Last weekend there was another fantasy/cosplay event in the city of Genk.
Geek Village was brand new, first time it was organized. and I must say it was quite the succes.
Okay there were some points they could work on, but it is a learning curve.
Star Wars was again very well represented. I was impressed by the quality of the suits.
Had a small talk with them. It was the 501st regiment that was on post to promote Star Wars. They are a group that is worldwide and has a lot of members.
Furries are becoming my favourites. The costumes are great and they interact with childern so good. Very nice to see.
Also learned a bit of the rules for photographing on an event like this.
Only take the photo after consent, respect other photographers.
These cosplayers are there for there fun not for ours, that has to be respected. No is no.
Cosplay/ fantasy seems to be a big deal in and around your areas...why is that? What created this love? Do you know?
ReplyDeleteCreating your fantasy. Just belong, many of these people fall outside the normal norm, if there is one. Before they were called geeks, these day they are popular even superstars on social media. All the superhero movies and fantasy movies have got a great following. We evolved that community got more respected and all of us have a secret fantasy. Even you my Queen.
