Solicitud como profesional para Comic-Con y WonderCon

If you have an existing Member ID in our system, even if it is not a Member ID with a professional status, skip this step and apply using your existing Member ID!

If you don’t have an existing account, click here to create your Comic-Con Member ID. A Member ID is free and available to all adults and juniors (ages 13-17) with a valid email address.

This step is to assess whether or not you need to submit a professional application to be eligible to register for upcoming shows. To determine your professional verification status, log in to your Comic-Con Member ID account and look under “Account Settings” on the left of the screen. If you are a returning professional, you will see a professional verification status displayed as either “Professional (Expires:____)” or “Professional – Due.”

If “Due” is displayed, you are currently DUE. It has been more than three years since your last verification, and you will not be eligible for online Professional Badge Registration unless you re-apply and are approved as a professional. If you wish to re-apply, proceed to step 3.

Si aparece una fecha, significa que actualmente NO DEBE y podrá inscribirse como profesional. No es necesario que presente su solicitud en este momento. La fecha que aparece es la fecha en la que deberá volver a verificar su estatus profesional. Una vez que caduque, se le notificará que debe volver a verificarla.

Before filling out your application, please read the following to confirm you meet our professional qualifications. Qualifying work must be provided to indicate a professional’s involvement in these projects. If you fall under one of the professional categories below and can provide verification materials, please feel free to apply.

We cannot guarantee professional badges to those who fall outside of the categories listed above. However, all other professionals and executives who are employed in entertainment and popular arts and culture fields (film, television, toy and apparel design, and other related industries) are welcome to apply, and we will consider each application on an individual basis. Not all professionals in these industries can be accommodated, and access to badges and guest badges may be limited.

Confirm that you are signed in to your Member ID, and then click the button below to access the Application for Professionals. Be sure to fill out each field as completely as possible. If you have any questions about the application, please contact proreg@comic-con.org

The application alone does not qualify you as a professional. We ask that applicants supply verification materials as proof of active occupation in the industry.

Projects

Enter three professional projects you have worked on, with the most recent first. Since attending our events as a professional is meant to support your continuing role within the industry, we strongly encourage you to submit projects that clearly showcase your active participation and contributions. Providing such examples helps demonstrate your ongoing engagement and expertise in your field.

For each project, list the name and details of the project, the dates that you participated, and the company (if any) that produced the work. Then include any necessary files to show this, such as your name in a list of credits, or other material as listed below. Once you have chosen the file from your computer, click “Upload” to add the file to your application before moving on to the next project that you wish to list.

Verification Materials

You must include verification materials that support at least one of your projects, but it is recommended to provide verification materials for all three projects whenever possible. All materials provided should effectively verify your direct involvement in the corresponding projects.

Verification materials can include credited or uncredited work. If the work is uncredited, both proof of employment and job title must be provided. If you are not sure exactly what to submit, send information that verifies your qualifying job title, position, or type of work. Below are some suggestions to help you. Your own verification documents may differ from these examples, but you can use them as a starting point:

Credited Work

If your work appears in credits, please clearly mark where your name is credited so we can easily locate your credits.

• You can submit a scan or photocopy of the credits page, a sample of the work, or a screen capture.
• Photocopies of SAG, Writers Guild, or Directors Guild cards; end credits of a game, freelance contracts, proof of membership in the National Cartoonists Society or CAPS, or a webpage such as IMDB, MobyGames, etc. that clearly displays your name and title as an artist are also acceptable.
• All materials must be readable or your application will not be processed.

Uncredited Work

Please submit two forms of verification that show your job title and the company you work for. These may include:

• A business card AND an employee badge
• A screenshot of your company webpage listing you as a principal or executive of the company
• A letter from the company stating your name and your job title as an artist or company executive.
• If your job title does not clearly explain the work and how it qualifies for a professional badge, include a detailed description of your work.

File Formats

A continuación figura una lista de los tipos de archivo aceptados para el material de verificación: pdf, png, jpg, jpeg, gif, docx, zip, avif, webp

• Si sus archivos no están en uno de estos formatos, conviértalos o facilítenos un enlace a la obra en lugar de un archivo.
• Tanto para la verificación acreditada como para la no acreditada, no podemos aceptar enlaces de Dropbox, ya que suelen caducar antes de que podamos revisarlos.
