I'll be there!
As noted... ;D

And yes, you have some big shoes to fill for Yukari (in all her various Bleach cosplays!). But I'm sure you'll make me proud, fuku taichou! ;D

Post by: Ginryuu on August 19, 2011, 07:11:58 PM
Kotsubaki Senarou reporting in Fuku-taichou!  If there is anything I can help you with just ask...you can count on me!  (Unlike some other 3rd seats I won't mention)

This time I'll be showing up as Coyote Starrk (had a blast as Ikkaku this year), and I'll be bringing at least 2 pillows with me, gotta keep it authentic after all.  Now if only I could find a Lilynette...
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: lady_tomoko on August 20, 2011, 09:18:16 PM
Kiyone Kotetsu also reporting in! ^.^  (And I HEARD THAT Sentaro!:P You're just jealous that Taicho likes me more ^^)
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: psycoreaper on August 21, 2011, 06:25:26 PM
I'll be coming as Momo Hinamori. :D

EDIT 4/16/12 Sorry guys I'm not going to be able to come as Momo this year. Due to a change in my friends cosplay plans. I'll try to come to the gathering and take pictures though.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on August 21, 2011, 07:07:51 PM
hoyhoyhoy! Be a shame if we made our honorable Ukitake Taichou look bad...>;3 consequences might include cleaning up after Bonnie Chan or worse

Squad 11 Till Death  you make me a little sad I wont be bringing Shunsui out! Can't wait to see your Starrk, Welcome back, and got you added as our first Aarancar!

lady_tomoko Atta girl! reporting in like a good Seated officer should! Would suspect you'll be helping your Taichou out if any needs arise... perhaps bring an umbrella or a fan it can get rather hot ;)

psycoreaper, Hooray for Hinamori-chan! Nice to have Squad 5 well represented ;)
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: lady_tomoko on August 21, 2011, 09:44:12 PM
Hai, Fuku-Taicho! You can always count on me to help Taicho ;) I'll bring whatever he might need!  *brings in a whole pack full of fans and parasols*  Ha, I bet Sentaro won't even have a fan! Tsk, tsk, tsk  Sentaro, I'm surpirsed Taicho has let you keep your position for being so unprepared :P
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Ginryuu on August 21, 2011, 10:49:01 PM
Well that's where you're wrong Kiyone, I do have a fan!  And it was a special gift from Taichou with our squad's symbol on it...did Taichou give YOU a fan?  So I can use Taichou's gift to keep him cool...and you can go struggle with your pack.  A useful squad member wouldn't become a burden to Taichou by bringing too much stuff.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Shinigami_Lover on August 22, 2011, 12:55:22 AM
Lisa Yadōmaru (Visore Mask) or Noba (Gigai form) are the two I think about... Thoughts?
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: lady_tomoko on August 22, 2011, 01:09:23 AM
Ha! I could carry my pack and do my job ten times better than you could! and it just so happens that Taicho gave me a beautiful parasol; it will do alot better to keep Taicho cool than some little fan will :P
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on August 22, 2011, 07:32:46 AM
:P I will stand fast with Kaien this trip...
Shinigami_Lover  <3 Welcome. Hmmm I've only seen a few Lisa's and I'm sure you'd do a Wonderful job! But Noba has been even even more illusive, gotta konzo them all? sorry mixing fandoms.
I personally say go with the one you would find more enjoyment out of. It's more fun to be in a costume that you can either show off and have fun or relax and take pride in!

It's too bad I won't be going as Shinji like I originally planned, I would've totally supported you as Lisa.  I'm going as Starrk because a certain Halibel begged me.

Yup, Halibel is very persuasive XD

I'm certain that a fan will do a much better job than a parasol.  shade can only cool you off so much while wind from a fan can work wonders!  And I'm speaking from experience on this one.

Post by: Eliteslayer on August 23, 2011, 04:22:51 PM
I should be there again, as a version of Aizen, as always. Just have to decide which version I should be this time.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Shinigami_Lover on August 24, 2011, 12:30:44 AM
Yeah now there will have a Mod Soul Section ^_^ Since Kon usually shows up too...
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on August 26, 2011, 08:17:50 PM
Alright, I agree so I added a new section "mod Souls"!

Eliteslayer I've got you down as Aizen and first in a new "surprise" section, this way we all know who's coming and wait in anticipation for which costume you'll decide on. er well you AND others who are torn between costumes. Which version is a good question @_@
However if you choose one with a Mullet We'll have to do a "mullet off" ;D

Kiyone, Sentaro, don't forget Taichou might want a snack. Give a Taichou a cookie.... ;D
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Ginryuu on August 29, 2011, 12:33:36 PM
Fuku-taichou...if I didn't know better I'd say you were trying to stir up trouble.   ;)

I won't be so imposing as to force something on Taichou, but since it has been brought up.  Taichou, would you like me to bring you a snack...or perhaps some tea?
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: kimu on August 30, 2011, 07:53:27 PM
Would taichou like a cookie? And tea?
Well, of course such things would make for a lovely gathering!
On the other hand, I can already see the mayhem forming....division 13 is already being so energetic! So you needn't overdo things!
;D

As for the "mullet off"--one year we did do the "after gathering photos at the park", and one was a bishie hair group shot. So why not a mullet shot?

Soi Fon for the third year in a row! (My bankai didn't survive the car trip home, so I'll only have my shikai this year...T-T)
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!

returning as soi Fong, my sword will finally be finished this year!
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on September 27, 2011, 11:24:06 AM
Alright, added to the list Willow17 and Firemage1000. Great to have you both back :)
Willow I cant wait to see your sword!

My friend momo will be: Uh..someone from bleach xD

I will be either: Lilyantte Gingerbuck (For you Squad 11 till death) or Nel (Kid). But if i'm not Lilynette..and momo changes her mind about who she's going to be..then i have no idea yet. xD
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!

Hey Welcome Pika-Ninja!!! It will be wonderful to have both you and your friend along! I added you two to the list and we're good to go.
Do me a favor though Pika-Ninja dont terrorize the Ukitakes too much *is kidding* they have all little girls weakness.... candy! ;D
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!

Post by: merwin86 on October 15, 2011, 12:21:28 AM
Hi, I just made a new account (formerly "Squad 11 Till Death") and just wanted to make sure you were aware of the change. I will still be Coyote Starrk for the gathering, that hasn't changed. Anyways, merwin86 will be my account name from now on, thanks.

*grabs Lilynette (Pika) and steps back into a garganta* Hey, this isn't the time to be starting a fight, you know you're not allowed to leave Las Noches until Lord Aizen orders us to begin the assault on Karakura Town. *sighs* I'm tired as hell, I'm taking a nap as soon as we get back.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on October 15, 2011, 06:25:29 PM
Ahhh but threaten MY Taichou and you deal with me ;D I have a little sister at home....one that plays with fireworks and sharks, you can't scare me.
Most Ukitake's I know are lovable and huggable as long as you dont mind the blood.

alright I gotcha change done there Merwin86!  and ha! We'll have to make sure we get a shot of the two of you!
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Pika-Ninja on October 15, 2011, 10:48:47 PM
STARRK! I know i'm not aloud to! Gosh...I wasn't starting a fight...HEY DON'T FALL ASLEEP!! STARRK!!!

Lol don't worry. I won't threaten Poor Ukitake taichou.(I love Ukitake Taichou. He's one of my favorite captains :D)

Although..i do love Kenpachi for the fact that i'm also going to be cosplaying Yachiru..but that's a different story.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: kimu on October 16, 2011, 09:10:19 AM
Yes, If Lilynette behaves--instead of fighting, she can have some candy from Santa-san instead.
;D

Actually--a Starrk with a Lilynette should be an awesome photo op!
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Pika-Ninja on October 26, 2011, 06:20:30 PM
D-DID YOU JUST SAY CANDY?!?! (I am such a kid when it comes to candy)

I promise to behave...if all the ukitakes give me a group hug!!


OOOOooOOH I REALLY WANT ONE NOW! ; n ;

Anyone trying to finish or accomplish anything new Bleach wise for Fanime? We still got near half a year and curious to see what others might be trying to get done in that time.
also any special request Photo wise? Anime LA and AX the bleach group always wanders off for food afterwards, would this appeal to anyone? Anyone have suggestions for the aria?

Instead of all of us meeting at a restaurant or something, what if we all brought some food and had like a Bleach gathering potluck/picnic thing?
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on December 01, 2011, 10:09:45 PM
Toshi! ;P

I really like the idea of a potluck....but at a convention with some of us [like me] traveling and not so local it might be more difficult to get enough for everyone. Though if people are up to committing I think it would be a BLAST!

I know right now is finals week for a lot of schools and if not that it's time to head to the relatives and Internet is a little difficult to get a hold of out on the ranch, but time is starting to tick closer and other gatherings are looking for time slots and days. So preferences anyone? Sunday, Saturday? afternoon? Super early 6 am in the morning.... Kidding just seeing if you're paying attention... Suggestions?
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Dr Mario on December 02, 2011, 07:39:51 PM
Still deciding if Omaeda will rise again. My dream of being surrounded by my wonderful captain Soi Fong has been achieved. (All be it them yelling at and kicking me) but I digress. Well I still have a few months to decide.

I figured we'd be having it some time during Saturday because we had it Sunday this year. Or are we no longer doing the Saturday/Sunday swap thing with Naruto...? I don't know much about how these are actually organized but I plan on attending both this and the Naruto gathering just like last time.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on December 05, 2011, 06:48:31 PM
Saturday is fine by me since, yes, its time for the swap. I just figured I'd let democracy still rule Just in case the Naruto  organizers would find it more convenient one day or the next. Usually there's a lot of talk and discussion over the NorCal winter gathering. That and well lets face it, it's "finals week" for many a school so I'm just waiting to see what the majority will want and or what would work best for the majority.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: kimu on December 05, 2011, 08:14:27 PM
FYI picking a time for Saturday--Final Fantasy is at 1 pm. Preferences for multiple reasons is to avoid that time zone?
;)

Think I should add meeting for lunch with a Bleach group won't be an option for me, as I'm planning to be in the FF gathering this year.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Pika-Ninja on December 06, 2011, 05:33:52 PM
AUGHKSLJDfuooguhjsdkflgsd. Lol.
I liek starks idea of the picnic lunch. I'M REALLY EXCITED FOR THIS, because it will be my first ever gathering. i'll meet so many people *sparkly eye'd*  ;D
But, if not the picnic lunch, i'd still like to go out with food with everyone, cause I'MMA MEET NEW PEOPLE, AND IMMA BE ONE HAPPY ARRANCAR.
It doesn't matter what day for me since, i just do whatever my nii-san is doing that day :/ :3
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: Firemage1000 on December 10, 2011, 09:35:43 PM
Please please  please please  please try to avoid overlap with Final Fantasy! Otherwise I might need to bolt out early to make that one which has priority
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on December 10, 2011, 10:12:45 PM
Not to worry...  there will be a large gap between the Bleach shoot and the Final Fantasy shoot! So please do not worry!!
Since I have to get Angeal on for FF, trust me facial hair isn't easy so yeah... no problems I'll be avoiding the Final fantasy shoot!

ok so Saturday, in May it can get hot so I'll be encouraging a little later shoot time. However main events [be it the masquerade this year anything can happen shush!, dance or another band] usually start around 5. My Suggestion is that picking a time between 2:30-4 would be ideal despite the warmth.

However despite the bow out to the Naruto Gathering once again I'll point out that if due to time and convenience for other Bleach cosplayers if we can set it Sunday in a way that would allow and not interfere with the Naruto gathering I'm not going to eliminate it from being a possible day. If you hear anything other then whats on the forums for Naruto merwin86, please let me know =)
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: kimu on December 11, 2011, 09:50:40 AM
As for a lunch gathering: there's over 60 people in the Bleach gathering every year, out that many people, there's no reason a group can't meet for a lunch gathering on Saturday before we have the official Bleach gathering.
The park area by the snake statue works well for a picnic-type lunch gathering, as it was done some years ago around a Bleach Cosplay Chess game there.

As for the official gathering time: Mid-afternoon sounds very reasonable.
It's a known fact that trying to figure out which evening events are going to be on which night is unpredictable and subject to change, so I agree being done before 5 pm should allow for "whatever" is on Saturday night.
I'll vote for a 3 or 3:30.

Count me in as one of my Kenpachi variants. I'm hoping I'll have time to do an upgraded version of my original Kenpachi costume, as my old spike-wig/hair-helmet is all kinds of dead. If not, I may bring out my Arrancar!Kenpachi for teh lulz. =3

I haven't seen any new developments on the Naruto gathering, but I don't see much of a problem trying to coordinate if we're gonna have our gathering later in the afternoon, regardless of which day. So with that said, I guess my vote is for 3 or 3:30 as well.

So I will be going as Timeskip Rukia
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
and bringing my little sis as Yachiru.

So what do you guys think of the new expansion? I'm personally a little bummed about the fountain being filled in. T^T But SJCC's gotta do what SJCC's gotta do. :3

I love you guys!!

wellll thanks for not keeping me up to date email ist *kicks it*

back from ALA and had a blast, now that that's over with time to look forward to the next Con, Fanime!

It's the new year and I'd like to go ahead and start trying to settle on a time, day and place with everyone's help. Please keep in mind we cant accommodate everyone but the sooner we have our gathering set, placed as we can certainly have the potential of being a very LARGE Gathering, the easier it will be for other smaller gatherings to pick their time and place.
Sounds like Saturday at 3:30 till 4:30 is sounding the best for everyone yes? Same location?

DarkLordOfTheFluff I've got you down! Welcome and I can't wait to see which Kenpatchi you bring! XD,  Mi Feng I've got you down along with your little sister..... ;)

@Mi Feng from what Kimu said there's been some plants added in which might make for nice pictures, this Shiba demands more fountains D= but I suppose in efforts to be more green it's ok. I know when some went up for the winter gathering people got a good look around the place to see what might be still good for hang out and pictures.

It's true, I was almost assaulted upon getting out of my vehicle when I attended Hyper-Con last year as Shinji. Here's the best photo of that cosplay. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=266355120056568&set=a.261815587177188.83906.100000462468267&type=3&theater

Well, speaking as someone who has cosplayed Shinji before, I'd say the only real straightforward outfit of his would be the Karakura highschool uniform (which he wears rather loosely), other than that you have a lot of freedom with his appearance. Judging by how many times he changes clothes in the anime, it really gives you a lot to play around with for whatever final look you wanna do. I say just have fun with it and be creative.

@_@ I think I might need to keep Nejibana in Shikai to keep certain Captains safe.

Kpmonkeygirl and Billgoku I've added you to the list! WELCOME!!
Indeed I'm all for "duplicates" of everyone! That would be AWESOME! Its fun sometimes to have a second third or fifth of your character running around. Quite a few shenanigans and well, hey! NEW FRIEND they like the same character you do! In short, everyone's welcomed!

I'll try to stop by Pika-Ninja ;) sounds like fun but till I know when most the gatherings are and when I'm not doing photoshoots for others I cant make any promises.

ok so prodding at some of the old skool'ers for Bleach and it seams like Fountains in Front Convention Entrance Marriott Side will be the best spot, we've been here before and well, if we want to continue after our hour shoot some of us can chill in the park near by. Any secondary recommendations just in case? Remember there has been construction in some of the aria so not everything available to us last year will be available this year.

ok sushie and Somegirlkatie I have you both added!!!

A Silver wig for Sode no Shirayuki might look really nice! I've been tempted to do that costume for a while now though I'm still really undecided what color I would actually get. If your Furisode is actually a brilliant white a silver will look really good. Otherwise if it's a cream the white would still look good.

Aww I feel all sorts of forgotten Rukia *tease tease* Excited for everyone else but your long lost FukuTaichou/Assistant Captain ;)

It's a brilliant white. :p. I cosplayed her at Anime Expo last year, but I could only walk around in it for like 1 hour before I started to die of heat exhaustion. I do hope it's not that hot at Fanime. ;_;

I think I only got a few pictures taken of me, some group of short little Rukias were spazzing out when I came down the stairs. Last year it wasn't really hot at Fanime, but then again I wasn't wearing super heavy clothes either. :X

well this is why I thought around 3 was best. It's not in the heat of the day but still before it starts getting really cool, a bit later for other shoots which usually start up at noon or 1 and before any real big events......sometimes.

With every year we've seen, no idea what the weather will be or temperature-wise either. There's even been rain at rare times....
Or wind either with sun or with clouds. So sun doesn't mean it will be warm either.

So this taichou says just be prepared for anything (if you're worried about cold have a coat or blanket handy when not in photos, if hot, sun block, parasol, water)--but most importantly plan to have fun.
Have to start thinking about the fun photo set ups in the next couple months.....

Yes, I'll do my best to not be sick! My fuku taichou is running the gathering, so he's going to be extra busy and so hopefully doesn't also have to take care of me, too.
;D

As for lunch, it looks like the FF gathering is going to mid-day (noon or 1 pm), so some of us won't be able to attend a lunch before getting ready for the Bleach gathering. But I hope it's fun!!

Or we could do a dinner?
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on February 15, 2012, 07:47:10 PM
I think "complaining" might have been too strong of a word there Hirako-Taichou. Perhaps trying to shed light to others that might have been more worthy of such an honored position as to serve as second in command to one of the first Captains of the Gote 13.
It appears I have underestimated myself ;P

Lets see what other events may be happening before we get to planning a dinner. I'm sure we can all work together to get a good photo list together in the time being.

I just noticed, in the photo-taking of this gathering.
I am going to be the only one in one of the pictures.
I feel a bit awkward now, and nervous.

LOL I know I cant wait!!! it shall be a lot of fun! haha we'll see how loud I can be ;) so far I have no doubts!

Yes, and it happens at every con I've ever been to but quite a few people will show up without posting to the forums, so no worries Somegirlkatie! If anything soak it up! ;) Being unique is a good thing! Sadly I can only wear one cosplay at a time otherwise I'd be tempted to make something to join you! the Zanpactou arch had some great character designs!

got you added OtakuDrea and DuoMonkey! Welcome!!!

Well as we're getting closer Do we have any ideas for photos? we have an hours and where I believe most of the group shots will take that time up, if there are some other ideas we can do as a group I'd like to try to see if it's possible. Do keep in mind that I will be trying to keep this respectful to all ages so any "pairing" shots save them for your own private shoots please and thank you. :)

I say we just take requests for special photos in the park like we did last year. That way everybody is happy, at least that's how I see it.

Post by: kimu on March 31, 2012, 09:22:37 PM
We are supposed to have an hour this year, instead of the accidental half-hour like last year.
Ideally we'll get all the big group shots and the smaller group shots done at the main location.
As noted, the shots with just a couple of people or pairings can be done at the park.

I hear so many good things about Fanime, this will be my first year here but not my first CA or large convention. I hope, though we'll see what work says next year, that this will not be my last. Who knows I might even be living not too far from Con next year! Alas one can dream.

I hear you on the money issues Load, in fact I'm sure quite a few of us can relate.

I'm super happy that you got a lt Aizen and a 3rd seat Gin! rare to see that! little envious ;) My Kukaku usually shows up at Fanime and sometimes ALA but I've never had the chance to take shots with a Ganju as well =( so! Share your luck! I wanna see pictures cause that's totally awesome!

Load- that's really impressive!  I can already tell the photo doesn't do it justice! beautiful work!!!

Shinigamilover- HURAAAH! Love the pictures  and the mask it just great!!! perhaps there's a head piece you can put on similar to like welding masks and such? maybe that will help. either way that is just awesome! Great job!!

you can do it Haunterluvescookies!!!!!  though I think contacts is the last on the list. ;) I know if I dont get something in my power lol My Kaien will have my not brown eyes.

Post by: weaponhex on April 20, 2012, 03:20:35 PM
@Shinigami_Lover: Your mask looks awesome, did you use clay? I was thinking of doing clay but opted for paper mache for the weight factor. I just finished putting the strapping/padding on mine. I went ahead and did the sword at the same time too and just have to finish painting it.

I lost some of the definitions of lines while mache'ing it, but I will probably touch it up later when I have more time.

This year was my "mask" year...I have made 3 masks (Rose, GT robo, and Skyrim Dragon Priest) and 1 technically from last year (No-Face from spirited away) that I will wear again this year, everyday I will have a mask for fanime  :D

I felt nostalgic for bleach this year, it was one of my first cosplay a while ago. Also gave me a reason to re-use my Gin captain cloak, although I probably will wear his street clothes, but ill probably wear it for series recognition factor

Post by: Shinigami_Lover on April 21, 2012, 12:32:16 AM
@Weaponhex - Thank you! Mine is out of the bake-able clay and it is a nice weight but right now I am trying to get the head part of it done in Ridged Rap or Paper Mache.... Your mask looks great! And you can add shadows to help if lines. YOU should wear your captain cloak to the shoot :D that would be great

@Kimu- I know it will be great!!!

By the way, I've decided what version of Aizen I'll bring this time: http://www.animejackpot.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/Sousuke-Aizen.jpg

Well technically both Rose and Shinji (our two confirmed Visoreds) are captains again so I will agree with this


In other news I finally finished the sword - wrapping the handle was the biggest pain...

Oh nice work on the sword!!

Everyone sure is getting riled up for the gathering. ;)

And I will say, another year coming up and we still don't know what bankai is for the senior captains. (Maybe in the final arc we'll find out?)

If everyone's up for it Inin yeah! I know rumor had it that the fountains are still least there. Hopefully they'll be running. This Shiba wants to take Nejibana for a spin in the water!!!! XD I'm sure I'll have to dry off a bit before Taichou will let me ANYWHERE near the room.

Very good XD  Those who want to eat an early dinner (or late-lunch, lol) together, stay at the gathering afterwards.  New restaurants opened this year.  I've been in past after gatherings.  All of them were fun ^__^

Unfortunately, the fountains are gone ;__;  The fountains have been replaced with flowers and plants.

If they are turned on - they have a tenancy to turn them off for long periods

They've been running every year I've been to Fanime.
Of course, if this is the year they turn everything off, well, I'll be one unhappy taichou with a high probability for a disappointed fuku taichou....

Please read carefully!
For the last time: I am not talking about the fountains in front of the convention center, that yes everyone that keeps up on these forums knows are gone and are now a mini-cropland farm.
I am talking about the fountains you can walk through, which are located down by the Fairmont in the park:
http://www.hargreaves.com/projects/PublicParks/PlazaPark/
Last I knew, THESE are still running.
And if they are, I have a Shiba with a shikai that needs to interact with them.
;D
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on May 06, 2012, 09:57:27 PM
Tea? Anyone?

Wownow, Don't worry. The fountains do not affect ANYONE ELSE but me. The one is still up, the second gone but no biggie. So lets not discuss this further...otherwise I'm hunting you all down while I'm sopping wet and shaking off on you in proper Shiba style even if I have to run to the hotel room. <3


Now onto stuff that actually concerns everyone
Photos guys! Ok so we have to have a nice little list ready to go within the week for BSapphire and her crew. So we do need more official notes of the photos and the order we would like to take them.
I know that there will always be stragglers that will show up about part way through the shoot. So my suggestion would be something like this:

Group shot 1:[ more or less to get people's attention and get everyone together and interacting]
Living world
Shinigami
Vizards
Arrancar
Zanpactou
Fullbringer
Official group shot of everyone [so we CAN get everyone involved and in a shot =D]
Soul Society: (individual squad shots, Visards are welcomed to join in with their former squads)
Zanpactou with respective Shinigami
Ichigos' Vs.... everyone
Soul Society vs visards Vs Arrancar



Suggestions?

OOOOOO this is making me so excited! Vs. are amazing!!! I like the idea, its how it should go. I think at least.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: inoli on May 07, 2012, 06:26:58 PM
ah ha! Yes I like the Aizen and co. Vs Everyone idea.
I would like to get main Vs Shots that involves the most people up first and then if there's time left in the hour for our shoot we can do individual Vs shots. Even if there isn't time at the main Gathering I know in the past we've headed to the park for more shots and this is where, in case we don't get to them in time, we can do the individual shots along with other derpings... lunch or early dinner afterwards for those willing to go =)

Kimu's let me know that usually we get in at least two poses per shot. I know it take a bit to Wrangle people in and to get them to co-operate, hopefully, yet undoubtedly my voice should be heard so the faster we saddle up the more poses we can do and the more Vs shots we can get in! I think 15 or so seconds is long enough for a person to hold a pose and photographers to get at least a few shots in, We'll call for a second pose and if time allows... a funny shot and then off to the next set of photos.
Granted all of these are guidelines ;) not rules.
Title: Re: Bleach Gathering 2012!
Post by: kimu on May 07, 2012, 07:33:50 PM
Agreed about focusing on bigger group shots for the main gathering, and the two/three-people shots for the park.
Although Ichigo(s) v. everyone.
And Aizen(s) v. everyone would work for the main gathering.
;P

For the park, one silly photo op idea I've had for a while--depending on there being enough Mullets there--is a Mullet group shot.
;)

Post by: ININ on May 08, 2012, 12:49:06 PM
I request a Hitsugaya vs. Harribel shot.  I missed it last year.  I'm contemplating bringing a stuffed shark :{}

Those who follow the latest Fanime press releases, it's official one of the Musicfest guests is Igaguri Chiba.  The release stated Musicfest is held on Sat.  I plan to attend Musicfest after the gathering and after eating dinner.  Those who want to join me in dinner and/or attending the concert are welcomed!

mass apologies to the Arrancar and everyone Hueco Mundo oriented. Thanks to all my helpers and everyone who kicked me into making sure everyone was up there.

Work has already told me that they will chain me to my work station if I try to leave for memorial weekend again so I will not be returning, least the possibility of it is slim to nothing. so if anyone would like to run the gathering correctly this time haha ;) Please do step forward!
