Article Transcript
Welcome to another issue of Exaggerated Features. This is the first of this year’s two PDF-only interactive issues. All websites, email addresses, buttons and videos are clickable, but require an Internet connection to work. Just a reminder that only the Pre- and Post- Con issues (the ones that come out before and after the con) are printed and sent out to eligible members.
IN THIS ISSUE
Speaking of the con, registration is now open! All the info you need to plan to attend can be found starting on page 4. Hotel reservations can also now be made. Just think—you can stay just steps from where The King himself used to live. Pretty impressive! Though the discount for the rooms is good until October 5, don’t wait until the last minute to book a room at this unique venue. Last year’s block of discounted rooms sold out before the deadline, so don’t put it off! Starting on page 8, we have our first opinion piece from Jordan Martin. Everyone who has attended a past convention knows how daunting voting can be at the end of the week. Jordan was a huge contributor to automating the voting at last year’s convention, which did make things easier. But he has many ideas so that this process can be streamlined even more.
We have lots of other content from our members. A.J. Jensen has some great tips to help anyone with their caricatures, Bernd Weidenauer shares pictures of his gig supplies and board member Tom Faraci interviews Nasrin Sheykhi, one of our guest speakers from last year’s convention. We also have two articles from non-members. Lawyer Meaghan Kent returns after a ten-year hiatus to set things straight about copyright of art, and Lisa Kollins talks about The Superhero Project, a great volunteer opportunity for artists to make a small but meaningful difference in a special child’s life.
Lastly, we say goodbye to fellow artist Alisa Grodsky in this issue. Alisa was an active ISCA member who was always a fun person to draw and be around at the conventions. You can find info on how to donate to cancer research in her honor on page 3 and order her book Cancer Crackup on page 7.
