Sakura-Con Needs Your Help

Okay, sorry this is so late, but Joe just gave me the idea to post this here.

Tomorrow morning, Sakura-Con will have a group in the audience of Northwest Afternoon in Seattle. We’re gonna have a PSA played during the show. We need at least 15 people (last I heard, we were still a few short), but if we have over 30 people, then we get TWO PSAs (very good).

Here’s the info you need

Date of Show: February 8th, 2007
Number of people: 15 (Minimum, the more the merrier!)
Arrive: 9:00am
Leave: 10:50am
Show Topic: Ambush Makeover!

What to expect when you arrive:

9:00am: PSA Spokespeople (up to 8 people, who will be filmed on the PSA) sign in and go up to our studio.

9:05am: The remainder of your 15 person group will be checked in. Please advise this part of your group that they will be checked in AFTER the PSA spokespeople are checked in.

9:10am: PSA’s are shot in our studio.
9:20am: The rest of the audience (and the rest of your 15 person group) is brought up.

9:20-10:00am: Learn how to be great audience….Fun Contests (prizes anyone?)….and meet our fabulous hosts!


10:00am -10:50am: You and your group are a part of our lively studio audience.
**Your PSA will air later in the day when our show airs from 3-4pm. Your PSA will air once between 3:35 and 3:55pm.

Additional Notes

§ Please no group uniforms or similar colored tops. You can wear whatever you like in your PSA, but please have a change of clothes ready for sitting in the audience.

§ Dress as if going to a nice dinner or business attire; avoid the color white and jeans

§ No video cameras or flash photography

§ No children under 15 years of age (dependant on show topic, please call with questions)

§ Audience members could be standing for as long as 15 minutes.
