MiyakoCon 2’s COSPLAY CONTEST
will be hosted once more by Hildur Galaxy & Judges To Be Announced.
we will have four “levels”– Kids, Novice-Beginner, Intermediate-Advanced, and Group Cosplay.
Prizes are for First and Second place and will be announced soon!
PLEASE NOTE: SIGN UPS WILL BE ON-SITE, AVAILABLE AT REGISTRATION.
Novice/Beginner: We’re looking for craftsmanship and some personality. Seeing them as their character may be a little more difficult because they might not be comfortable with presenting themselves as the character yet. Unless it is a store bought/commissioned, then we are looking for presentation/personality.
Intermediate/Advanced: These are the ones we’re going to be looking a bit harder at. Looking for fine details, how they present themselves on stage and show off their costume, and overall look of craftsmanship. These should be the people that have made several past costumes.
Group: Crowd favorite, group presentation, and stage presence!
Kids: Mostly judged on crowd favorite, stage presence, and ingenuity as well!
Sweet Improv Dance Challenge! < CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP! >
Hosted by Sweet Maple Panda! Rules and Guidelines: You can enter as a solo or a group.
There will be 5 to 7 categories as time allows. Each contestant/group will dance for 30 seconds in each category. Some examples of categories might be anime theme, popular or emotional. Songs are preselected and played randomly in grouped categories. Sorry but no requests. Contestants must Improv dance to the best of their ability to which ever song is played.
Judging will be first place of differently selected categories, so you do not have to be an expert dancer to win. Amateurs and professionals both encouraged to apply! We will be looking at moves as well as facial expression, attitude and how much enjoyment the contestants are having. Anyone can win! Cosplay is not required but extra points will be given to those in cosplay.
This is a rated PG-13. If your dancing is to adult in nature you will forfeit returning to the stage. You can be “sexy” but not overly suggestive. If in a group, no kissing and no “fan service” allowed. Feel free to contact us for further restrictions.
Please sign up here by February 23rd. Sign up at the convention will be available if space allows.
