Interview With a Cosplayer Featuring Shaucatcosplay
Welcome back to another awesome episode of interview with a cosplayer. For today's episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing @shaucatcosplay. She is an amazing cosplayer with several years of cosplay under her belt based out of Atlanta Georgia. As a special treat, we are not only doing the interview but also discussing our recent photoshoot. The location and details regarding the shoot will all be discussed in the interview so make sure to give it a listen. And without further ado, let's dive into another awesome interview with a cosplayer.
@Shaucatcospla got into cosplay back in high school so around 2007 to 2008. She originally cosplayed as Sakura from Naruto. This was the beginning of a very extensive cosplay career that is growing stronger by the day. Unfortunately, no images exist of this cosplay but I'm sure it pales in comparison to what her cosplay creations consist of today. Check her through back Thursdays to see her cosplay origin stories.
One of her favorite cosplays was from Saiyuki. The merciful goddess is the character she cosplayed as and she decided to construct a large necklace for this series. I really can't describe it so definitely check it out online. This was actually the first prop she ever constructed so just go ahead and dive in sometimes. I'm sure your imagination and reference pictures will lead the way. Another amazing cosplay she did was Morrigan from dark stalkers. This character is extremely iconic and has been featured in several games. Specifically, the puzzle fighter version inspired @shaucatcosplay and she based her Morrigan off of this version.
Now onto the shoot. I really donβt want to give to much away so listen to the podcast but this shoot consisted of two D&D characters. They were Shiere and Desdemona. These characters mean a lot to @shaucatcosplay because she has been using them for a while and feels she resonates with these characters. Shiere is a druid so of course, we used a shoot location that was more natural. She chose the ball gown version of this character as her next dungeons and dragons campaign involves them going to a ball.
The second character is not as morally righteous. She is basically the polar opposite of Shiere. Desdemona is ok with things the way they are as long as they do not harm the natural order of things. The character is actually good but based on her moral decisions she may be viewed as evil. To bett
