man, it won't be the same without you! I'll totally be sitting on a couch or something and then someone'll pass by and I'll turn and say "OMG Cathy, did you see..." But you won't be sitting beside me and then I'll just drink more rum until I can pretend you are. SAD TIMES AHEAD, MY FRIEND.

*HEEE* I would like to bandy ideas, especially about the presentations and the workshop. I'll try and muster together my proposals before the deadline and then hash out the details with you afterwards! *MWAH* Thank you!
