Cosplay interviews at PAX Australia - Introduction

While I was at Pax Australia, I took photos of cosplayers (because I'm a photographer). After talking to them about their costumes while photographing, I though "This is interesting, I should record it". So I did.

My next post is the first in a series of interviews with cosplayers.

I learnt a few things in the process of these impromptu interviews. Next time, I
should:

  • Get people to introduce themselves with names up front.

  • Bring a better microphone

  • Bring someone else to hold the camera

  • Take some reaction shots, in case I want to get fancy and actually edit the videos. (Credit to Mike Moore from Frontline for this tip)



I plan to do more of these, so I'd love to know what you think of them. If you have any comments, please tweet me a message or email me at cosplay@abznak.com.
