My plan was to miss out Birmingham comic con 2016 this year but as I realized I would be suffering from con blues after lscc for a while (my next con is mcm comic con may)so I franticly bought a train ticket and headed down.
On the saturday of the con I totally forgot to even enter the convention as I was filming cosplayers quite a bit outside of the con and close to the forest. The variety of epic settings outside of the convention leaves any creative feeling all fuzzy inside.
I did go into the convention on the sunday though. It was ok; the orange tint inside the con did scare many photographers and videographers away though.
Speaking of videographers i really enjoyed seeing some new videographers very actively and passionately filming at brumcon; It put a long lasting smile on my face.
It was an awesome feeling working with some new people and especially when I found at many knew who I was once I handed them my card. It's a good feeling. One cosplayer said they thought I would be an asian guy, lmao.
For this con I was going to use a ballad but realized the fun and adrenaline rush I get from filming cosplayers at conventions doesn't suit mellow and slightly depressing music. I'm more about hype! I think the video game "soulcalibur" played a subconcious part in the epic music i decided to use. I was playing soulcalibur 1 - 5 all over again the weekend before, lol.
I'm incredibly proud of how this cosplay music video came out. Hope you lot enjoy!

From Psy to Popcorn Funk - LSCC 2016
London super comic con 2016; it was an interesting one. It was a lot smaller this time around due to 4 other shows running on the same day. Usually lscc takes over the majority of the excel centre but this time around it was pushed to the side which was something many people didn't expect but in the end it was still fun catching up with friends and having a good laugh.
My plan for this LSCC 2016 was to create a dance video with Psy's song "gentlemen" but due to the lack of space the con goers had this time around and the fact that many people didn't "get" the song as much as "gangnam style" i decided to ditch the idea on the day and make a cosplay showcase which is a lot easier and less stressful to make, lol.
I chose the song for it on the sunday of the convention; I usually pick a song 2 weeks prior to a con so this was a pretty new interesting pressure route for me. I think it ended up aright. What say you?
