Masquerade

The Masquerade is one of Anime Milwaukee's staple events (well...it's a staple at most other conventions too, but that's beside the point.)
Each year, we invite those interested to sign up to showcase their handiwork and compete for nerd glory.

The Masquerade is held in Main Programming (Frontier Airlines Center) on Saturday, February 18 2012 at 7:00pm CST

There are 3 categories (Walk-On, Group Walk-On, and Skits)
with 3 skill levels (Chibi, Beginner, and Advanced) plus Exhibition

If you're interested in participating:

Online registration for the Masquerade for this year has finished. You can still sign up for the masquerade on either Friday or Saturday at the con. See you guys there!

General Rules:

• To be eligible for awards, at least 50% of an entrant's costume must be made or modified by the entrant. For groups, each member must meet this criterion.
• Costumes that are bought/commissioned and modified less than 50% must enter the exhibition. Costumes that have previously won awards at any other con (including Anime Milwaukee) are also highly suggested to enter in exhibition.
• The Chibi skill level is for entrants under the age of 12 at the time of the convention, and for groups where 75% or more of the members are under 12.
• Entrants should enter the Beginner or Advanced skill levels depending on where they think they belong. The contest coordinator and judges may move an entrant into a different category based on the work presented. Entrants found intentionally entering a category below their skill level may be disqualified.
• Skits are limited to 4 minutes in length.
