*Note: I realized the money numbers in the corner is a little confusing since it's listed differently than most other AA vloggers, but that is the TOTAL cumulative cost/profit on everything related to the con up to that point!* It's been a really long time since I've posted anything on Artist Alley 😮 I was at Anime Boston's Artist alley earlier this year, so here is a behind-the-scenes of my time there, some cost & profit information, and some personal thoughts on how AA at anime cons have changed in the last several years! 0:00 Intro 0:18 Getting to the con 3:17 Sales trend & estimating revenue 4:53 Brunch & Day job @ the library 5:39 Full-time artists and addressing "AA all looks the same" 6:37 Set up 7:11 Applying to conventions 9:17 Day 1 & convention venue 11:28 Day 1 re-cap & AB Staff 13:52 Day 2 & improvements in merch production 15:23 Day 2 re-cap 16:43 Day 3 17:27 Final $$ and the true cost of AA I hope this is useful to someone!!
