A Batch of Everfree Announcements!

The Everfree staff has sent us a bushel of announcements! Rather than stick them in a roundup, I have placed them after the break for your reading pleasure. So check that break. It's sponsored by something other than Brony Cola this time.

Seriously, help me think of another product while you read this stuff.

Upcoming Public meeting For Everfree NorthWest

Everfree Northwest is pleased to announce our next public planning meeting for the convention March 24th, 2012 at 1 PM in Seattle, WA. We'll be looking for suggestions and feedback for the convention and the schedule, as well as hoping to meet and greet those who want to directly get involved in making this weekend a reality. While we always have a good time together, keep in mind this meeting is more on the convention planning and business side of things, rather than a purely social meetup.

We'll be meeting at the Jigsaw Renaissance ( http://www.jigsawrenaissance.org/), who has generously donated their space and have pledged their support for Everfree and Bronies in general. We'll be meeting from 1PM-6PM at the address below:

Jigsaw Renaissance
INSCAPE bldg, Rm 140
815 Seattle Blvd S.
Seattle, WA 98134

(206)659-5260

The Jigsaw Renaissance is located in the International District near Uwajimaya. Free parking is limited, so please show up early! However, they are located only a block from a major Transit Center. We are encouraging everypony who can to bring some sort of snack item for a potluck-style meal. This includes cupcakes, muffins, chips, dip, pretzels, soda, salad, cheese & crackers etc. Whatever you'd like to bring, we'd be happy to have.

Please RSVP via the meetup page ( http://www.meetup.com/Bronies-SeaTac/events/55687982/ ), & we hope to see you all there with your thinking caps on!



The Everfree NorthWest PMV Contest!

If there's something we've noticed, it's that PMVs rarely get big, awesome events. There's compilations sure, but by and large, it's a big part of the fandom that doesn't get as much credit as it deserves, considering the work that often gets put in.

To clear that up, Everfree NorthWest is announcing a contest for all of the hard working PMV makers out there.

The contest itself is fairly basic: Make a new PMV (don't recycle an old one, please!) and submit it to us. After we round up all the submissions, our judges with take a look and bring it down to a select few that will be screened at a special panel during the convention. The audience will vote for their favorites, and the winner(s) will get prizes!

Not much more to say, really. We don't want to impose many limits on creativity. Check out the full rules below!


Official Rules:
1) The work must be created by the submitter (or submitters, in the case of collaborators), must be original work, and should be a new work (We're relying on the honor system here, folks).

2) The Creator(s), upon submission, are giving the convention Everfree NorthWeat permission to use the work for the purposes of the contest, including but not limited to: public viewing and web-posting.

3) All entries must be submitted by 11:59 PM, Pacific Standard Time (PST) July 14th, 2012. Any submissions after this date are invalid and ineligible to take part in this contest.

4) Winners will be determined and announced during the convention (August 17th - 19th, 2012). Public announcement will follow.

5) Submissions are to be emailed to contest@everfreenw.com , in appropriate video format, with PMV, your name, and the name of the PMV in the email Subject Line. In addition, for the sake of our judges, a link should be provided to an internet hosted version of the PMV (ie. Youtube).

6) The guideline for length of the PMV is around 4 to 6 minutes. This is not a hard rule, so we do encourage longer submissions, if you wish.

7)As a family friendly convention, we will not be accepting any submissions using elements that would be above a PG-13 rating.
