Act Of Membership Meeting - It Is where It Is At

The monthly Asifa-Hollywood Act Of Membership meeting is the heart of all ASIFA activities. It is the last Wednesday of each month. Lots of people, lots of work, lots of planning, some pizza and networking. A fun way to spend a Wednesday night and be part of animation history.

Last night people from large studios (I saw a DreamWorks card pass hands) people from small studios (we had the head of Smorgasbord), animation students, animators, members of the film press (Internet Movie Data Base), and people that just plain love animation got together to be part of and take part in ASIFA.

• We rearranged the archive to be ready for the upcoming move of the safe that houses a lot of the really rare stuff.
  
  
• We planned our Comic Con presence
  
  
• We lined up volunteers for 2-D Expo, Comic Con, the Aladdin Reunion, and the Scrappyland exhibit and screening.
  
  
• We had pizza
  
  
• We talked
  
  
• Networked
  
  
• Reviewed animation projects (one of the assistance animators on Robot Chicken talked about the project and her involvement)
  

When I headed home at 9:30 there were still people standing out on the street trading cards and talking animation.
