Cosplayers
The cosplayers were much better at CF09 than CF08 from what i remember but it feels like there were too many vocaloid cosplayers and i remember one guy who really stand out because of the height of his costume which was No Face from Spirited Away
No Face from Spirited Away & me
The treatment for cosplayers were not too bad by the committee & public in general except some ppl are so rude in the sense that they do not ask before they take pictures.Me and my ex were just holding hands (my ex was cosplaying at that time,i wasn't) and those people just keep flipping out their cellphones and digi cams and try to take pics of me and my ex (trust me,i don't even know why) we literally scolded and shoved hands in front of the cams because it was so rude!!! I think better security over things like these would be needed for CF this year as i even heard rumours about some cosplayers got upskirt shots.
Lighting & photography
Much much better than CF08 but i still needed to use my 50mm portrait lens with my Akago (Canon EOS 450D) as it was better for low light conditions.It helps that this time there were better spacing for cosplayers to pose and for photographers to have enough space to composite their shots
Booths
I didn't manage to walk around the booths too much but is it just me or does things seem a bit pricey?According to my sources,certain things which were sold at CF09 were the same from GACC 09 but the price was higher?I guess booth owners have to compensate for rent somehow.
Changing Room
I was cosplaying on day 2.There was barely a place for us to get ready.Most people got ready in the bathrooms which wasn't convenient for my ex and my guy friend to help me out (one was helping me with my costume,the other with my wig) so i literally got ready next to the escalator(it kinda helped that i forgot to wear my contact lenses so i can't even recognize ppl who stared at me)
Air conditioning
It was pretty pretty cold to me but for people who were cosplaying in thicker costumes,i guess it helped them but i know i was freezing like mad!!!
Committee & volunteers
They were very helpful generally but i think on first aid matters,it could have been improved.i sprained my ankle at the end of day 2 and i couldn't even move anywhere.none of my friends knew who to look for first aid matters.i had to call up dustyhawk to ask him to help me get first aid which i'm grateful.
All in all,i give the whole event a 6/10.Could be much better :)
