So onto Day three.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Back from Ax Day 3, and so far this day will be memorable....... not for the fact that its independence day, but more for what happened on this day.

I get to the convention and woke up partially losing my voice from the Whose Line Panel the night before but that was my fault. I had alot of fun. :3 Well as of right now, I feel like utter and total shit.

I head in and take pictures then head to the first panel which was How to Self Defend yourself as an Otaku which IMO was pretty boring so I left.

I instead went off to catch the screening to Final Fantasy Advent Children. I saw the end of it and I'm PISSED. This version of the movie, I assume was uncut. Cloud had scars, blood, and even more scenes I never even saw. I didn't even KNOW there was an uncut version of the movie which ticked me off. I did get a laugh at how everyone was cheering loudly where Cloud was kicking Sephiroth's ass. XD
I left and went off to the next panel which was Photoshop coloring.

The one memorable part about this day was that the person teaching us was showing us how Alpha channels work and it intrigued me to the point where I was going: "WHY THE HELL DIDN'T I LEARN THIS SOONER!?" She really got me interested in trying out these tricks and apply them to my own art. I was very moved even though I'm slow to pick this up sooner.

I believe I got sick from this event in particular. The air conditioning was friggin on high blast and I was freezing my ass off the entire time. It was very uncomfortable so now I'm fighting a fever.

After that event, I went off and decided to get lunch, the bus to take me to the chain of restaurants several blocks over was late so I had to endure again and spend out 9 bucks for two tacos. >_< the prices here are freaking crazy.

I didn't go to the Exhibit Hall or Artist Alleys because If I went there, I'd never leave. I only did a quick checkup to the power rangers booth and found who I was looking for. I found the Ex Pink Ranger Katherine Sutherland from Season 3 and got an autograph. After that, I got the hell out of there.

The highlight of the day was the Power Rangers Panel. I had to show up there because POwer Rangers IS the main influence and got me started on my art watching the show so it was all the more special. I did more filming this day than I have had any other day. The Power Ranger Panel had the actors:

Walter Jones: the Original black Ranger Zack
Nakia Burrese: Tanya from Power Rangers Zeo
Karan Ashley: Aisha from Season 2-3 MMPR
Steven Cardenas
Katherine Sutherland
Blake Foster: The kid ranger from Power rangers Turbo
Patrica Ja Lee: Cassie from PRT, In Space.
Selwyn Ward: TJ from PRT, In Space
Roger Velasco: Carlos from PRT, In space
Robert Axelrod: Lord Zedd himself
Barbara Goodson: Rita Repulsa
Daniel Southworth: Eric from Power Rangers Time Force, the Quantom Ranger

The event was AMAZING! People lined up and asked everyone questions to "Can you say this as so-so" etc. I have filmed part of the panel and I'm positive that this event will be up on youtube as well, seeing as alot of press was at the panel. The best part was one person asked Barbara to say "I just lost the game" which is some kind of internet meme I guess. I'm slow, bear with me.

After the first hour, the "Heroes" left and the rest of the hour was dedicated to the villians. Daniel Southworth stayed behind and was BRILLIANT with wise cracks, one lines and very funny, even though I thought he came off as an asshole in the show but wasn't.

The panel finally ended so I killed time and got in some good scenes of people doing the Caramelldansen. I'm making my own Cd mix and edit that soon. I went back to the same hallway and room to see the next panel which was the Kari Wahlgren Interview. She showed up and was very cute, answering questions, and even I went in line to ask her something. The problems here was that no one brought up Xenosaga at all during the event. She plays Pellegri, Febronia, and the 100 Series Realians. All everyone could talk about was her other roles. I have my motive to ask her two questions and do some voice requests. I was going to bring up the Xenosaga community here and on Xenolegacy and ask her questions.

It was my turn next to ask her about Xenosaga............ and then we got cut off for time. I swear to God, they NEVER even got to my question and I was next in line. I was at the mic and everything ready to ask her to say "LITTLE MASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSTEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!" and the moderator friggin ended the panel for time and I NEVER EVEN GOT IN MY QUESTION, MENTION OF XENOLEGACY AND THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE BIG FANS OF HER. And I even wasted my time standing in the longest line to chat with her and they cut me off right as I'm next causing even more injury to my already hurting back... Ugh......

You can see that when her panel is up on youtube. I'm the last guy wearing a Laker Jersey at the end of the event. I'll show you all that when its available.

After that panel, I had nothing planned so I called it a night and now I'm trying to work off this fever in 10 hours for me to go to Day 4. I WANT to go and meet up again with a couple of friends again, say goodbye and begin working on another film of mine that I have in my head, but I'm unsure if I'm going to go or not, unless I get better.

We'll find out if I'm able or not, but if this is the last day, I had a blast and I think I have more than enough to start working on my films. It was awesome meeting several of you and for the few whom I missed, I am totally sorry for not meeting up with you, but things happen.
