On Saturday, December 6th, the first ever a live, free, online, direct-to-fans personal convention experience called CON-CON is set to launch.
Two of our favorite convention regulars, voice-over stars Yuri Lowenthal (Prince of Persia, Ben 10, Sunset Overdrive) and Tara Platt (Legion of Superheroes, Naruto, Persona) are behind this brand new convention event.
The free 6-hour online event will be packed with live panels filled with celebrity guests from TV, film, videogames, and animation, an online ‘dealers room’, ‘artists alley’ and even swag give-aways. Plus, registered fans will get a first-look opportunity and special discount for the new mockumentary feature film, “Con Artists” which releases on Vimeo’s On-Demand platform on December 10th.

“It was really important to us that the fans of this world have easy and direct access to the film. We made it with them and for them and we want them to be able to watch it as quickly and easily as possible. When looking at the traditional distribution platforms we realized that it would make it harder for those fans to access at a price point that we felt fair, so we decided to step away from the old system and get the film as quickly, easily, and cheaply into the fans hands.” Platt added, “And we couldn’t think of a better way to introduce them to the finished film than by inviting them to a con made especially for them.”
Lowenthal also noted, “Con Artists screened for audiences at conventions in London and Vegas to rave reviews and we can’t wait to get it to the rest of the fans world-wide. In the meantime, come to Con-Con!”
