    A huge thanks to everyone who was so generous and nice to us at DragonCon. A lot of our crew were feeling rough due to a big film shoot right before D-Con, but you all helped make the weekend an interesting enjoyable odyssey for us. There will be more videos to come!
    Dragon Con is a massive multi-media fan celebration held every Labor Day Weekend in Atlanta, Georgia US. dragoncon.org

    present is gone. fantasy is apart of reality.
    we take the breaks off.
    we forget all the paint and hurt in life.
    we wanna go somewhere else.
    we're not threatened by people anymore.
    all of our insecurties have evaporated.
    we're in the clouds now.
    we're wide open.
    we're spacemen orbiting the earth.
    and the view looks beautiful from up here man..
    we're desiring from the inobtainable.
    we risk sanity for moments of tempory enlightenment.
    we embrace an overwhelming feeling of love.
    we flow in unison.
    we're together.
    i wish this was real.
    we want a universal level of togetherness where we're comfortable with everyone.
    we're in ryhthm
    part of a movement
    a movement to escape
    we wave goodbye.
    Ultimately. We just wanna be happy.

    Some people describe it as a bunch of grown ups dressing up in costumes. I describe it as a bunch of people who like to be express their quirky and wonderful passions. How cool is it that people can so open and passionate about things they love without being judged?! Bloody brilliant!

  • @Tortoise01Swe
    @Tortoise01Swe 9 лет назад +9

    I just love the intro. It´s so true, for just a moment we escape life in exchange for happiness, love, connection and leave the pain and sorrow behind us. For just a moment we forget all the uncertainty, fear and the heavy weight that lies on our shoulders here in life and goes into something totally different. We leave ourselves behind and become someone else, but at the same time we become ourselves when we leave all the fear and uncertainty behind and can finally be free for a moment. That just what I love with this universe. Just trolling around having fun with others like there was no tomorrow. Dress up in your favorite costumes and roleplay and laugh with others, making new friends that maybe you will meet once every year. I´m going to an event called "Närcon" here in Sweden and it will be my first cosplay and roleplay ever. Me and my friend are going and I´m so looking forward to this. My family doesn´t understand, they think that we are just carefree and stupid kids playing around in suits. But it´s so much more than that. Just leaving everything behind for a moment. That´s just what I need. Leaving everything behind....yeah....that sounds nice..

    I couldn't ever possibly tell you how many times I've watched this and your 2015 Dragon Con party video. I've been watching CMVs for pretty much every con I can find for the past five years, and yours are two of the best, if not THE best, at summarizing everything that cosplay and conventions are. Every time I watch them, I think "if someone ever asks why I love cons so much, I'm going to show them this." It's SO good. It makes me want to go home and work on my cosplays no matter how many times I've already seen them. Thank you for making them ❤️❤️

This video isn't just good, its not just fun, its a work of art and an inspiration.

    No matter how many times I see this video it makes my day. It makes me so glad to be a cosplayer, to know the feelings these people are showing in the video, and the opening monologue is so relevant to all of us. It makes me want to dance in my cosplay and meet all these people. Most of all, it makes me glad I'm not alone in this hobby, that there's more of us than we think

    It was BDB's 2012 Dragon*Con vid that inspired me to finish my Daft Punk costumes for 2013. To have gotten in the video twice that has defined Dragon*Con for me, meant the world over...going to D*C and turning 21 the same weekend was something I'll never forget! Everytime I watch this video, it brings me back to what was one of the most surreal experiences of my life! Bringing a whole new Daft costume to life for 2014, see you there!
