[ SEMI-OPEN ] Con preparations catch-all!

[crushcard]

WHO: Kaiba, and whoever is involved in con preparations
WHERE: AROUND
WHEN: Throughout the whole of June and July
WHAT: Con preparations! Everything that goes on behind the scenes and stuff, leading on from this Retrospec post.
WARNINGS: None!


( This is mostly for closed threads that are arising out of con preparations on the admin side such as staff interviews, discussion of con sponsorships and scheduling and events etc. just so that everything happens in one place, I can track what's going on, and I'm not running around to 10,000 different inboxes while threading. I'll be creating specific starters and top levels for everything that happens as and when it comes in! You'll see what I mean :3

Feel free to mingle on the network post here, and if you/your character would be feasibly involved in con preparations with Seto or any of the convention staff, please feel free to shoot me a PM to this journal or to contact me via plurk (thelightroyale) or discord (Sarah#1309) and I'd be happy to set something up! )

[ Yugi is careful with the stack of papers. He tilts his head and tries to see if he recognizes anyone. Though no one comes to mind, he wonders if that's a good or bad thing. ]

I'm not really recognizing anyone, actually.

[ He gave Kaiba a smile anyway. ]

It's good you've been able to find people, actually. It'll make the work come about a lot easier.

[ He nods briefly in acknowledgment. He wasn't expecting for Yugi to know anyone, but it would have been helpful if he did. No matter. They'll work around that. ]

Officially, I'm listing you as their supervisor - you're closer in age to them than I am, and while I'm negotiating appearances and the like and handling our own showcases and press kits, I will leave the actual organisation of the event to you and your team.

[ A pause. ]

Some of them have little to no work experience in general, so you might want to start them off easy with small errands. I've marked their names in yellow. Orange names are those who have indicated interest to work in the press corps and marketing, I'll handle those separately.

For now, the most important thing we need to secure is booth, space and equipment rental and to confirm participation from those who have signed up for booths, just to make sure that we have enough happening to draw a decent crowd.

I've also sent a tentative schedule to your email-- [ about five minutes before Yugi got here, probably ] --so if you could take a look at that and mark up your feedback before you go off today, that would be good.

[ Supervisor? Yugi hadn't really had anything that extensive since he started, but he had to try his best! This was a good opportunity for him to work towards going to Germany, so he was going to try his best. As Kaiba spoke, Yugi was going through the list for the ones marked in Yellow, already thinking of things that they could do.

He had already glanced at the schedule, but looking at it with more depth would take time. ]

Understood. Did you want me to handle some of the press corp? I can make sure they are staying to certain areas if that would be more beneficial.

Also, for the booth, did you want me to assign some of these volunteers to making sure lines and people are staying organized?
