Animazement 2010 – page 4
I’ve been doing free face painting at Animzement for a long time now. Sometimes I wrangle an “official” table spot out of some other volunteer work I’m doing at the same time (like running a video room) but other times I just camp out in some open spot with enough flat space to set up. This year I snagged a spot by the water coolers on the top floor. It was good spot to be seen, but it meant I couldn’t sit down and work at the same time… and, invariably, the moment I tried to sit down was the moment I’d be called upon to work again. Of course, it only worked when I didn’t do it on purpose. Deliberately sitting down to attract a crowd doesn’t do squat. Quit trying to screw around with Murphy’s Law, punk.
(Historical Notes: Holy Crap, I actually did face painting more than one year after Animazement moved to Raleigh? I completely forgot about that. Like, literally, I have ZERO memory of actually doing this in 2010. I’m sitting here right now, trying to come up with some sort of detail from that year, and it’s all either gone, or so blurred together with 2009 that I can’t tell them apart… which should tell you a lot about how this year went.)
