From heidi at heiditandy.yahoo.invalid Sun Feb 15 14:40:35 2009 From: heidi at heiditandy.yahoo.invalid (Heidi Tandy) Date: Sun, 15 Feb 2009 09:40:35 -0500 Subject: AZKATRAZ: HBP IMAX Tickets are sold out! Message-ID: <5913e6f80902150640q34a9445m47c590da0bacf500@...> Late this week, we sold the last of the tickets to HBPIMAXSF, set to take place at a minute after midnight on July 17. However, if anyone cancels their registration, additional tickets may become available. We are putting together a wait list, and people will be able to sign up for that later this month, but we can't guarantee that any seats will come available that way. The theater has not yet decided on their specific plans for a midnight showing in a standard theater, but if they do, tickets will be available directly from the theater, via our FANDANGO link, probably in June. They do have a 500-seat theater where they think they will be showing the film. Of course, anyone with a single-day or full registration for AZKATRAZ will be able to go to the LeakyMug podcast after the film at the Parc55 Hotel, even if they didn't go to the IMAX showing. Tickets are still available for Friday night's WROCK AROUND THE ROCKcruise around San Francisco Bay, Monday's Claymation Workshop , hosted by Ryan, the creator of the four-hour DH claymation fanfilm, video studio rental times , the MPA programming tracks at ZEUM, the bus trip to Comic-Con and many more add-on activities.

Our registrar, Sandy, is putting together a waiting list based on when people email her their requests; please email her at sandy.goodson58 @ yahoo.com(without the spaces).

As of March 1, through May 31, the price goes up to $165. So get your tickets now, and save the $20 to spend on something fun in San Francisco. We have decided to delay the increase in the cost of tickets to Wrock Around the Rock ; tickets will still cost $90 for the soda bar and $115 for the full bar until midnight Pacific time on March 15, 2009, then rise to $100 for the soda bar and $125 for the full bar. We are thrilled to annouce that the Creativity Is Magic Claymation Workshopsat ZEUM on Monday, July 20 will be hosted by none other than Ryan, creator of the claymation fanfilm version of Deathly Hallows. Groups of 4-5 will each design their own clay characters and then produce a short animated film using multimedia tools. Groups will be set up ahead of time and can use the HPEF Forums in late June and July to work together and develop a story concept; on Monday, July 20, each group will spend nearly two hours sculpting clay characters and filming a stop motion animation movie. And each participant will leave Azkatraz with a clay figure or two, and a claymation movie on DVD or flash drive. We're going to have two sessions of 30 people each - one for registrants 16 years and up, from 9 til 11 in the morning, and one from 1:30 until 3:30 in the afternoon for kids ages 8 to 16. You can sign up when you register, or by modifying your registration hereat https://guest.cvent.com/EVENTS/Register/IdentityConfirmation.aspx?e=f819871c-99ce-45a7-9c71-28234ff6a033; the fee is $35 per person.

So a full registration for AZKATRAZ remains at $145 - and for that price, you have access to the Welcome Feast, the Leaving Feast,all Saturday through Monday programming at the Parc55, pick-up Quidditch, the LeakyMug podcast, admission to the Vendor Room and Gallery, Common Room, the Fandom Craft Faire, the auction, in-hotel film showings, the Fun with Your Flock meet-ups, the Podcasts, and a ticket to the Prison Break Ball.
