VOG VLOG: Sights and Sounds of GaymerX2 (Updated!)

VOG VLOG: Sights and Sounds of GaymerX2 (Updated!)

As you may have heard on some of our gaming shows on the network this week, VOGNetwork.com was at GaymerX2 last weekend. GaymerX2 took place from July 11th - July 13th at the Intercontinental Hotel in San Francisco, CA. While we were there, we shot some video and talked to some of the people at the show. Take a look at our VOG VLOG capturing the sights, sounds and most importantly cosplay of GaymerX2. Also featured in the video some of our podcasters here at VOGNetwork, as well as some fellow indie podcasters who took the stage in one of the many panels at the show, Podcast X Zone.




Special thanks to Eddy from Starboard Power Coupling for his amazing work in shooting and editing this video on behalf of VOGNetwork.com.

Update 7/24/14

The extended interviews that you see clips of in the original video are now available for viewing!

First up, Rob talks to an old pal of Orange Lounge Radio, Jonas, about his work in setting up game rooms at conventions.




Rob also was able to grab a few cosplayers for some interviews about their costumes and the expo including these moogles and their... um... kupo nuts:




And this yellow wizard (who really should not shoot the food)




And these assorted cosplayers and their adorable props:




After the Podcast X Zone Panel, Rob talked to some podcasting pals of his about the panel as well as the convention itself. First up was Jancko from the Qoopa Klub podcast:




And finally, Captain Spike from gamebuoy.org (that's game buoy dot org)




Thanks to everyone who was able to take the time out and say hello to us! Sorry we were not able to get even more interviews but we were just so busy having an excellent time at the con!

That WAS old-school OLR alum Jonas in one of the interviews! Good news, him and some of his con-going gaming group will be visiting the OLR studios in the very near future. Reconnecting at conventions-- it's a good thing :)

sweet! He'd asked me previously if you guys would be down to have him guest, but I just said he'd have to ask you guys about all that.

But good to hear he'll be on the show again.... hopefully it won't mean a ten-minute long FUs of the Week segment, though. XD

Thanks-- Eddy from SBPC put it together and did a great job! We're definitely keeping him on speed dial for future cons :)

I did interview a few of the cosplayers at the show, little snippets you see in the video. Eddy is putting those interviews together and we will put them on YouTube probably mid-weekish when they are done.
