To do list for the upcoming 2 weeks

This is just a quick list of things to do in perpetration for our final hand-in in a few weeks time.

  • Gather real-time cosplay footage: Victoria is currently at a cosplay/anime convention and is gathering live interviews from fellow cosplayers, as well as gathering images and general footage of the convention in full swing.
  • Gather footage of cosplay production: In the upcoming week Victoria and I plan to travel to Leeds to buy fabric for several planned cosplay costumes. Here we plan to gather further footage to use in our mini documentary. Key shots to gather are buying fabric, a pan of the fabric store, and the selection of the materials.
  • Footage of cosplay in production: The third piece of footage we plan on gathering will be of us both creation out cosplay designs. We hope to here include images in the documentary of both our cosplay costumes on and the fictional characters we represent next to it. We also hope to gather a few shots of us on the sewing machines and adding detail to the costumes.
  • Narration: Including live recordings we plan to produce a script to narrate over the top of the finished piece. This includes general introductions to our idea, a breakdown of cosplay, interviews and the fandom.
  • Technicalities: After the above have been completed we will need to look into joining all of our assets together to construct the final piece. We do need more discussion on how this will be presented but the current idea is a kind of fly on the wall episode looking into the whys,hows and whos of cosplaying.
After completing the above tasks we will be able to create the final documentary to an official standard like we originally planned.
