Anime Riverside (2022) POV Cosplay + Band Photography

Описание: A half hour vlog of me going about my street photography style shoots, but at an anime convention. No commentary, just on the shoulder cam footage catching some cosplay photos here and band photos there.

Footage from Day 1 (Saturday, June 4th) of Anime Riverside. Fun story, there was a power outage that took out a few blocks, even the hotels nearby and the convention. Or the fire alarm was pulled or something. I can’t quite recall, but everything was back on in a few hours. Not entirely sure how many attendees left and called it a day, but the weather got nice when the sun started to get lower in the day. It was scorching hot, as always, in the afternoon at these cons for some reason. Some ppl weren’t able to access their hotel rooms on account that every door was retrofitted with keyless technology. LOL.

It was a nice surprise for me to come out during a live performance of a tribute band playing emo/punk/rock/pop hits from the 2000s. Songs from Jimmy Eat World, Fall Out Boy, and My Chemical Romance. Mosh pit x Cosplayers, now that’s a photo op I’d love to shoot again!

The tribute band can be found on Instagram, “not_a_phase_emoeraband”

They’ll be performing again at 2023’s Anime Riverside Afterparty!
