Are we allowed to share our own cosplays? If so I'd like to show off some of my costumes.

Yes, of course you can.

Cosplay Melee on SyFy

Think it'll suck?

Snowglobe of Doom posted:

SyFy already did a full 'reality TV' series on cosplay before:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9kyaT6XkQY

.... which wasn't great. Their movie costume special effects show Face Off is much more successful and it looks like Cosplay Melee is based pretty closely on that format so hopefully it'll work better.

Are the costumes in Cosplay Melee actually based on anything or are they new creations? I didn't recognise anything in the trailer.

Oh god, I remember hero's of cosplay. I could not stand the forced drama. I knew that show wouldn't make it past season one.

Face off I still watch and really enjoy it. This season, with the previous artists on, has been a entertaining watch. Despite Glen Hentrick being a fat blob of a judge. Ve and Neville make up for him in a big way.

As for the cosplays. Yah it will probably all be new creations, unless they get a license for a specific character. Main stream television and copyrighted characters would be no bueno for SyFy. And let's be honest, anyone who has seen a SyFy original movie knows this station doesn't have the coin for anything mainstream.

For the people from the last thread. The Supreme Court rendered its verdict on the cheerleading uniforms.

And if I am reading this correctly, the court didn't even want to loving touch the question of "What makes a cheerleader", they simply rendered a verdict on the design copyrights involved with production of clothing.

If I understand this correctly, you're safe to reproduce a cosplay of character, if and only if, you use design factors of your own. If you use even one already copyrighted item, the moment you attach it to the cosplay, it satisfies the test of copyright design.

In much easier to digest terms. If you take a polo shirt and sew a alligator, of your own design on it, you're fine. If you actually get an izod logo , which is a perfectly copyrighted design, and attach it to a polo, you're hosed.

The language that was used;

quote:

Even if respondents ultimately succeed in estab-
lishing a valid copyright in the surface decorations at
issue here, respondents have no right to prohibit any
person from manufacturing a cheerleading uniform of
identical shape, cut, and dimensions to the ones on which
the decorations in this case appear. They may prohibit
only the reproduction of the surface designs in any tangi-
ble medium of expression—a uniform or otherwise.

So grats Cosplayers! You actually have the right to continue to reproduce the work we all love. :)




VVV I also enjoyed it.

It totally did have a 2nd season though, it was still stupid but they dialed back the fake drama a lottt. I hate watched the gently caress out of Heroes of Cosplay.

I didn't watch the first episode yet but Cosplay Melee looks way better, I have at least 3-4 friends who are competing on it. I myself am far too slow for speed challenges on TV haha.

Oh god, it did? :barf:

You'll like Cosplay Melee, it's all the fun, none of the drama. This version of the show understands they are dealing with pure creatives. A demographic that, folks let's be honest, can have a rather bad reaction to harsh criticism.

I'm glad they did their due diligence and are giving their audience what they desire.

So here's your reminder:

Oh hell. So you are saying, unless one of us decides to go against the first rule of the cosplay thread, snatch duster is not allowed to make a "Snatch duster" type post?

In effect, this thread is off limits to the snatch duster, unless we invite him/her in, by being like him/her.
