 Cosplay

Danielle and Joe Tymczyszyn (Pronounced “Tim-chisen”), Americans living in Beijing, recently returned from a fascinating visit to Myanmar, a country opening up to international tourism.
Joe is a photographer and in the capital, Yangon, was delighted to discover Cosplay performances, as he continues to explain. This is a form of science fiction fantasies where young people dress up in costumes from the stories. Today it also takes in much from the comic book world. In Beijing they are held regularly at the National Convention1 Centre next to the Olympic Green. They can attract several thousand people dressing2 up.
Track one
In Myanmar when I walked on the streets I could walk up to anybody and say “I would like to take your picture’
They could understand English and 90% of the people would say “Yes”
That is a higher percentage than almost anywhere else in the world
It was a kind of heaven for photography
You were taking a lot of photographs of people dressed up in costumes – Cosplay
They had a Cosplay costume show in Myanmar
About 150 young people dressed up in costumes
That is very new and abnormal3 there
It was very similar to what they have in Beijing for Cosplay,
Except in Beijing there may be 2/3000 people in costumes at a show in the National Convention Centre
Whereas4 there, maybe 150 in a small hotel
It was you who introduced me to Cosplay – I had never heard of it before
I hadn’t either but a friend told me I would have fun as a photographer if I went to a Cosplay sow
And she told me where there was one in Beijing and the website where you can see all the Cosplay shows in China
Really fun because there, 100% of the people I ask if I can take their picture say “Yes”
Because they do not dress up in a costume to not be noticed and not be photographed
In the Beijing one you would be swarmed5 with other photographers
Actually it is not so bad – there aren’t that many photographers
There are a lot of people posing6
So except for the top 5% of the finest costumes the other 95% probably do not have a photographer around them
Questions
1. Why was Myanmar a ‘heaven for photography”?
2. Why does Joe go to Cosplay shows?
3. Where is Cosplay held in Beijing?
4. Why are people at Cosplay happy to be photographed?
5. What percentage of participants dress up in really fancy7 costumes?
