A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area
|
We like to watch: We're shaking things up for
2007. We've got more fan films, more video rarities, more classic films, more cool
stuff for the night-owls, fan club presentations, stuff for the Lone Star
Shindig, and plenty of video surprises. We start Friday at noon and
don't stop until closing ceremonies 4pm on Sunday. |
Friday begins with a classic movie and ends with a treat. And don't miss that
bit of Browncoat goodness in the middle either. A bit something for everybody today.

video you'd like to show off? If you can help staff the video room or have programming to contribute for
2008, please contact Alan Balthrop at video@fencon.org.
