“Salute to Serenity” Creation convention 2008

I have recently returned from Los Angeles where I attended the 2008 “Salute to Serenity” held by Creation Entertainment 22 – 23 November.

I had a very good time, enjoyed the convention, and it was wonderful to be able to catch up with James, Lynn, Scott and Colleen from the SoCal Browncoats and KNTR, Andy and Ben: the Qmx lads, Jason Palmer, Marian Call, Bentley and Sean from the “Bellflower” fan film and finally, meeting Beth Nelson – the outgoing CSTS 2008 Global Organiser.

As always, it was fabulous to see our BDH’s Ron Glass, Jewel Staite, Summer Glau, Adam Baldwin and Gina Torres. To everyone who agreed to speak with me – thank you and also to Gary Berman, Adam Malin and their team for running such a professional event.  Although, given the current economic climate, Heaven knows what the next 12 months has in store for us all, but if the opportunity arises, I’d certainly like to attend a second ti

You’ll be able to hear some of the fan reactions and the start of the interviews I was able to conduct in our December and January shows.

Qmx: “Better Days Big Haul Giveaway”, Creation announce Summer Glau for November and “Dr Horrible” trailer hits the web

Hope you’ve all found your way here from the previous site.  Andrew and Paul (Cadmium 2) have been using WordPress for a while and figured it was idiot proof enough for me …

Ever wondered just what 1 million cashy money notes would feel like?  Thanks to a new competition by our friends at Qmx, you just might be the lucky so-and-so who finds out!  Running from 30 June to 30 September, Qmx (in conjunction with Dark Horse comics) are saying a huge “thank you” to Browncoats worldwide for their past, present and continued support by hosting a draw where the prizes are enough to have you drooling!

To qualify, you must purchase one of their classic money packs (currently $17.95 or less than £10 for those of us in the UK!) direction from the Qmx website.  Each purchase will automatically qualify you into the draw.  Rather than me listing the prizes, why don’t you head off here to view for yourself?

Just as an aside, during our Big Damn Stateside adventure in February, I was very lucky to see the Kaylee maquette in the “flesh” so to speak and it is as pretty and cute as it’s photo suggests.  

On the 1 July, Creation announced Summer Glau as their latest guest to their “Salute to Serenity” convention at the Burbank Marriott in November.  

For our viewing delectation, Joss has released the trailer for “Dr Horrible” and you can read a letter from Joss giving details of the release here
