I’ll use my flames for a better purpose!

Whilst I edit Oz Comic Con shoot's photos let's continue uploading those from Supanova.
Next up is this awesome Blue Exorcist group. I shot with them at AMC, and again at OzCC, they're a bunch of great cosplayers who make the shoots fun and lively. I'm looking forward to seeing what they have planned for their next cosplays.

Oz Comic Con 2016

Last weekend as Melbourne's Oz Comic Con! It was my first Comic Con ever and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.
Over the years I have heard how terribly run the Comic Cons have been, with last year people finally pointing out some improvements. I didn't get to see much of the convention, as I was helping out at Tentacle Spine's stall, but when I did get a chance to wander it was well set out, with the space clearly being divided into Artist ally, bigger stores, and then signing area. A nice touch was that the entry lead straight into the artist ally; promoting local artists over the stores.

An annoyance was that the convention was right down at door 10 in the exhibition center, but with at least 2 other conventions on at the same time someone had to be in the back. Though to try to help make it easier OzCC divided the hallway into two so that those who still needed tickets took up one side whilst those who already had tickets could come and go. Whilst this attempt was appreciated, they divided it so those waiting were on the right hand side, meaning when people left they had to cut across the queue coming in. Australians naturally go to the left so this was disruptive. And it wasn't until Sunday afternoon that they began to widen the 'already have passes' section, so the rest of the weekend that area was cramped as less people needed tickets.

It was so busy too. But not just the regular crowd, older generations and families were attending, which was really great to see. This convention gives me the feeling that if it was run really well Australia could start having a convention the size of America's Comic Cons. They used Pax's tape on the floor of for queues (I am so thankful for this trend), the panels areas (whilst I didn't get to see any) were obvious and stood out, usually they are just little boxed in spaces that I don't realize are for panels until the end of the weekend. The cosplay area was a nice spot, and the addition of back drops let people have better shots without the crowds in the background. And the artist tables had a lot of space behind them, which for Tentacle spine with five people, and one getting into Immortan Joe, was amazing.

Overall I did enjoy this convention. I didn't get to see much of it, so I don't know if that would have changed my mind, but from what I saw it was pretty well run and organized, and I think it will be a convention that I start attending now.

But enough about the convention it is time for Photos!

Catching up on Supanova posts. This time with Eloquent Mx Loki's casual Kylo Ren. I really love the scar they did for this cosplay, and I helped with this; drawing the parody art for their shirt.
We did a quick shoot at the showgrounds, but followed it up with one at home with my sexy ring light to show off the awesome work put into their makeup and special effects.

Being smart spoils a lot of things, doesn't it?

I have been slow in posting the results of Supanova photoshoots, especially now I shall be attending Oz Comic Con. But uni is in its final weeks, so once I'm on holidays I can catch up to a regular posting schedule.

But back to Supanova shoots, and I got to work with the awesome Kibble King Cosplay! I have loved her work since I saw her Breakfast Princess cosplay at Chaoz, and have since been following for the great work and cute couple cosplays~ At Supanova they cosplayed from Hannibal, with gorgeous tailored clothing.

Supanova 2016

This past weekend saw the start of Victoria's convention season with Supanova!
This year I opened up bookings for 30 minute shoots for the first time. I really enjoyed this set up; it allowed me to photograph some awesome cosplayers more creatively and thoroughly than just con floor photos. It also let these cosplayers get great photos of their cosplays; I know how much effort people put into their cosplays for a con, but they're not always able to do photoshoots outside of events.

Because of these shoots, I didn't get much time to take in much of the convention, but I still had a good time. Supanova once again blocked off a section of the show grounds. This is a feature that I do like; it means you can go into the buildings a lot quicker and easier as the process isn't slowed down by getting out our wristband and making sure the person can see it. They also separated the celebrity photos/signings from exhibitor's hall, which last year made exhibitor's nervous but I think greatly helped with crowds this year. Saturday was packed, the busiest I have ever seen it and if you had the celebrity lines in the exhibitor's hall it would have been chaotic. The crowd grew worse with the weather, when rain began people would try to pack into the hall, leaving little space to move. In comparison Sunday was extremely quiet, you could move around the exhibitor's hall comfortably all day. I'm not sure why this was the case, but it was interesting.

Like I said, I didn't get to see much more of the convention, so I will move on to why you're here: Photos!
