Odin played by Brian Blessed looks down from above on Eric's struggles, pitying the poor manchild. So Odin sends his son, the barbarian Thannuth Warwolf to help Eric become a man. Much like an imaginary friend, only Eric can see the Barbarian.
The Barbarian is a wild and surreal warrior who is very much out of place in a British office environment. Warwolf is used to slaying demons and monsters rather than photocopying and dodging office politics. Yet he strives to inspire Eric on his quest to stand up to the bullies and overcome his inner demons. Can Eric unleash the warrior within? Or is he doomed to be insecure forevermore?

Jitensha (Bicycle) Short Film (1 Hour - Video - Rating: PG)
A co-worker confronts Mamoru on his apparent apathy toward life, and this results in Mamoru leaving his job out of humiliation. Now alone and without work, just as it seems that things could not possibly get worse, parts of Mamoru's bicycle begin to disappear, one by one. In frustration, Mamoru leaves a note for the thief, begging him to just take the whole thing. The note left in response is signed God, leaving Mamoru only more confused. At last, when the only remaining piece of the bicycle is a lonely bell, Mamoru receives an envelope, containing addresses at which each piece of the bicycle might be retrieved.
Puzzled yet intrigued, Mamoru embarks on a journey to resurrect and reassemble his beloved possession. As he seeks out each piece of the missing whole, Mamoru begins to discover that he himself is in a healing process. As he puts his bike together piece by piece, he realizes that he himself is in the process of being reassembled in the same way, by one far greater than himself.

Are fanzines dead? (1 Hour - Expert Panel)
Printed fanzines were once the very heart and soul of science fiction fandom. Yet, after the advent of the internet, they have apparently died out in favor of things like blogs, web pages, youtube and so on.
Personally, I tried doing a print fanzine a couple of years ago. While it was fun to do, it was a money pit.
Will fanzines ever come back? While the internet is great for its immediacy, there is much to be said for the joy of anticipation as you went to the mailbox, to either get letters from fans, or to receive fanzines that you have sent letters to.
Finally, is fandom better off or worse off because of the internet? Participants:Flint Mitchell, Barbara Doran, Marian Allen

DOCTOR WHO with David Tennant: "The Doctor's Daughter" (1 Hour - Video - Rating: PG)
The Doctor, Martha, and Donna crashland the TARDIS on the planet Messaline and are taken prisoners by the forces of General Cobb (The great Nigel Terry in one of his final roles), who is trying to conquer the other species on the planet, the aquatic Hath. The Doctor is almost immediately forced to give up some of his DNA to create a new soldier... a genetically-spawned daughter (Georgia Moffett)! So how weird is this: Georgia is Peter Davison's daughter, and David later married Georgia and they had a baby girl. So the Doctor's daughter portrayed the Doctor's daughter, married the Doctor and had the Doctor's daughter. I'd think about this more seriously, but I fear a brain aneurism.

Survivalism for authors (1 Hour, 30 Minutes - General Discussion)
Survivalism is seen as a stereotype, not the real spectrum that it is. It ranges from having funds to handle economic downturns to complete failure of society.
If you know the differences, and values of each, you can portray them properly. Perhaps 0.001% prepare for/want a full collapse. 0.5% of people can handle 6 months of no income (where all should be). In fact, few can/will survive even a partial collapse of society. Only a tiny number of authors realistically portray what it would be like.
If you understand the spectrum, you can write a realistic plot. Participants:Walter Daniels
