Dear Ideamen, Quick-on-your-feet thinkers, and improv lovers,
After a performance at Natsucon 2011, I am planning to host a game show panel at Anime STL 2012 known popularly as "Whose Line is it Anime?". Similar in spirit and concept to the popular television program, "Whose Line is it Anyway?" this variation gives the same games and zaniness with an otaku twist (as if the world needed any more terrors). Run by yours truly at NatsuCon 2011, the game involves audience members improvising scenes created with suggestions from the audience themselves, as well as my own bass- ackwards ideas (i.e., Drunken InuYasha, world's worst jedi knight, etc.)
A similar panel under the same name was also run at ASTL 2011 by the con chair, Jeremy Johnson, to which I paid attendance and participation. As Mr. Johnson is obviously NOT the con chair of Natsucon, I decided to try my hand at running it, with great success. I also enjoyed myself and thus submitted the same panel idea to the ASTL staff and am still awaiting the final schedule to be released.
For audience suggestions at Nastucon, I passed around slips of paper to prospective audience members to write down scene ideas and lines for several different games. As the con space for ASTL is nearly double than that of Natsucon, I found it prudent to start a thread for audience suggestions. All scenarios are welcomed, but keep in mind that this panel will be for general con guests, so suggestive scenes will be screened accordingly.
Sincerely,
Joseph Nash
