Otakon 2008 Photos

Otakon 2008 - Baltimore, MD
Final Fantasy Four: Otakon 2008 - Baltimore, MD

These kids all fell into poses on their own. They're great models. I posed the "Final Fantasy Four against a blank white wall inside the food pavillion at the Inner Harbor - it ended up looking like seamless paper. Lighting came mostly from a skylight above and in front of the group. A little too much "butterfly" lighting, but all in all not bad.

Hi Steve. I esp like the group photo. Good lighting and interesting subjects. It's really interesting how much people go for the Japanese comics stuff.

Nice shots, Steve.

For the two girls in the group shot, it would have been great to have them pose with arms extended to show off their costumes more. I'm not a big fan of the genre (i've never seen the actual Final Fantasy game), but I happen to like how the character "Yuna" is drawn. Yuna's costume is very elaborate and ornate (the girl on the right). She should be showing it off instead of hiding it behind her arms.

Did you attend the convention?
