not always the case. Some-
thing like this can delayed
me a lot.
What do you prefer? Shooting
photos or creating videos?
I prefer photoshooting. I
have nothing against the
videos but I really like that
you can edit the photos vari-
ously – put some effects on
it, adjust the lights, satura-
tion and as a result you get
amazingly looking photo,
which looks almost like a
screen from a game.
What places do you search
for your photoshoots?
I am trying to find a sur-
rounding that would match
the cosplayed character per-
fectly. So far, I have taken
photos in a waterfall, on a
meadow, in a manor house,
in front of a church, in ru-
ins… It all depends on an
environment of a character
I choose. It also depends on
the photographer, if he is
up to it and if a surrounding
I need is somewhere in the
neighbourhood.
Some favourite Anime/
Manga, games, movies, tv
shows…?
My favourite anime ever (for
12 years) is Naruto, which
I still watch. My favourite
manga is Rurouni Kenshin,
but I haven’t read it for a
while. A favourite game – ac-
tually the only game I have
in my computer nowadays is
LOL. And my favourite movie
and tv show? LOTR, Game of
Thrones, The Walking Dead.
Descbribe me your most
favourite cosplay that you
made.
It is hard to choose one from
my best cosplays. Despite
Morgana being my master-
piece, my most favourite co-
splay is Chanter (AION). It is
the most complicated one I
have ever done, considering
the sewing work. It is very
comfortable, while wearing
I can easily move and it is
the only cosplay when I can
have blonde hair, plus I have
a shining staff. This cosplay
won a third place in a com-
petition. When I look back on
this project, I am glad I made
it and I feel satisfied.
What do you say on the co-
splay scene in Slovaia and
Czech Republic?
Originally I thought we were
very behind in cosplaying,
but then I saw some comic-
cons abroad. It is hard to
say – we are not the best,
nor the worst – something in
the middle. Of course, I can‘ t
compare us to american co-
splay scene (at least most of
us), because they have dif-
ferent and sometimes better
