Pictures from Anime Next 2005 Convention Coming Soon. Meanwhile here are the autographs from the Anime Next 2005 Convention from the Full Metal Alchemist Cast. (Note: Due to the security guards at the signing event. I was only allowed to get one autograph on 1 item only by the actors. However Caitlin Glass was nice enough to sign both of my items. Vic and I were talking most of the time after he signed my booklet therefore I couldnt get his autograph in time on the DVD. Travis was talking to my friend Rafael (because Travis's brother is also in the army so yeah they both had a nice 5 minute conversation lol). We also wanted to take pictures with the actors but security stopped us. Everyone else in front of us got to take pictures lol. Like the 10 people in front of us got to. Other than that, all 3 actors are very nice people. They're also great motivational speakers. They inspire you to follow your dreams and make it into a reality. Here's one good example, heh I alwways wanted to be President. Here I am today lol.

Until Next time,

Ron C.
President of Pace Anime and Gamers Association

These were pics taken from the first even, the Anime Music Video panel. Basically everyone who attended got a chance to create their very own anime music video after they attended the AMV Theory panel during the first hour. The session was very informative and I learned a lot from it. Basically to make an anime music video all you need are 4 things: Adobe Premiere, Music, Anime video clips and Creativity. This will be further discussed at our events / meetings in the future. You can visit the AMV Panel's website at http://www.animemusicvideos.org

Following the trip to the dealer's room at the convention, we went to the Full Metal Alchemist Panel. Here we met the Voice Talent behind the scenes of the series. The members of the panel are the following : Vic Mignogna, Caitlin Glass and Travis Willingham. Vic plays Edward Elric, Caitlin plays Winry and Travis plays Colonel Roy Mustang from Full Metal Alchemist. At the panel the members didn't just talk about their successful careers. They also interacted with the audience through a question and answer session. In addition to that they gave us a motivational speech. Basically to make a long story short they told us to follow our dreams and never give up on what we do in life. They're living proof of what you can accomplish if you put time and effort into your hard work.

Once the Full Metal Alchemist session came to a close we went to the signings. There we waited in line to get autographs from the Actors. Some people were lucky enough to take pictures with the actors before security stopped us. Then the others like myself were lucky to get more than one autograph on our items. Security barred anyone from getting mutiple autographs but the actors went ahead and gave the fans mutliple autographs anyway. The cast of Full Metal Alchemist ROCK. I also had the opportunity to talk to Vic and Caitlin during the signing session while my friend PFC. Rafael Lopez spoke with Travis. Hopefully they'll come back to the convention next year.
