EP 19 - Cosplay Togs & All Things Picvetia

Picvetia is one of Switzerland’s most exciting cosplay photography events and in this episode, we go behind the scenes on what it really takes to plan it: applications, selection, locations, logistics, and building a supportive community.


🎙️ In this episode, the Picvetia team shares:

• How Picvetia started and how it’s grown

• What makes a strong application/portfolio (cosplayers + photographers)

• How selection works (quality, variety, skills — not just social following)

• The hidden workload: scouting, pressure, rejections, timelines

• Why locations matter so much — and how to use them creatively

• Tips for beginners: posing, make-up, networking, persistence
