In case you missed it, CBR has a live(ish) video feed at New York Comic Con this weekend and we want you to get involved!

What we're doing is this: every three seconds our video camera takes a snapshot of a section of the show floor. At the end of the hour our servers stitch together all those snapshots and create a :60 second video of the previous hour on the show floor. It's a fascinating look at what foot traffic is like at the convention all weekend. Here's where you get to have some fun.

We want you to show up at the convention and hold up a banner to our camera, saying whatever you like! You can promote your new comic, say hi to your girlfriend or boyfriend back home, whatever! Try to keep it clean and please, we're hoping not to get mooned. Your best vantage point would be to stand in the 1600 aisle between the Funimation and Jim Hanley's Unvierse booths. Hold your sign up to the large skybox for one minute and our all seeing cameras will capture you for the world to see!

The camera will be operating all weekend long through Sunday, but don't waste any time! Get in there early!

And don't miss our complete NYCC coverage index right here, updated live all weekend!
