Can you modify the D. Gray-man shoot to note that, pending weather, once we meet the group may move to the courtyard of the First Presbyterian Church on 12th and Morrison? And there is a 11:00 am meet-up in the lobby for a pre-photoshoot luncheon?

Thank you!

I'll add in the bit about an alternate location due to weather changes, but a "pre-photoshoot meet-up" doesn't exactly belong on the list of photo shoots, so I'm going to have to leave that out. I don't mean to be rude, I'm sorry if it sounds that way!

So... Do you have to sign up for a photoshoot, or can you just show up? I hope someone hasn't asked this already, and I just skimmed over it. I tried to be thorough. XD

haha well this isn't anything official, so people just decided on a photo shoot time and place amongst themselves in a thread for whatever series they're cosplaying, and then they come here and tell me so I can post it for everyone to see, in case other people are interested in going as well.
You don't have to sign up to be a part of anything, you just show up :)

You have to come!  At least stop by to say hi!  You were there a few minutes last year during the shoot.  Or more...when we were trying to find a place to do the shoot XD

I'm posting on behalf of the Legend of Zelda photo shoot.  Here's the info:

Legend of Zelda - Pioneer Square, 12 noon on Sunday. Meet at hotel 10 minutes before noon, on 2nd floor balcony above lobby. We'll walk there together. If it rains, Info Booth will be informed of alternate location.


Also, since nobody else has, I'd like to schedule a Super Smash Bros./General Nintendo photo shoot.  Info as follows:

Super Smash Bros. / General Nintendo - Pioneer Square, 1pm on Sunday (right after Zelda photo shoot).  If it rains, Info Booth will be informed of alternate location.

Thank you for this thread. It is helping me help one of my panelists, who's doing a Yuffie cosplay.

Does anyone know of a FFVII shoot?
Is the FF shoot that does not have a number following it, for folks from any of the editions?

Thank you.

PS: I would've gone to the Potter & Who ones, but can't, due to various con-related responsibilities during them. Have fun, all! & Post pix!

Anyone can join in these photo shoots. This is a thread to announce when a particular anime/manga/game/ect theme shoot will take place so you can be there.
The more that join in the more fun the shoot will be so feel free to find one and participate!

Cheers,

Okay, tweaking the D. Gray-man photoshoot again. Would you change it to:

Saturday
D. Gray-man- Meet at Pioneer Square then move to the First Presbyterian Church on 12th and Morrison if not raining, 1:00 PM (meeting in the hotel lobby at 12:00 PM for a pre-photoshoot luncheon)


Sorry for all the changes, and thank you!

Nikkiolie did that on her own last year, and I must admit, it was a great idea! I'm not sure how I would go about getting it up there, but I could make copies of the schedule as well as put one of them in a picture frame or something like they had.

*raises hand* I'll take that question, though I don't work for info booth...

Some conventions actually print the photo shoot schedule and include it in the program, but Kumori Con has been hesitant to do so.  The reason why is because photo shoots are an attendee-run event, and the con doesn't want it to look like it is endorsing them as official events, to prevent headaches for staff.

However, that's not to say it could never happen.  If you'd like the photo shoot schedule to be included in the con book, mention it at Rant and Rave, or post a suggestion in the feedback forum.  There's no guarantee that anything will change, but at the very least, you'll most likely get a good answer explaining why things are the way they are. (Probably better than my brief explanation here)

At Sakuracon we've found that posting the photoshoot schedule on a whiteboard at info booth works pretty good.
I don't know when Kumori's booklets go to print but if it's anything like SC, all the cosplay groups would have to have their schedule down about 1-2 months before con, so about July and I notice groups are still moving their times/locations around.
With the whiteboard at info booth, we can check the web forum at con and update it live.

oh that's okay! I'm not really worried about it being in the program or anything, I know it's too late for that and some of the dates/times aren't even finalized yet. And yes, since this is completely attendee-run I can see why it's best to keep it separated from staff.
I just wanted to be sure it would be alright to have some print-outs of the schedule at the info booth, as well as maybe one in a frame for people to see if they are just walking by and don't want a copy.

I'm really not sure what the lowdown is about the whiteboard idea, but it does sound like a great idea and I hope Kumori Con is doing it.  Photo shoot schedules have been printed in the past (if not at Kumori Con then at Sakura).  The upside is that more people see it if it's in print.... the downside is that it's nigh impossible to make changes/corrections.  Hence the whiteboard idea.

And yeah, now that the con schedule is up on the main site, I'm sure it's long since gone to print. I was just talking about next year. :)

I just wanted to be sure it would be alright to have some print-outs of the schedule at the info booth, as well as maybe one in a frame for people to see if they are just walking by and don't want a copy.

I can't give a green light for that, personally, because I'm just a grunt.  I suggest you email somebody involved with Info Booth or Programming or somesuch.  Can you check the contact info on the main site and choose someone to email?  If you need help figuring out who to email then I'd be happy to help you decide.  Remember that the higher-ups are busier so you don't necessarily want to contact a full-fledged director.  You might want to Cc them, though.  That's just my first instinct.

At Sakuracon we've found that posting the photoshoot schedule on a whiteboard at info booth works pretty good.
I don't know when Kumori's booklets go to print but if it's anything like SC, all the cosplay groups would have to have their schedule down about 1-2 months before con, so about July and I notice groups are still moving their times/locations around.
With the whiteboard at info booth, we can check the web forum at con and update it live.

I'm really not sure what the lowdown is about the whiteboard idea, but it does sound like a great idea and I hope Kumori Con is doing it.  Photo shoot schedules have been printed in the past (if not at Kumori Con then at Sakura).  The upside is that more people see it if it's in print.... the downside is that it's nigh impossible to make changes/corrections.  Hence the whiteboard idea.

I work in SC Publicity and yeah the idea of printing the cosplay photo shoots was tossed around but it was impossible to do because of all the last minute changes, thus the whiteboard idea.
It's large, easy to read and can be changed instantly by having a live link to the web (which we do at SC)
We post alot of notices and schedule changes on these boards throughout the day at info booth and it works really well.
To be truly happy, volunteer your talents, treat others with compassion and watch as much anime as possible...Mina san, Kampai!!!

Hey guys....

So... I just wanted to Head's up ya'll...

You may need to re-think some of the locations for PhotoShoots....

I recently checked (Jaki thought it might be smart) the events going on at the
courthouse square... and as it happens the whole weekend is booked with events
on the square.

We will be trying to book Director Park for the use of attendees and normals for photos of
cos-players and to hang out and enjoy the outside.... but I figured I'd better warn
you before it got to close and people didn't see the changes you may have to make.

Also remember that Pioneer Courthouse Square doesn't allow tripods, while Director
Park will totally allow'em once we have secured the rental rights to it (not quite
done with the paper work just yet)

Last year Nikki contacted me about putting them in the pocket guide.  But, since they are not official events, they don't really belong in it (plus, they are usually changing up until con, and we need to print the schedule much earlier than that.)  That is why we compromised - Nikki had the schedule finalized by a certain date, and I had the schedule available at Info Desk.

I have not been contacted about it this year... if the organizer wants to talk about a similar setup, email programming@kumoricon.org and we can chat  ;)

It is very doubtful that photoshoots will ever be part of the pocket schedule.. the con does not control them, they are unofficial meetups (and no offense, but I have enough of a headache just dealing with panels :D). Having the schedule available at photobooth is the best we can offer.

And Ally was correct... you are going to need to take another look at some of your meetup places.  Pioneer Square is not going to be a viable option, what with the events going on there.  And guys, we don't mean to sound mean or anything, but photoshoots in the Main Lobby of the hotel and on Plaza level will not be allowed.  The hotel is requiring that the lobby be kept as clear as possible, and there is just too much going on up on the Plaza level.  And, before you ask.. the Ballroom lobby will be off limits as well.  Your best bet is going to be Director's Park, which is why we are looking at securing rights to the place.

would people still be able to meet outside of the square/around that area so we could decide on where to move to?

Do you mean Pioneer Square?  It's a public place, so the only thing stopping you would be how crowded the area is, or if they have any areas cordoned off (after all, they are renting the place.)
