42 INTERACTIVE INNOVATION AWARDS & GAMING AWARDS Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew Chiefs: Justin, Natalie, Ashley Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Days of Operation: March 14, 15 and 19, 2016 Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Check In: Volunteers who work on this crew will check in at Austin Grand Ballroom, located on the 6th floor of the Hilton Austin, 500 E. 4th St. Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew Duties/Areas of Responsibility: The Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew hosts two events: the Interactive Innovation Awards and the Gaming Awards, as well as hosting the Interactive Innovation Awards Finalist Showcase. The crew also manages the logistics for a reception prior to the Gaming Awards. Some of the volunteer tasks will be checking badges, presenting awards, wrangling talent, registering VIPs, and constructing table decorations. Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew Attire and Reminders: Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards volunteers should wear the SXSW Volunteer t-shirt and tasteful bottoms. Volunteers may be on stage during the performance and should dress accordingly. These events tend to be more upscale in nature and the volunteers have higher visibility. This is your chance to shine! If you will be working before you receive your credential (for example, you may be waiting for a music badge, but working during Interactive) you will need to pick up a working volunteer day pass from Volunteer Central. What Else Should Volunteers Know About the Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew: If a volunteer is reliable, willing to work hard, and have fun, this is the crew for you. And if you don't know what a dongle is before you volunteer, you certainly will know by the time your last shift on this crew is over! How to Contact the Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew: Volunteers who work on the Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew are asked to first email the crew chiefs if you are going to be late, miss a shift or need other assistance, time permitting. The Interactive Innovation & Gaming Awards Crew email is sxiaawards@gmail.com. If it's less than 2 hours prior to the start of your shift, email your crew, then call the Flake Task Force at (512) 404-4623 if you're going to be late or miss the shift.
