Yup. Attempting to finish a video on time....maybe. :P

Yeah... Sars.. SURE. While we're at it, let's start worring about anthrax again, lord knows we haven't heard that word in a while!

Lol.

Anyone else? When are you coming back, Moonlight Soldier? We are starting to miss your counter-EC antics...

you should all come. i just hope there aren't too many ppl worrying about sars or the west nile. it really isn't that big of a deal for those of us that live here (in toronto). you hear a lot about them because it's 'news', if you understand what i'm talking about. something to do with the 'no news is good news' thing and that ppl who aren't here are being paranoid. anyways, i'll stop mumbling. cnanime will be fun. ^_^

If you can have like 500,000 people in for SARSSTOCK, you can handle <however many people are coming> at CNAE.

So yea. Go dere. You might even see me :wink: (I'm the guy with the shades)

Attendance.

Post by Anamorphic Productions » Sun Aug 03, 2003 12:26 am

Considering AN drew about 5000 people and change, You could assume less people for a corporate COn like CN- BUT considering the Sci-Fi and Comic Book participants, I figure we'll peobaly have about 9 000-10 000 people, unless I'm completely off my rocker.

Which is quite possible, since I just spend a week fighting Adobe to finsih my VID for the con in time- BARELY, I might add.
Adobe hates me.

No.... why? I've been going to CN for some time... and there is alot more people there then at AN.

CN through the years has grown:
1995:1,354
1996:3,196
1997:5,333
1998:7,128
1999:10,594
2000:12,763

in 2000 the breakdown was like this:
Comic Expo- 6062
Anime Expo- 2762
Sci Fi Expo- 3939

Now that Anime is a bigger part of the expo I believe attendence will continue to go up. Plus everytime a new part of the convention is introduced... IE the move to the North Building in 1999, attendence jumps greatly. This year the masq is being held in the John Bassett Theatre, (http://www.mtccc.com/floor/jbt_building.asp), which will attract more people this weekend... plus with travel rates and deals being low... I expect this to be a booming year for CN.

Hehe... can't wait to go. This is more than worth taking a day off work.

But, with the attendance high, I better do the right thing and get there early (unless you preorder tickets - lines are massive). But, I kinda like getting there early. You get to chat to some interesting people for a change. Last year, got there just after 11am on friday and managed to be 29th in line. Will go there on the same bus this time, see if the front of the line is different... :wink:

*Points up* Like I said, you *could* assume a lesser attandance, *if* if was JUST Anime Fans. Even rounding up- that's 3 000 people. AN tops it. It's the rest of the con that bumps the numbers much higher.

I'm estatic they got the theatre for the Masquarade. I just finished Pre-recording my group's preformance today. Hurrah for home microphones!
