The Star Wars Philippines Holocron

Fun fun fun. I sent pics of Natalie Portman Kamiseta Billboards taken by me and Paolo D. to NataliePortman.com. And they put it up last September 18. Yippeee!!!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

SEPTEMBER 20 GENERAL ASSEMBLY #17 MINUTES

Attendees*:
Meann
Aids
Oneal
Joran
Hec
Ricky
Emil
Earl
Azrael
Rain
Rej

* Because I was late and because I don't feel like anything today, I've
decided to give 100 points to everyone who attended the assembly, regardless
of what time they arrived or whether they signed up or not. But I will be
subtracting the customary 10 points from myself for being late. If I forgot
anyone in the list of attendees, do post and I will amend the list. Thanks.

What was discussed:

1) Mos Eisley Night Evaluation
- the Sunday sked is a problem for some, because there is work the next
day. this might have affected attendance, and many people had to go home
early
- quote from Gary: "I hate the poster". :D
- something should be happening while the bands are performing sound checks
so as not to lose the audience's attention
- venue: parking problems
- more people in costumes!
- more of the "Star Wars element"!
- tighter security at the entrance. Aids suggested assigning someone
dressed as a Royal Guard to stand at the entrance. (intimidating and
effective)
- distribute flyers containing announcements, instead of announcing them
during the event.

2) Next Mos Eisley Night is scheduled for November 29, 2003, still at
Millenia Cafe. Oh, yeah, it's a Saturday this time.

3) Suggestions for New Worlds 2
- create a "costume committee", a group that will compile costuming
resources, and will help design and create costumes for SWP members
- Seminar/Workshop suggestions:
* About Collecting
* About Costuming
* "Star Wars 101"
* Lightsaber Fighting Techniques
- Contest suggestions:
* Create your own SW alien
* Grand Moff Trivia Game (more high-tech, and hosted by GM Patrick
himself, in costume. ;) )
* Arcade games/console games
- Star Wars Storytelling (for kids?)
- Possible premiere of the SWP fanfilm, "Checkmate", and the Stormballs
Mockumentary
- Performance by the Stormballs (do we even need to list this down?)
- Demonstration by the Lightsaber Suicide Squad

What else happened:
- Aids regaled us with the possible story of Episode 3, and *shudder* it
all makes sense (Note to Aids: send to me na and upload!!! :D )

SOME STATISTICS:
- out of the 183 "members" listed by Yahoogroups, there are 35 scoring members, that's 19.21% of the total number, which is a fairly good figure. :) actually, it's not an accurate figure, since some people are subscribed to the group with multiple accounts. that figure could actually be higher.

Event: Mos Eisley Night


August 31, 2003 --- Millenia Cafe


In homage to the Mos Eisley Cantina featured in Star Wars: Episode 4 - A New Hope,
Star Wars Philippines
put up Mos Eisley Night. People came in costumes, not necessarily from the Star Wars saga. They had fun watching the most hilarious Star Wars fanfilms, and listening to emergent bands, The Itchyworms,
The Purplechickens, Narda, The Late Isabel, Fish Trio, and Doh'Ahou.



Here are links to coverage of the event:

- WeAreAnime - webmaster RG co-hosted the event

- rainwalker | sunstroller

- Oneal's Imagestation album - photos and video clips

- pics from my own album
