Tifa Cosplay Photoshoot

Date: 29 April 2012
Time: 6-7pm
Venue: The Campus
Cosplayer: m@gd@lene
Cosplay Character: Tifa Lockhart
Anime: Final Fantasy VII Advent Children
Cosplay Experience: None
Make-up Artist/Hairstylist: Hallen
Photographer: Hallen & Heukyma

It was a Sunday evening. Just before sunset. I purposely chose a time when I believed no one would be around the campus but there were still some people passing by, unfortunately. One of them was an international student. Not sure from which country though. He was jogging while listening to his ipod when he saw me in Tifa's outfit and slowed down his pace. Then he suddenly burst out "Good job!" at us(me with 2 photographers). OMG. I was really surprised when I heard that. Happily I thanked him and he jogged away with a thumbs-up. Such a sweet guy. xD

After that, without wasting time, I began to look for beautiful spots around the campus and started the photoshoot. Was afraid that the sun will be going down in a bit. Fyi, all pictures were taken using android 5mp phone and samsung galaxy tab so the image quality is just so-so. Hope that I could win a digital cam for National Quiz this time. Won a wireless mouse previously. Winners will be announced around June. Wish me luck. *fingers-crossed*

The photoshoot ended after an hour. Was totally exhausted for posing in front of the cam cos I didn't warm-up beforehand. Especially those martial art poses. Tried my best already. :P

To say the truth, I am not really satisfied with my photos. It's not because of the photography skills but me. My face is just not photogenic enough to be a cosplayer. Kinda down to feel that way though.

Anyway, still thanks a bunch to my buddy for the make-up and everything. Not forgetting Amy who borrowed me her brown eye shadow too. I don't have much make-up stuffs. And to my dear sister, thanks alot for shooting a video of me crapping for 6 minutes non-stop. I bet you had a hard time walking backwards while holding the galaxy tab. Haha.

Hi there Mag,

You've surely put effort on your cosplay, I really liked ur pose on pic #1 and #23, the camera angle in #23 is perfect with that back lighting.. It really shows Tifa's toughness and finesse in martial arts..

All the best in improving your skills as a cosplayer..
