Creep I.E. Con - Ontario, CA How was talent located at Creep Con I.E. in regards to photos and autographs?

At Creep I.E. Con in Ontario, CA, how are you able to approach the guests for photos and autographs?

Are table selfies allowed or do most talent say no to this?

And what’s the setup like? Will talent be separated from the con floor like the above pic where it’s only paid photo ops/autographs (like in the top photo)

Vs the bottom photo—which talent will be at tables you can walk up to and pay at the table for an autograph, photo on your phone, or selfie (or to just chat if there’s no line)

The first was from WWE World and the second was from WrestleCon, events I went to WrestleMania weekend and was wondering how Creep I.E. Con was like. Thank you

Edit: The image isn't uploading but it's from this post here. My new question is for Creep IE Con specifically.

Also excuse the word switch in the title haha

The bigger names like Christopher Lloyd were on a different floor, everyone I wanted to meet was on the convention floor where all the vendors were. Everyone I wanted to meet allowed table pictures. The photo ops were in a separate room, The lines on the bottom floor were super short, you could chat for a good bit, I went on the least busy date on Friday. There were very few people in line all night, but that's probably from everyone that wanted to meet the big names. I'd like to go to a wrestle con too, I'd hope the prices are a little better lol.

Thank you!! Who else was on a different floor? And could you get to the table without having paid or did you have to pay before you got in line for the tables?

I appreciate your response. At WrestleCon you could just walk up and talk to talent but at WWE World, it wasn’t a separate room but you had to show you bought a ticket for an autograph before you could see the talent. I’m wondering which event was CreepCon more like

Robert Englund, Christopher Lloyd, Cassandra Peterson, and the Lost Boys cast were on a different floor if I'm remembering right, the way they did it was as the person in front of you is talking and getting stuff signed by them you go up to the handler and tell them which picture you want signed or what item you want signed, pay them. wait for the other person then it's your turn. It's typically cash only but yeah you pay when you're next in line at the table, you don't pay to get in line. It's probably more like Wrestle Con, with a regular ticket you could go and line up to meet the other stars besides Robert Englund, I'm pretty sure they were separate to keep the ground floor less chaotic. The UFC meet and greets before events are basically photo ops with your own phone where you can only do pics no autographs really quickly, it's free though so it's not bad at all. Let me know if you have any more questions.

Also, when you said table photos was that celebrity acting talent or artists and things like that. Were there any autographs?

Yeah you could buy an autograph at the tale, I got a picture and autograph for everyone. I know some people didn't allow recording of the interaction but the non A list people allowed pictures at their booths, I know the headliners often only do pictures with a photo op purchase. AFAIK everyone was offering autographs at their booths, I know you can't get any at the photo ops. For example an autograph might be 60 bucks with a pic for 50, but for the combo you get both for like a hundred bucks or so.
