Logistics We work mainly on Day Zero and Day Four of the convention. Inventory will arrive first thing in the morning at the convention center day zero, and we will organize and distribute inventory for other depts. across the center. On day four we will be doing the opposite of that which is receiving and organizing inventory from the depts. and prepping it to be sent back to our warehouse. Aside from those two big days, all we ask is for Logistics staff to be present throughout the weekend for a handful of hours (typically two hours a day but not mandatory) in order to just oversee check in/out of our equipment to other depts. (i.e. dollies, etc.), or in case we need to help with moving inventory. Please contact logistics@animelosangeles.org for additional information.

Publications The Publications department is in charge of all published material for the convention, including the program book, official documents, signs, guest announcement graphics, web banners, the mobile Guidebook app, and many, many other things. We make sure the con’s official branding and “look” is maintained, work with volunteer artists to get artwork to use on our materials, and make sure other departments get the materials they need for their functions. Most of our work comes before the convention ever begins, but at con we always have need of helpers to create and deploy signs. Please contact pubs@animelosangeles.org for additional information.
