A Fan-Operated Science Fiction and Fantasy Literary and Filk Convention in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area

FenCon Video Room

FenCon Video Room

We like to watch: We're shaking things up for 2008. We've got even more fan films, more video rarities, more classic films, more cool stuff for the night-owls, fan club presentations, and plenty of video surprises. As always, this schedule is subject to change without notice. We start Friday at noon and don't stop until closing ceremonies on Sunday.




Video Room - Friday

Friday begins with a classic movie and we spend the whole day as a tribute to SouthwesterCon 6 and 1958. We've even found some of the special programming they enjoyed at the con in 1958! To cap the evening, we'll say farewell to the legendary Arthur C. Clarke.
