Contests

Each year Sakura-con hosts a variety of contests, from Anime Music Video contests to the Fanfiction/Manga Contest! Anyone can enter from the first-time artists to the professional video editor as long as you're a registered member. There are a variety of prizes and categories, and room for everyone to compete. Many of these contests require entry deadlines prior to the convention, so check for updates!

• Sakura-Con Commerical Contest -- Create a commercial that will entice people to become members of ANCEA and attend Sakura-Con 2011. (deadline Feb. 1)


• Extremely Hard Anime Quiz 2011 (zip file) -- This panel and contest is brought to you by Ronald Mar, who has put together an in-depth, 50-question quiz covering a broad spectrum of subjects, from calculus to architecture, art to history, astronomy to music. It will force you to think about anime you've seen in a whole new light, and hopefully give a deeper appreciation for some of the construction that goes into anime. Prizes will be given at the Sunday panel. Rules are included in the zip file.
