Now Recruiting: Speakers for Ponycon Panels!
Britannia needs YOU!

Britannia needs YOU!
;D ;D ;D
Following the popular success of the live panels and demos in 2009, this year we are looking to expand the number and variety of sessions on offer to provide interesting, informative and hands-on fun for our guests on both Members Day and the Main Day!
If you would like to present or take part in a panel on the Main Day or Members Day, please PM Jemofirongate, with a brief outline of what you would like to present, and whether you will be available on just the Main Day or both days.
We are particularly interested in recruiting speakers on the following subjects:
- 2-4 collectors for an informal chatshow panel sharing childhood stories and memories - no prep required! Note - Members day only.
- 2-4 artists for a panel demonstrating hand drawing of ponies, where our guests can have a go too!
- Customisers, demonstrating techniques for guests to try out on some bait, such as re-hairing, painting eyes or symbols.
- Restorers, who can diagnose common MLP condition problems, and techniques for prevention and cure.
- Crafty people who can lead a workshop showing guests how to make a MLP-themed crafty item in 30 mins - and take it home with them!
Or anything else you can think of!
What you need to know about our panels:
- Each panel slot is a maximum of 30 minutes
- Each panel may be run twice, at different times, to allow us to run different panels simultaneously
- A separate room with tables and chairs will be provided for hosting the panel
- If you are presenting you will need to ensure that you are prepared before the session begins, and bring all materials you may need. If you are having any difficulty or need particular facilities for your talk, please contact Jemofirongate and we may be able to help
- Some of the Main Day volunteer team will be assigned to assist presenters in preparation for the panel sessions if you feel you need an extra pair of hands!
Please help us to make PonyCon extra special this year, by sharing your expertise with fellow members of the MLP collecting community!
