Cardiff Film and Comic
Con is an event where comic and movie fans alike can come together and show off
their creativity through the very popular art of Cosplay.
This event was both mine
(Louise Neale) and Melanie Peake’s first Comic Con event. We have done various Cosplay events in the
past and hope to do many more in the future.
From our experience of this year’s event, we had a lot of fun shooting
videos, mingling with the stars, having our photo’s taken and hanging out with
fellow Cosplayers.
We appeared in the
papers and were filmed for a BBC3 documentary following a disabled student who
shared our love of Cosplay and enjoys Cosplaying as Batman.
We arrived bright and
early on Saturday the 8th November where we transformed into one of
our many alter egos. We attended this
event in order to promote Paul Mohamed’s stall Heroes, Aliens and
Monsters. We have attended many events
where we have had the opportunity to promote many businesses as the one above
and hope to continue doing the same in the future.
Once transformed in to
our alter ego’s we made our way into the crowd to entertain and join group
photographs. Throughout the day we took
part in short film sequences where we were asked to act out some fight scenes
as our characters. We also took part in
radio and short video interviews as our characters.
Throughout the day we
were asked by members of the public to have photos with them and also by some
of the celebrities at the event who appreciated our costumes.
From attending this
event we have been asked to participate in further events and have been booked
into many events next year. We even hope
to travel to the San Diego Comic Con in July next year which we are currently
looking in to.
We have met so many
great people at the events that we do and have made many friends and contacts
and hope to gain more through future events.
