Hi again! As several of you know, I enjoy giving presentations on KEY works at conventions. Over the past several years I’ve made a habit of presenting at Anime North in Toronto as there always seems to be a sizable number of KEY fans in attendance.
This year I was particularly excited to give a presentation on Angel Beats!, covering it’s development from original concept to the upcoming release of the visual novel. This is in part because I had never presented on a future release before, and also because I was unveiling some early character concept images never formally released to the public. Don’t worry; I notified VisualArt’s of my intentions and they didn’t have an issue with it. (Na-Ga even chose to independently unveil some concept images after my correspondence yet several weeks before the presentation. A post was made on this site about his release.)
You can find the presentation video below. I had to maintain a fast pace to present 74 slides in 55 minutes, so please excuse the handful of verbal slip-ups. I should have already made annotations to correct them.
Special thanks goes to Jacob Sundberg, Anthony Zarifa, Ralph Malunes, Denpa, and Cloud668 for their assistance in the presentation’s recording and ticket/prize/CD distributions. Complete credits, citations, and disclaimers can be found at the end of the presentation video. Comments welcome. Enjoy!
