We would want to hear your views on “Do you prefer long shoots for perfect photos or short shoots fitting in as many photographers and why?”
Do you like working with photographers who have a clear idea of a photo and take as long as it takes to get that one or a selection of photos but leave you less time to work with others and see the event? Are you the type of cosplayer who wants to shoot with as many photographers who can work quickly? Or you don’t mind as you may have attended many events and you just want to enjoy the event and go at your own pace.

08/05/2023Monday DiscussionWe want to hear your views on “Is there an aspect of Cosplay Community or you’ve seen at comic con you want to understand more about and why?”
One area that comes to mind is the social dynamics of the cosplay community and how people build relationships and connect with others through their shared interests in cosplay and related fandoms.
For example, it might be interesting to understand how people form cosplay groups or “cosplay families” and what role these relationships play in their cosplay experiences. Additionally, it could be insightful to explore how the cosplay community navigates issues such as inclusivity, diversity, and representation, and how these issues intersect with broader social and cultural trends.
Another area of potential interest could be the intersection of cosplay and entrepreneurship, as many cosplayers have turned their passion into a profession by creating and selling costumes, props, and other merchandise. Understanding the business models and creative processes behind successful cosplay-focused businesses could be a fascinating topic to explore.
Overall, the cosplay community offers many avenues for exploration and research, and there is always more to learn about this vibrant and creative subculture.

01/05/2023Monday DiscussionWe want to hear your views on “Would you still work with someone if you know they’ve had any negative comments and why?”
If the negative comments are related to unethical behaviour, discrimination, or harassment, it may be appropriate to reconsider working with that person. On the other hand, if the negative comments are related to performance or other minor issues, it may be worth considering the person’s strengths and abilities, as well as any steps they may have taken to address the concerns that led to the negative comments.
Ultimately, the decision to work with someone who has received negative comments should be based on a thorough evaluation of the situation and an assessment of whether that person would be a good fit for the particular job or project at hand.

17/04/2023Monday DiscussionWe want to hear your views on “How long do you wait before contacting a photographer about the whereabouts of photos and why?”
Waiting for photos from a photographer that were taken at a comic con, can be an exciting but also an anxious time. Waiting for photos can be part of the photography experience. It’s essential to trust the photographer you work with and believe that they will deliver the best images possible.
Most Comic Con Photographers are not Full-Time photographers but take photos as part of their hobby, so with that in mind, how long would you wait, do you have a deadline for which you are no longer interested in the photos, is there a set time you’d wait before asking or you are happy to receive them no matter the length of time?

When it comes to editing cosplay photos, the amount of editing someone might want is a personal choice and can vary depending on the individual’s preferences and the purpose of the photo.

Ultimately, how much editing would you like in your photos you might get back from the photographer, is it important to you that your photos are edited and a lot of work has been done to it or do you prefer to keep the photo as natural as possible?

Additionally, having a more organised event layout and clearer signage would help people navigate the comic con more easily and make it easier to find what they are looking for. What would you change
