Cosplay Video Shooting by Underworld Runners Productions

Last Saturday, me and around 20 other cosplayers gathered at Lake Garden (Taman Tasik Perdana) to shoot a video for Underworld Runners Productions. The video is basically a short action film about two magician guys sitting at a park when they suddenly decided to play a game of ACG characters fighting against each other. The characters come to life in the real world and battle until the last one is defeated.

At 10am, me, Nat and Amiera headed to KL Sentral to pick up Kat (Afina). We then took a taxi to the destination but unfortunately the taxi driver kicked us out at the bird park instead. The guy was mean, he just told us to "get out". So we had to wait for the Director to pick us up and we walked a long way to the designated meet up point.

By the time we met up with everyone it was already 11am. I got to see Afiqah again! I went as an OC (Original Character).


After everyone introduced themselves they all went to change into costume.


Here's Afiqah, Nat and Amiera. Amiera was there to support us. Here's me and the directors of URP.


The guy with the military wear is Kazumi who was cosplaying as Ghost.


I randomly said that he looked like the guy behind the McDonald's Drive-Thru counter and it turns out I was right. Since then I called him McDonald's. In the video I end up killing him too. I also met Christopher who was cosplaying as Hibari. He will be my opponent team's "leader".



Here's Misschan and Momo Rex as Yuna White Mage and Predator.


Turns out Predator was also this guy from Comic Fiesta Day 1.


What a small world we live in! I also met Rin. She is so cool! She will be my teammate as well.



A while later Yuki arrived and I did his makeup. Yuki is a pure crossplayer but he's straight.



Here's Kii-chan, also an OC. She is such a nice person and also Yuki's friend.


Also met Reira who was Poison Ivy. I really love her cosplay.



Yuki reminds me of Mana-sama because they both avoid speaking when in crossdressing mode. A while later I met a wonderful photographer Forat who was there by coincidence and started having photograph sessions.


Here's Yuki pointing a gun at him. He is such an entertaining person.


Someone also snuck a shot a me while I was posing for the camera.



I also met Raika, a crossplayer who came as an OC as well. It was so nice to finally meet him. We also spotted each other in the LRT.


While me and Raika were chatting I decided to take a behind the scenes picture of the little photoshoot.



Also met Pang Di Jun who was Ichigo from Bleach and Eugene who was Tobi from Naruto. Here's me and Timothy (Keisuke), also an OC getting photobombed by troll face Yuki during our photoshoot.


Here's a picture edited by Keisuke.


Love my crazy expression. I think that it's really funny.


Then it was time for me and my team to shoot.


While they were shooting the last scene, all of us decided to sit down and chat. The guy in normal clothing is the main actor for the video and the blue cat creature is Kat as Nepeta.

After I finished shooting it was 6pm and Nat had to go home. So me, Nat, Amiera and Kat had to leave. It was sad that we could not stay for the last scene. Everyone looked like they were having so much fun!


I did not mention everyone as I did not catch their names or I did not talk to them. Nevertheless I already miss the new friends that I have made at this video shooting session.

After I got home I went out again to Kepong for dinner. When the day was over I was so tired.



So I decided to treat myself to a face mask.


And I spent the rest of the night editing the pictures that I took, adding everyone I met that day and chatting with them as well.


Le tired looking me in the middle of the night. Here are the nails I did for this event. Inspired by cherry blossoms.


I just realized that these nails are so Chinese New Year-esque. I guess I should have saved them for then but I guess now I know how to do my nails for CNY. Also, here are some pictures taken by Forat Shot. His photography is simply breathtakingly divine.











I simply adore this shot, it so cool.



And also this shot of Ichigo is marvelous.


This one if also fantastic.


Here's Angel. She was there to support the shooting. She is so adorable and shy.


I also adore this picture of Kii-chan. She is so awesome.


Also for some moe-ness. Here are some GL shots.



I really had so much fun that day. I hope to go for another one of these events again. Here is a little preview of the video.


There will be more pictures coming up from Forat Shot soon. If any of you want to book him please click his name and his number will be on his cover photo.
