Screening at Gen Con

Film Festival Official Selection

Mind's Eye the Fantasy Series has been invited to screen as part of the festivities of Indianapolis' famous gaming convention, GEN CON.

Gen Con Indy is the original, longest running, best attended, gaming convention in the world. For over 41 years, Gen Con Indy has been setting the trend and breaking records. Last year, more than 100,698 turnstile and 30,000 unique attendees experienced Gen Con Indy. The biggest complaint we hear is that there is simply too much to do, see, and experience. Get lost in a phantasm of art exhibits. Stare at jaw-dropping costumes, or better yet, wear one of your own. Meet the movers and the shakers in the gaming industry. Check out the newest games and get a sneak peek at the latest editions.

And the best part about that description is that Mind's Eye is going to be there on the film track as part of the film festival. The creator and subsequent cast/crew will be in attendance on a panel during the weekend so don't be shy!

The W5 of this event;

Who - Mind's Eye Series

What - Gen Con Indy 2011

When - August 4-7 Weekend

Where - The Indiana Convention Center, Corner of E Maryland Street and S Capitol Avenue. The official address is 100 S Capitol Ave.

Mind’s Eye Coming to Anime North

In an already busy season of conventions and festivals, the cast and crew of MIND’S EYE have added another stop to the tour, this one closer to our own backyard. Synn Studios and Lynnvander Productions are proud to announce that they are teaming up with Polaris to bring MIND’S EYE to ANIME NORTH, Canada’s premiere fan-run anime convention.

Unfolding the weekend after Victoria Day (or on the Memorial Day long weekend for our American friends), May 27th to 29th, Anime North takes place at two locations: the Toronto Congress Centre and at the Doubletree International Plaza Hotel, near Pearson Airport. The con attracted nearly 17,000 visitors last year thanks to its combination of special guests and programs like the Skit Contest and Anime North Idol.

So what’s MIND’S EYE bringing? How about the first public test of the MIND’S EYE video game? Team 7 Productions is putting the finishing touches on the beta version of the game, where players will be able to try on their favourite Dreamweaver from the series and fight the evil Shadow’s Hand minions, The Dolgrath’s Girl Friday Maya, and the Big Red Bad himself. Fans of the original FINAL FANTASY for NES will definitely want to check this out.



As well, the team will continue play testing the MIND’S EYE-related role-playing game, “Dreamweaver.” Our last public test was at Wizard World Toronto, so put on your gaming hat, grab your 12-sided dice and get into the worlds of MIND’S EYE and put your imagination to the test.



Coming up next in the MIND’S EYE world tour, a stopover in St. John’s NFLD (and a homecoming for MIND’S EYE writer Tom Brown) at Sci-Fi on the Rock starting this Friday, April 15th.

Two Cons in Two Weeks

The creators of Mind's Eye, Thomas Gofton and Tom Roper-Brown are gearing up for a back to back set of weekends as they travel the Canadian North to attend two conventions to promote the show.



The first convention, Ad Astra, which is held in Toronto is a literary convention that celebrates all things in literature. The creator team will go to celebrate the world of screenplays.

The second convention is called Sci-Fi on the Rock. Our co-creator Tom Roper-Brown, St. John, Newfoundland born writer will return home to see his family and friends! Join us Saturday at 2pm and/or Sunday at 4pm for a special panel on the show as well as some sneak previews!

Sci-Fi On The Rock is Newfoundland's premiere science fiction & fantasy convention. Our 5th Convention takes place on April 16th and 17th of 2011, and promises to be the biggest and best convention yet.

Sci-Fi On The Rock is a not for profit organization based in St. John's, Newfoundland. The Convention is for the fans, brought to you by fans. In order to keep bringing the fans the very best Science Fiction convention in Newfoundland, we need the support of the fans. Each year there is a Charity Auction that donates proceeds to Charity, as well as a silent auction for fund raising for the convention. This year we have also added a donate button to the menu of the web page as a way for the fans to help support the convention.

If you are in the area and are thinking of going to the con....come visit our booth or attend our panels!
