  • A lot of people have been asking me how I do my own photos for cosplay so I thought I would do a quick video to break down my studio setup and take my photos.
    If you want to learn more about making cosplay costumes and armor checkout some of our tutorial books and patterns available here: kinpatsucosplay.com/shop
    For more of my Cosplay progress you can follow me here :

    My Camera is a Nikon D5100
    My wireless controller is a Godox (unfortunately I don't know the model)
    My lights are constant softboxes.

    Godddd I've been dying to something like this. I'm not very great with photographers since I'm so shy so finding a great way to set up a personal photography studio is what I definitely needed.
    Seriously couldn't thank you enough for this video.

      +The Mimartier Thank you so much :) I'm actually going to be doing a kindred cosplay myself soon so i'll be posting lots of progress pictures for that if that helps? I'm planning on cutting my bow out of pine wood with a jigsaw and then sanding the edges with my dremel :)
      And I get my EVA foam from a local company here in South Africa called Sondor :)

    Hey I love your work and follow you on cosplay amino and I saw you did a Panty Anarchy cosplay which is one I'm working on right now and I really really love your makeup for it so I was wondering if you had the time if you could possibly make a tutorial?

    How did you make Jinxs guns?

  • @robertdepaulis5188
    @robertdepaulis5188 Před 7 lety +1

    Make a suggestion for your remote , set your camera on timer on your drive setting then it will give you time to put the remote down and recompose your self.
    Great work by the way :)

    • @KinpatsuCosplay
      @KinpatsuCosplay  Před 7 lety

      Robert De Paulis Thank you for the suggestion! Unfortunately the timer isn't a feasible option for me. :( I have tried in the past. There have been times where my trigger has run out of battery or something during a shoot so I've tried it and unfortunately it's just so much more effort. When taking photos you kinda wanna be able to take 3 or 4 shots of the same pose so you can pick the best one. And get it just right. I often take about 200 photos every shoot and only end up using about 4 or 5. So setting the timer would make the whole process take a lot longer and slower :o the other thing about my camera is that it never remains in timer mode. In order to take a photo with the timer you have to constantly go into the menu and set the timer for each shot, its painstaking stuff 😂
      If I don't want the remote in my photos at all it's easier and quicker for me to take two photos of the same pose with different hands and combine them in post using photoshop :3

      You can also set the timer to 2 seconds and use a sound trigger. Just say "click" or stomp to take a picture. Newer models also allow you to combine that with taking multiple pictures. Of cause if you always have to set the timer it might not be that helpful.
