Decoding Cosplay with Ria & Mes

In this episode of Blowing Cartridges, hosts Zach and Brendan, complete neophytes when it comes to all things cosplay, invite Ria and Mes, two experienced cosplayers, to explore the world of cosplay, which has increasingly become a vital part of not only gaming culture, but broader entertainment culture, establishing itself as the outward face of the majority of pop culture and gaming conventions.

 

The discussion spans various aspects of cosplaying, including how they started in the hobby, competitive scene, favorite memories, and upcoming projects. Mes and Ria offer valuable insights into not only the challenges of crafting costumes bringing characters to life, but also the broader aspects of what makes cosplaying appealing to those fully immersed in the hobby, as well as some tips for those who may be looking to get started cosplaying.
