Panel Requests 2018

[revolutionaryjo]

Panel requests for 2018 are now open! Click here!

We're accepting submissions up through Saturday September 6, 2018 @ 11:59pm CDT.

Never run a panel before? No problem! The stakes are low and the Podfication crowd is super chill. If you've got a topic you want to talk about with people for an hour, you can run a panel! Interested in running a demo, game, or event instead? No problem! Submit your idea through the same form and tell us all about it.

A few things to be aware of:

• You can submit more than one idea!


• If we run out of space and you've submitted more than one idea, we may have to choose between them. So if there's one topic you favor over others let us know!


• Have an idea but don't want to run it alone? Drop a comment on this thread asking for co-panelists! Or let us know and we can put the call out on social media for you.


• Would you like to help run a panel but don't have a good topic of your own? Check the comments!

Some more relevant info:

• We'll have a screen, projector, and speakers for the panel room, but you'll have to provide your own laptop or other device to connect up to it. The projector has a VGA input. If your device exports through HDMI, we've got an adapter for that you can borrow. If all you need is audio, as long as your device has a standard audio jack you're good.

Any questions, just let us know!

Ideas in search of comods

[klb]

I have 4 panel ideas and I'd be happy to comod up to three of them. I'm also happy to let someone else take over one or more of them entirely, if you are interested in taking an idea and running with it!

Here they are:

-How to stay involved in podfic fandom when real life tries to eat you (i.e. when life gets super busy and it becomes really hard to actually make podfic). Ideas for how to fit podfic in in short bursts, or how to be involved other than making your own podfic, etc.

-Double-panel where the first hour is coming up with different games and activities podficcers can do at in-person meetups and the second hour is trying out some of those games/activities. (I'm SUPER EXCITED about this one)

-Design the ideal fandom for podfic—what are the plusses and minuses of different fandoms we've podficced in, what makes a fandom good for podficcing, and what would our dream fandom for podfic look like?

-Multivoice podfics—Different ways to split a text into multiple voices, in-person versus long distance, and how to make multivoice podfics successful

Update: I now have a comod for multivoice podfics and for the double panel! Still looking for up to 1 more for comodding.

Updated update: I now have a comod for the ideal fandom for podfic panel as well! Which means the podficcing when life eats you panel is up for grabs if anybody wants it.
