Cosplay

How is waking up early to put on an elaborate costume you spent weeks making, walking a long way to a convention center, and standing around in the cold waiting to take pictures a form of play? Welcome to the world of Cosplay. I interview at least five veteran cosplayers about how they got into this form of play, what it takes to be a cosplayer, and what they get out of it year after year. I even get dressed up too for this episode shot on location at Wondercon 2024!

A big thanks to all the cosplayers for sharing their love of creativity and costuming. You see more of their cosplays on their instagrams:
