| Description: | Cosplay is a performance form in which participants build and wear costumes to represent fictional characters. With its origins ranging from Renaissance-era masquerade balls and early science fiction conventions, today cosplay has become a truly global phenomenon. In this course, we will explore the history of cosplay and its cultural variations. Students will also research and design cosplay characters, and then adapt and make their garments by learning the basics of hand sewing, machine sewing, and crafting. The knowledge and skills in this class have a range of potential applications: from studio art and technical theater to fashion design and cultural history. |
