We camped at The West Seattle Travel Lodge along with several members of the cast and crew from the made-in-Vacouver independent short film Tilt, directed by Lance Peverly and produced by Patrick Stark. Based loosely on the Don Quixote story, Tilt stars Tom Braidwood (yes, there's the connection) and John R. Taylor, as well as Mike Roberds and Glenn Taranto from 'The New Addams Family', and others.

The film is finished but for costly post-production, and Gunfen at the convention, as well as many who could not make it this year, contributed real-actual-legal-tender-magnetic-strip-on-the-INSIDE U.S. dollars towards the bill. All together we raised $750 for Tilt, which looks even better when you translate that into Canadian dollars.

I arrived at the Con right after the screening of Tilt and the question-and-answer session by the Tilt attendees. This was dissapointing for me, of course, but I hope (I expect!) to see the finished product at a Film Festival before long. I heard it is fantastic, and I trust my sources!

Despite arriving late I still experienced a large part of the convention. What follows are images from our night out with the Tilt folks, our post-dinner LGM game playing and episode watching, and the following day's raffle drawings and goodbyes.
I was thrilled to meet other Gunfen and we were all thrilled to meet and talk with the people from Tilt. We feel proud to support such an excellent film and we all wish it the best success.
