“I LIKED THE COMMUNITY<br />

THAT I MET IN THE ZOOM<br />

MEETING. NEW FRIENDS,<br />

NEW COSPLAYERS, THAT<br />

WAS FUN”<br />

Here to give their views are:<br />

@Snack._.Shack, @Samii_cosplay,<br />

@Bloodragecosplay, @pendingwaifu,<br />

@karmelacosplay, @noonz_alb,<br />

@smolellie, @R9Props, @maanshaker,<br />

@awesomeology, @hesakura,<br />

@Seii.cosplay, @Sumicosplay and an<br />

appearance by @yourbrojackie.<br />

Q. Can you give us a statement on<br />

your experience joining the online<br />

cosplay competition(s)?<br />

- Snack: I joined both online<br />

competitions and honestly it was a<br />

complete thrill to indulge and show off<br />

our skills of crafting and cosplaying<br />

even though we couldn’t go to any<br />

cons like MEFCC, but I had so much<br />

fun and watching others and myself<br />

compete against one another and<br />

show off their talents and surprisingly<br />

win second runner up in the CAMEC<br />

competition.<br />

-Samii: Joining CAMEC and Speedy<br />

Comics online cosplay competition<br />

was really exciting and fun, that made<br />

me think that anime cons and cosplay<br />

competition don’t always have to be<br />

outside, they can also be online as<br />

well. We didn’t just stop because of<br />

covid19, we did everything we love<br />

from the safety of our homes & even<br />

had judges from the world over.<br />

-Bloodrage: CAMEC was my first<br />

experience in online cosplay<br />

competitions (sadly I didn’t have the<br />

time to participate in Speedy Comics)<br />

but CAMEC was a good idea and I<br />

really appreciate it. I know how much<br />

they worked for it, I mean it’s not<br />
