I completed editing and uploading our first video collaboration. Mixed Visuals and I worked together to interview 13 people at Anime World Chicago.
EDIT: I eventually put a bunch of cosplay and convention videos into one and moved it to my cosplay/crafting website:
The interview video consists of mostly cosplayers who made their own costumes as well as one popular Midwest photographer and a person who makes his own costumes and does a large amount of commissioned work.
The interview contents (in order, my best guess on what they said for attribution):
I'm turning most of these into text instead of links because I don't know if they still work and don't know if they are owned by the original people in the case of domains. Visit them at your own risk!

Overall, doing interviews at conventions is a fun and rewarding experience. I'm able to talk with and learn about the people I photograph, which adds another layer to the overall convention experience. While it took a lot of internal motivation to get the ball rolling, I eventually overcame that and got into the swing of things pretty quickly. There is always room for improvement, but I think the video turned out pretty nice. I hope you enjoy it!
