Cosplay Cascade - KitaCon 4 (by ManyLemons)
I’m at 2 mins 50-ish. le cringe.
eep! i’m in this! at 0:42, as Princess Garnet with my back to the camera with Eilidh as Rinoa and a lovely girl whose name I forgot to get as the other Princess Garnet and at 2:29 as Merrill with some of the fabulous Dragon Agers :3
Thanks to you both for being patient with me XD The clips came out great!
Sorry I only got your back in this one! I had a long shot of you used later on but switched it for one with more going on at the last minute T_T didn’t want to cut you out and I really liked the shot of Holly playing with your headpiece XD She goes by Kamiko on CosplayIsland if you’re still after her name!

One day I will stop getting Matt to take jumping photos of me. That day is not today. Nor was it a week ago.
Not gonna lie, mainly posting this up to stop Ria from bulling me to do so. I’m not your Tumblr jester, dammit! Well, actually I suppose since I posted this I am, sort of…but still!
Well, stay tuned for more of my derp-tastic face (and everything else) I guess. Still more evidence of KitaCon to emerge yet.
Psst that’s a warning to run while you still can. I wont mind, honest :xThat stupid whippy tail hood… I have bruises!! I’m gonna get you back so hard at Expo.
You look as brilliant as anyone could look flying through the air <3

All the pimpings: Meltopian’s first AMV, it requires some love. Enjoy!
So I guess I’d better do a Dad post at last!
Thanks to Foxy for taking such amazing photos and to felixize for letting me do that to her.
And please check out Nert’s Awesome Videos too!

Whats with the checkerboard in the background?
It’s part of an event called Cosplay Chess, cosplayers get assigned as pieces, stand on the board and a scripted game is played out - every time a piece is taken the board is cleared and they battle it out in a little rehearsed fight before resuming.
Odd as it sounds it works really well as basically a 30 minute skit show of people wiping the floor with each other. Or smacking them in the face with a pie.
So I guess I’d better do a Dad post at last!

Annoyed I missed the moment of pie impact in the video? Foxy didn’t, hurrah!
I made a video, it has some cosplayers in it.
oh my gosh this is so good
THIS IS AMAZING
oh wow
If anyone thinks cosplaying is childish and dumb, please watch this.
It’s so much more than that. This video is beyond words…at several parts I actually started crying because everyone is just having fun and not caring whether or not people think they’re weird or strange or anything. Every person here is beautiful and fantastic and hilarious and just…oh god…
I’m sorry gosh I’m crying so hard right now I can’t believe I almost gave this up because I felt awkward and stupid and isolated and I desperately wanted to fit in with everybody else. But because of this video…I don’t feel so alone anymore.
Cosplaying has become a huge part of my life, and I don’t think I could stop even if I wanted to. I’ve never met such nice, happy people who are comfortable in their own skin and in their interests. This community has changed the way I live and the way I view myself.
I don’t care that I may be judged or defined by what I like and what I do.
Thank you to who made this video. I’ve been struggling with parents and family looking down on me because I’m interested in cosplaying, and this has convinced me not to give up on what I love.
(now excuse me while i go get some tissues…)
((btw my favorites in here are the el dorado guys, the jade/dave/john, the dad/vriska scene, the girl with the huge claws, shiek and zelda, tinkerbell and peter pan, and……everything))
Happy to hear it’s made someone’s day XD This post made mine!
reblogging again just for that text comment ;_;
i love this omg nvjdkvfngdr omg the dad vriska part made me laugh
I’ve always wanted to be part of one of these videos… this one’s really good help
i just teared up oops
This is so beautiful. c:
;u; This is why I really want to become a professional cosplayer, it can be such a fun and wonderful hobby/lifestyle and you can meet so many amazing people~ :3
I loved the part with Dad and Mindfang :D And I loved the STRength cosplayer (Girl with humongous claws)I have so many feelings for my community. ;n; I LOVE YOU GUYS SO MUCH.
Sometimes I think “Wow, dang, I want to be a cosplayer, a great one, it would be so much fun”
But then I remember that I am short, fat, with a scarred face and dark skin.
So I just give up on life
Why let that stop you?
Mascot costumes can be made to fit anyone inside, take Gyarados there! I’ve made plenty of costumes in non-human shapes that can hide just about anyone small or flexible enough inside, doesn’t matter what they look like, because now they’re a bubble-blowing dinosaur or a luggage chest with a dozen legs!
There’s no reason you can’t dress up and have a good time of it, naysayers be damned. Plus, if it worries you enough then there’s always facial prosthetics, latex masks, armour and helmets, space suits.. Really big wigs.. Makeup in the right hands can work wonders. Imagination is the only limit. Well, and money I guess.

Beyond all the drama and stupid fandom fights, this is what it’s all about guys.
You see, I went through this telling myself not to cry, that over the course of my life I have made at least one cosplay as good as some of the lesser ones featured here.
And they’re only going to get better.
My camera work, however, will never in a thousand years with very expensive cameras and jibs be that good, so I should just focus on the costuming.
Hey don’t be so sure - this was my first attempt at filming like this, and while I wouldn’t call the gear cheap, it’s not super pro level by a country mile! Going to do a writeup on how to film them, for people interested :)

‘Tis a first attempt but I’m happy with it, and hopefully there’ll be more to come in future. I’ve met many awesome people through conventions and cosplay, and this is a little something I want to give back.
