Eye on Entertainment on Time Warner Cable covered Comic-Con International: San Diego on Saturday, July 24, 2010. The event ran from Thursday, July 22 through Sunday, July 25, 2010 at the San Diego Convention Center. Dawna Lee Heising of Eye on Entertainment interviewed Kevin Sorbo, who is currently working on nine films, including “Poolboy 2: Drowning Out the Fury”. The film was written by Ross Patterson and directed by Garrett Brawith. The production sound on “Poolboy 2” was done by Gordon Michael.
EOE interviewed the members of the Ghost Adventurers on the Travel Channel. The "Ghost Adventures" crew -- Zak Bagans, Nick Groff and Aaron Goodwin -- investigate the scariest, most notorious, haunted places in the world. The trio interview eyewitnesses and historians at each location, arming themselves with the stories of the ghosts they will later provoke and confront during their dusk-to-dawn lockdowns. Then they review and analyze their findings with some the most respected experts and specialists in the paranormal field. EOE also covered the Green Hornet’s garage and new games from Sony Entertainment. David McNeil was the cinematographer and Elizabeth Heising was the EOE photographer for the event.
Comic-Con International: San Diego is a nonprofit educational organization dedicated to creating awareness of and appreciation for comics and related popular art forms, primarily through the presentation of conventions and events that celebrate the historic and ongoing contributions of comics to art and culture. Along with panels, seminars, and workshops with comic book professionals, there were previews of upcoming feature films, portfolio review sessions with top comic book and video game companies and such evening events as awards ceremonies and the Masquerade; a costume contest, and the Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival, which showcases shorts and feature length movies that do not have distribution or distribution deals.
Traditional events include an eclectic film program, screening rooms devoted to Japanese animation and gaming, as well as over 350 hours of other programming on all aspects of comic books and pop culture. Comic-Con features a large floor space for exhibitors. These include media companies such as movie studios and TV networks, as well as comic-book dealers and collectibles merchants. Comic-Con also includes an autograph area, as well as the Artists' Alley where comics artists can sign autographs and sell or do free sketches. Despite the name, artists' alleys can include writers and even models.
Academicians and comic industry professionals annually hold the Comics Arts Conference at Comic-Con, presenting scholarly studies on comics as a medium. Educational forums such as the Comics Arts Conference help Comic-Con maintain its non-profit status.
