Usually an anime/video game convention.
Answer:
The bigger ones are usually sponsored by convention companies, for example ComicCon which sponsors Fanime, Otakon, etc. There are many smaller ones for specific animes or games which are sponsored and organized by the fans themselves, for example Hetalia fans are organizing a north California cosplay event this June.
Not to my knowledge. The only one I know is Nebraskacon.
I would! But I live in Canada... Try posting a facebook event page? That's how GodPa organises cosplay meetups around here~
I believe it has something to do with what they did. Supporters did less tjan Sponsors.
Sponsors are a company or organisation or an individual who pays for an event.
It is basically an interview that describes your cosplay. they have questions that you answer such as , What got you into cosplay? How did you decide on this cosplay? How did you put together this cosplay? Basically a self interview on cosplay.
That is Prince Robot IV from Saga
A sponsors exemption is where the sponsor of the tournament can choose a player (possibly a promising amateur or fan favourite) who would other wise not be exempt to play in that event, and give them a spot in the tournament. The amount of sponsors exemptions is limited per event, and you would only see them in the smaller events, never a major.
