EpitAnima 2007



In de wereld van de cosplay geniet deze conventie een haast legendarische faam. Meer dan in eender welk Japanimationevenement staat de cosplay hier dan ook centraal. Iets waarvoor fans van ver over de Franse landsgrenzen naar Parijs voor reizen zodat ze hun mooiste stukken kunnen showen & het hopelijk goed doen tijdens de 2 dagen durende cosplaywedstrijden.

Algemeen wordt EpitAnime beschouwd als de belangrijkste Anime- Manga - Cosplay - Videogame conventie in Frankrijk (+7000 bezoekers). Bovendien gaan de activiteiten op EpitAnima 24u per dag door. Van vrijdagavond tot zondagavond non-stop!

Aangezien er een behoorlijke delegatie Belgische fans naar deze 15e editie van EpitAnime trekt, besloot Aztek-TV dat dit een reportage meer dan waard zal zijn...

Locatie: vlakbij de Porte d‘Italie in Parijs l‘EPITA (Ecole Pour l‘Informatique et les Technologies Avancées), in 14-16 rue Voltaire, 94270 Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, tout juste aux portes de Paris

Event - Geek Village Genk (2024)

Afbeelding
A heads-up: on November 17th 2024 we'll be hosting a videobooth on Geek Village ( Thor Central, Genk ) in room 12 ( named Trovao ). It will be the 1st time we put the 360° videobooth on a fair.. so it's somewhere between in between scary & exciting. Since it's the 1st time and we have a full room at our disposal, we might set up a small photobooth aswel as a free bonus for our clients. Come visit us! Meanwhile you can look at some videos from #theRed360 on Instagram ( a few ) and on Tiktok ( loads! ) Have some links while you wait for everything to be edited: ▷ All photos can always be found on/downloaded from my Flickr and here ! ▷ A " How to download stills from Flickr " tutorial was posted here . ▷ Some highlights might go to Instagram or even Threads . ▷ The video will go to Clapper & to Tiktok ▷ Buy Red Cathedral a whisky on Ko-Fi ▷ Updates are on THE Facebook . ▷ Give a follow to this young creative foundation: Deep Red Noise vzw/asbl

Collab - Verbeke Foundation cosplay day 2024

Afbeelding
A few weeks ahead of the first cosplay shoot day of 2024 in the Verbeke Foundation I had wisely estimated that I would run into & make pictures of 10% of all cosplayers. That was a gross misestimation.. I think it's closer to 5%. Every edition organizer Geert seems to double the number of participants. I still don't know how he manages, but kudos for gathering somewhere around 240 participants. Let's start with a few links: ▷ All photos can always be found on/downloaded from my Flickr and here ! ▷ A " How to download stills from Flickr " tutorial was posted here . ▷ Some highlights might go to Clapper & to Instagram or even Threads . ▷ Buy Red Cathedral a whisky on Ko-Fi ▷ Updates are on THE Facebook . ▷ Give a follow to this young creative foundation: Deep Red Noise vzw . .

Event - Les fêtes médiévales de Binche (2024)

Afbeelding
Let's be really quick and dirty about this event: ▼ There was was an ice-cold wind, but most of the day it was dry, △ Each time the sun showed itself it was wonderful and we all smiled, △ Got a superb medieval cape that really helped against the wind, △ Great food ( including pancakes! ) and too much mead to taste, △ Überfriendly people ( visitors, reenactors, larpers & vendors.. sorry, I didn't run into anyone of the organisation, n or crew ) △ Excellent location: high upon the ramparts of the old city, △ Parked by accident right behind the corner of the event, △ Free parking, free toilets, and a fountain that will be useful during a future hot edition , △ Music by Skayrish , cannon fire, birds of prey, throwing things ( a bad combination with mead ),.. △ A fun afternoon eventhough it was tiny. . .   Let's provide you a few links: ▷ All photos can always be found on/downloaded from my Flickr and here ! ▷ A " How to download stills from Flickr &

Collab - D'Ursel cosplay day (2024)

Afbeelding
Eventhough many September days in 2024 feel more like November days, on Sunday the 15th it was good to be outside. Outside in the park of castle d'Ursel in Hingene the infamous Geert had gathered yet again a mass of cosplayers & photogs and as always I had hidden my set, this time behind an old wall. No line of sight onto the castle, but perfect for " Cosplayers with natural light " & some " Extreme shoot through ". Why not use the castle as a backdrop, you might ask?  It's a pretty castle, yes. It has one really interesting side, alas it was too crowded to build a set & get a constant, uninterupted view. On a quiet day I'll gladly combine the front of the castle with an epoque gown.. but that Sunday was NOT a quiet day. First a few useful links : ▷ All photos can always be found on/downloaded from my Flickr and here! ▷ A " How to download stills from Flickr " tutorial was posted here . ▷ Some highlights might go to I

Games Day Keulen

Op de laatste Games Day in Frankrijk heeft de reputatie van de Belgische miniaturenschilders een stevige knauw gekregen en dat ondanks de vele prijswinnaars die ons kleine landje reeds heeft voortgebracht (ref de Aztek-TV reportages over de Painting Crusade). De Belgian Dogs of War zijn vastbesloten om deze vernedering te wreken en roept daarom alle Belgische schilders van Games Workshop-miniaturen & alle dioramamakers op om hun mooiste stukken mee te laten strijden voor de Golden Demon tijdens de Games Day op 5 augustus 2007 in het Duitse Keulen. Allen samen voor de vaderlandse eer. Info & inschrijvingen via de Belgian Dogs of War

Event - Comic Con Antwerp 2022

Afbeelding
Some links first and then a few words of wisdom? There will be several sample images in this post as the processing advances. Once finished ALL the pictures can be found here on Flickr . For updates of the progress & next events you can check the Facebook page . Some videoreels will follow on Clapper and Instagram .  Clapper video 1 - The pink lifestyle Clapper video 2 - Live by the Creed . Some thoughts on the event? First of all we only spent a few hours of Saturday afternoon on the fair. It's Maanrock and the combination of a crazy CFX-concert and the Versuz-stage on Friday made SaturDAY a bit shorter than expected. But this fair also coincided with the gigantic Gamescom & the always highly anticipated Viencon. Cosplayers had so much to chose from. Secondly I had said almost 10 years ago that I was tired of indoor anime mega-shopping-cons and had thus stopped visiting the likes of FACTS, MiA,.. until evil friends managed to convince me otherwise.  . So the fair
