Note: ( ) is usually commenting on the panel and was not said.

08:59:20 <bay|AX|PIG> Good morning everybody
09:00:09 <bay|AX|PIG> Thank you so much for coming to the Production I.G. panel
09:00:16 <bay|AX|PIG> I'm sorry it's so early
09:00:31 <bay|AX|PIG> It's partially my fault since I forgot to register until 4 weeks ago
09:00:49 <bay|AX|PIG> And hopefully next year I can get a better slot
09:00:56 <bay|AX|PIG> I always get a bad slot
09:01:04 <bay|AX|PIG> Who knows Production I.G?
09:01:14 <bay|AX|PIG> Who doesn't know Production I.G?
09:01:19 <bay|AX|PIG> Who is here for freebies?
09:01:51 <bay|AX|PIG> (naming the titles that pro i.g. works on)
09:02:51 <bay|AX|PIG> FUNimation just licensed the tv and movie the other day for Blood-C
09:03:02 <bay|AX|PIG> So I'm going to show you the most recently trailer of Production I.G.
09:03:57 <bay|AX|PIG> (Sizzle reel)
09:07:43 <bay|AX|PIG> First show is Guilty Crown... who knows guilty crown
09:09:06 <bay|AX|PIG> (giving away stuff for guilty crown trivia)
09:12:04 <bay|AX|PIG> (trailer)
09:13:35 <bay|AX|PIG> Next is New Prince of Tennis
09:13:56 <bay|AX|PIG> (Going over the show details)
09:14:54 <bay|AX|PIG> (trailer)
09:15:03 <bay|AX|PIG> next one, we have a special guest for the next title
09:15:12 <bay|AX|PIG> it's Lagrange, the flowers of rinne
09:15:17 <bay|AX|PIG> and the director sato is here
09:15:47 <bay|AX|PIG> as you know he's also the director of nadesico
09:15:39 <bay|AX|PIG> which was licensed to TRSI
09:15:50 <bay|AX|PIG> (nadesico that is)
09:17:05 <bay|AX|PIG> Any questions for Mr. Sato for the show?
09:17:19 <bay|AX|PIG> It's awesome. Is that a question? Why is it awesome?
09:17:30 <bay|AX|PIG> When is S2 coming out? Already started airing in Japan.
09:19:39 <bay|AX|PIG> What was it like working with Nissan for the show?
09:20:05 <bay|AX|PIG> All the designers are Nissan, they all love anime, so it really helped.
09:20:30 <bay|AX|PIG> Where did the inspiration for the repeated Good-bye come from?
09:20:46 <bay|AX|PIG> Can't answer it....
09:20:51 <bay|AX|PIG> Very difficult question
09:20:54 <bay|AX|PIG> And now the trailer...
09:23:07 <bay|AX|PIG> Kuroko's Basketball
09:23:41 <bay|AX|PIG> (trailer)
09:26:05 <bay|AX|PIG> Star Blazers 2199
09:26:14 <bay|AX|PIG> maybe the audience born in the 60s or 70s will recognize this
09:26:36 <bay|AX|PIG> doing very very well
09:26:40 <bay|AX|PIG> hopefully it will make it over here
09:26:45 <bay|AX|PIG> we haven't finsihed production
09:26:59 <bay|AX|PIG> it's being released theatrically, they combine 3 eps into 1 and put it in theaters with the DVDs and blurays

09:28:25 <bay|AX|PIG> trailer
09:29:40 <bay|AX|PIG> How do you want to see it? DVD? Blu-ray? (audience says blu-ray)
09:30:35 <bay|AX|PIG> Next one is a Letter to Momo
09:30:47 <bay|AX|PIG> This is actually a very non-production I.G. like show, it's very ghibli
09:31:26 <bay|AX|PIG> we've had this at many film festivals and won the grand prize at the NYICFF
09:31:32 <bay|AX|PIG> and the licensor is Gkids
09:31:38 <bay|AX|PIG> who has the Ghibli license
09:31:42 <bay|AX|PIG> and they are hoping to release it this year
09:32:04 <bay|AX|PIG> trailer
09:34:42 <bay|AX|PIG> took 7 years to produce
09:34:48 <bay|AX|PIG> all 2d with a little bit of 3d
09:34:50 <bay|AX|PIG> all hand drawn
09:35:05 <bay|AX|PIG> written and directed by Hiroyuki Okiura, the director of jinroh
09:36:03 <bay|AX|PIG> Did making Jinroh hurt his soul so much that he made this?
09:36:42 <bay|AX|PIG> I don't know, but he loves to do stuff, the very kid stuff... jinroh, he wanted to start from his own original concept, he didn't write the scripts
09:36:53 <bay|AX|PIG> and moving on
09:37:28 <bay|AX|PIG> Blood-C - The Last Dark
09:37:34 <bay|AX|PIG> It's doing well in japan
09:37:41 <bay|AX|PIG> Funimation has licensed it, announced yesterday
09:37:45 <bay|AX|PIG> it's pretty erotic....it is
09:38:04 <bay|AX|PIG> there are a couple of scenes done by uemetsu
09:38:27 <bay|AX|PIG> we're not going to be showing the scene....
09:38:52 <bay|AX|PIG> (crowd awwws) i know but you need to buy it from funimation
09:38:54 <bay|AX|PIG> trailer
09:40:20 <bay|AX|PIG> Q: So clamp worked on the show and movie... so it's not just them working on the show, but it crosses over to the clamp universe... how did that happen?
09:40:54 <bay|AX|PIG> A; (paraphrase: Pro I.G. are clamp fans and vice versa and they decided to take a big franchise )
09:41:31 <bay|AX|PIG> Q: How much control did Clamp have over the story?
09:41:36 <bay|AX|PIG> A; They had a lot of control
09:41:46 <bay|AX|PIG> but we also had fujisaki who worked with them
09:42:16 <bay|AX|PIG> and we were able to negiotiate changing some things we didn't like
09:45:01 <bay|AX|PIG> what i'm about to show you is Library Wars the movie and Cyborg 009 (009 Re: Cyborg)
09:46:26 <bay|AX|PIG> All right, i have a lot more i wanted to say, and i'm running out of time
09:46:30 <bay|AX|PIG> i want to thank you all for coming
09:46:36 <bay|AX|PIG> and one more question
09:46:50 <bay|AX|PIG> this is the production i.g. us 15 yr anniv
