LET'S TALK ABOUT COSPLAY CONTESTS
An ongoing video series created to demystify cosplay competitions
MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS VIDEO SERIES
Over the years I have really grown to love participating in cosplay contests, however the more I participate the more I am aware of how daunting they can be to newcomers. While I already run an entire cosplay-themed YouTube channel that offers a variety of cosplay help content, in 2023 I took that content to a new level and created an ongoing series about cosplay contests based on community trends and questions actively being asked by community members. This has been a massive project and I believe it will continue to be for years to come, but it has been very gratifying to answer questions, make information about contests more accessible, and to demystify the process for anyone hoping to learn about it.
WHAT TO EXPECT IN CRAFTSMANSHIP PREJUDGING
This was such a great video as someone who’s starting cosplay this motivates me a lot to stop being so anxious and just go for it — @PINKIMALLOWS
HOW PERFORMANCE JUDGING REALLY WORKS
Best video for performance advice! — @drumchuck55
YOUR FIRST MASQUERADE
LET'S TALK ABOUT MASTER LEVEL
That is an excellent point about who can call themselves a master cosplayer vs people's preconception of them. And YESSSSSSSS MORE COMPETITION VIDEOS!!!! They fuel me when i'm not at a con or actively working towards a competition project. Keeps that energy and motivation rolling. — @GreenGrassPony
WHAT WINS COSPLAY CONTESTS? A DEEP DIVE ON ARMOR VS. SEWING
the skill timeline was unexpected but a very cool visual! Thank you for bringing up the sewing being undervalued overall in society, I do feel like sewing is at least appreciated in contests (from judging perspective), if only the non-cosplayer audience appreciated it too ;o; I hate seeing people comment after the fact about costumes that were 'robbed' — @KnoviceCosplay
