What is your motivation to create your club?
My motivation to create this club stems from a deep-rooted passion for the art of cosplay and a genuine fascination with the creativity it inspires within individuals. Cosplay, to me, represents far more than just dressing up as fictional characters; it's a vibrant form of self-expression, a celebration of fandom, and a powerful means of connecting with others who share similar interests and passions. From meticulously crafted costumes and elaborate makeup transformations to stunning photoshoots and immersive character portrayals, each cosplay forms a unique blend of creativity, craftsmanship, and dedication that never fails to impress and inspire me. Regardless of age, background, or experience level, cosplayers share a common language and a shared passion for their favorite characters and stories. Through cosplay, I've had the opportunity to connect with individuals from a diverse range of fandoms and created meaningful friendships based on a mutual love for creativity and also the fandoms. Inspired by my own experiences and fueled by a desire to create a welcoming and inclusive space for cosplayers to come together, share their passion, and support one another, I felt compelled to create this club. For many, cosplay serves as a form of self-discovery, allowing them to explore different areas of their identity, express themselves authentically, and build confidence in their creative abilities. I am driven by a desire to celebrate creativity, create a community, and inspire others to pursue their passions fearlessly. Through this club, I hope to cultivate a vibrant and inclusive community where cosplayers of all backgrounds and skill levels can come together to share their love for cosplay.

What events and activities will you host for your club?
One of the cornerstone events of our club will be themed dress-ups, where members can unleash their imagination and bring their favorite characters to life through intricate costumes and distinct makeup. These dress-ups will not only provide a platform for showcasing craftsmanship and creativity but also serve as a catalyst for self-expression and confidence-building. Whether it's recreating iconic characters from anime, video games, movies, or comics, each dress-up session will be a testament to the limitless potential of cosplay as an art form. In addition to dress-ups, our club will regularly host photoshoots, providing members with the opportunity to capture their stunning cosplay creations in all their glory. These photoshoots will not only serve as a means of documenting our members' hard work and dedication but also as a chance to collaborate with photographers. This will allow photographers to have a grasp at the idea of the cosplay club, allowing more coverage within our club. Our club will ensure that every cosplayer has the chance to shine in front of the camera. Furthermore, our club will organize casual hangouts where members can come together to socialize. These hangouts will provide a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere where newcomers can feel comfortable dipping their toes into the world of cosplay, while seasoned veterans can connect with like-minded individuals and exchange insights and experiences. This can also help provide insight within the community as well, gaining more references and material for those veterans and newcomers to enjoy. Our club will also host themed discussions and workshops covering a wide range of topics related to cosplay and fandom. Our workshops will offer practical skills training in areas such as sewing, prop making, wig styling, and makeup application. Our club will actively participate in conventions, cosplay competitions, and other community events, serving as ambassadors for our passion and spreading joy and inspiration to audiences far and wide. Whether it's showcasing our creations on stage, volunteering as event staff, or organizing group outings to explore convention floors, these external engagements will create an unforgettable experience for our members. This could also help broaden the fandom community.
How would you decorate your club room, as the Club Head?
First, when you walk in there will be a bulletin board for announcements, event schedules, spotlights, and meeting dates. In the main part of the room, there will be an open area for meetings and group activities. This place will have tables and chairs for meetings, costume creation, and socializing. Display shelves and racks will be hung up so there will be captured moments and jokes we make along the way. Posters will also be hung up in these areas to insinuate inspiration. There will be a table full of supplies for creation such as sewing machines, hot glue guns, and other tools. This place will also have storage bins and drawers for the organization via each member. There will be a place dedicated to photoshoots so we can hang the moments up and use them for later events. There will either be a whiteboard or projector so we can look at ideas and create new costumes. Many of the meetings will take place here so there will need to be a refreshment area for the members. Small tables and a minifridge will be in this area, along with some inspired drinks that go with that meeting theme or idea. For example, anime inspired cupcakes. If possible, LED lights will be around the room, creating a fun atmosphere within the room.
