Apa dan Siapa Di Balik COSPLAY: The Series



Kapanlagi.com - COSPLAY: The Series (CTS) ini rencananya akan tayang di YouTube pada tanggal 20 April 2011 dan dapat diakses secara gratis dari seluruh dunia di website mereka. Sebagai sebuah komedi, serial ini menceritakan sebuah klub ekskul cosplay SMA yang ujung-ujungnya terlibat dalam konflik global antara cosplayer super dari pihak baik dan jahat. Plot yang sengaja dibuat berlebihan dan tidak masuk akal ini didukung dengan segenap karakter yang tidak kalah gilanya, yang seluruhnya dibangun dengan menggambarkan stereotipe otaku secara ekstrim dan memanfaatkan beragam klise anime. Memang, para pembuat serial ini sengaja mengemas komedi ini sebagai karya yang lebay, untuk menambah nilai jual kelucuannya.

Serial yang terdiri dari 9 episode berdurasi 3-7 menit ini telah mendapat perhatian dari The Japan Foundation Indonesia, serta berbagai organisasi seni / budaya lainnya. Selagi serial berlangsung di YouTube dari bulan April hingga Juni mendatang, para kru dan pemain akan berkeliling ke beberapa kota untuk screening serta diskusi film dan budaya, terkadang dilengkapi dengan live cosplay performance dan pembagian hadiah bonus lainnya. Untuk lebih jelasnya, para pemirsa dapat masuk ke halaman Facebook mereka (www.facebook.com/cosplaytheseries) untuk memeriksa jadwal tampil di berbagai event yang akan selalu di-update.

Dari segi gambar, serial karya sinematografer Fadli Rozi ini cukup unik dalam memanfaatkan frame diam dan besar. Memang, Fadli banyak terpengaruh latar belakangnya sebagai fotografer landscape, namun Bonni Rambatan sengaja mempertahankan ciri khas tersebut. “Frame diam membuat film ini lebih mirip anime dari segi pencitraan, dan hal tersebut sangat membantu branding kami,” ujar penulis dan sutradara CTS yang juga merupakan pengamat budaya dan media itu. “Selain itu, bahasa gambar dalam web berbeda dengan layar lebar atau televisi, kita harus memikirkan gambar yang berada di antara sekian banyak informasi lain dalam sebuah halaman web, bukan sekedar satu layar penuh saja. Gaya ini merupakan eksperimen, dan sejauh ini hasilnya cocok.”

Walaupun komedi, serial ini juga agaknya merupakan komentar mengenai pengaruh budaya pop Jepang di Indonesia. Walau ringan, berbagai isu penting dalam budaya pop disentuh dan disindir di dalamnya, mulai nasionalisme dan pengaruh Jepang, Hak Kekayaan Intelektual, konflik dengan keluarga, dan isu-isu lainnya.

“Film ini saya buat untuk memamerkan talenta muda Indonesia pada dunia, namun sekaligus juga mengangkat isu-isu penting dalam budaya kontemporer Indonesia dengan cara yang ringan dan menyegarkan. Saya cukup yakin bahwa sebuah serial cosplay akan dapat melakukan hal itu dan membawa nama Indonesia pada dunia,” kata Bonni. “Karya anak bangsa harus terus diperjuangkan, namun dengan mengakrabi budaya asing dan bukan memusuhinya.” (kpl/nat)

COSPLAY: The Series, Cosplay Rasa Indonesia!



Kapanlagi.com - Saat orang-orang sekedar mengeluh akan kualitas sinetron Indonesia yang tidak kunjung membaik, sekelompok anak muda dari Malang dan Bandung yang tergabung dalam inisiatif Q-Cosushinkai Project memutuskan untuk bangkit dan mulai membuat hiburan alternatif, sebuah serial web. Murni independen dengan dana sendiri, serial komedi berjudul COSPLAY: The Series (CTS) ini rencananya akan tayang di YouTube pada tanggal 20 April 2011 dan dapat diakses secara gratis dari seluruh dunia di website mereka.

Konsepnya sederhana, kalau GLEE merupakan komedi musikal, CTS adalah komedi cosplay (costume role-play), performance yang ditampilkan akan merupakan performance cosplay, bukan menyanyi. Digarap oleh sekelompok cosplayer dan penggemar budaya Jepang, serial original dwi-bahasa ini telah dilirik oleh berbagai belahan dunia dan mendapatkan fanbase di lebih dari 20 negara, serta beragam pujian dari pembuat film dan pengamat cosplay dari Amerika, Eropa, dan Hong Kong baik dari segi ide maupun gambar. Statistika ribuan views di YouTube dalam waktu singkat turut berkata bahwa serial ini cukup disukai, dan banyak komentar fans yang mengatakan betapa mereka tidak sabar melihatnya.

Suu Cosplaying Nymph form Sora no Otoshimono in Santa Outfit


Cosplay Character: Nymph
Model: Suu
Character Origin: Sora no Otoshimono

Nymph is an "Electronic Warfare Angeloid, Type Beta" (電子戦用エンジェロイドタイプβ(ベータ)?) who mysteriously appears in Tomoki's house. She is condescending towards humans, whom she refers to as "bugs"; this is no doubt a result of her former master's constant belittling of humans or as he calls them, "Downers". After she spends time with them, she realizes the error of her ways and starts to treat them as equals. She weighs 29 kilograms (63.8 pounds), stands at 139 centimeters (54.6 inches or 4 feet 6 inches), and her wing type is listed as "Not Variable" and "Stealth".[13] Because of this, Nymph can completely conceal her wings unlike Ikaros, who can only retract her wings to a certain point. She is originally sent to return Ikaros to Synapse. However, because she is less powerful than Ikaros, she is unable to do so. Her master later implanted a bomb within her collar that will explode after the green bars on it disappear, which was later disabled from the teamwork of Tomoki and friends. She soon develops feelings for Tomoki (abeit in a tsundere fashion), and later confesses to him. After the Gamma Angeloids attempt to kill her, she betrays Synapse and assists Tomoki, and moves into his home. Her wings were torn off by the Gamma Angeloids, but were regrown when she accepts Tomoki as her new master. However, in her delight at having her wings regrown, she forgot about the Imprinting process and finds it extremely difficult to broach the subject to Tomoki; by her own admission, it is not a difficult task, but she feels embarrassed enough to eventually back out of asking. Eventually, Nymph asks Tomoki to Imprint with her, but he refuses, saying that he wanted her to live freely. She is named and modeled after the nature spirits of Greek myth.
