COSMIX LA
Sat, Oct 17, 10:00 PM**COSMIX LA** is three hours in four professional photo studios with a room full of cosplayers, photographers, and creatives all there to create together. A rare chance to shoot your character in studios actually designed for it — different backdrops, different lighting setups, different aesthetics — and walk away with awesome content. Bring your costume, your camera, or both. Connect with local photographers eager to capture your character at its best. Collaborate with cosplayers you haven't met yet. Move freely between four studios for the full three hours and use the time however works for you. The content, the community, and the networking are all part of the same afternoon. COSMIX LA is organized in partnership with **IRIS Interactive**, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with deep roots in the cosplay community and extensive experience producing cosplay events across SoCal. Their mission is simple: create affordable creative events that bring cosplayers together to create, connect, and grow their craft. This photo mixer is part of that mission. Their team will be on the ground throughout the day, and they are bringing an established cosplay community with them — expect a full room of creatives.
