S1 E10 The Cosplay Crunch W/ Bree Han

Do you want to be a voice actor? Well, this episode won’t tell you how… BUT we do get into all of the backstage tea on voice acting for one of the largest anime production companies in the world! Host Zavage Cosplay interviews Bree Han about her cosplay journey where we discuss the rise of cosplay music videos,the lasting friendships they've made through conventions, and the dreaded post convention dinner scenario (IYKYK). We take a journey through Bree's experience into voice acting, her experience of landing her first voice acting role for Crunchyroll and the challenges in the industry. We cover LOTS of hot topics including the WeebCon cosplay contest follow up, the Arda Wigs statement and woes, and the controversy surrounding DisabilityComicCon. Join us for a truly packed episode! 

Bree Han is a professional voice actor and cosplayer of 10 years! Her first time cosplaying was her second convention at Oni-con 2013, and since then she’s made the transition to being a voice actor who also cosplays the characters she voices. Prior to cosplaying her own characters, what Bree loved most about cosplay was getting to be someone else for a day and feel confident by acting as another person. While that is still true, now there’s a certain special aspect to getting to cosplay a character that you are also the official voice of (such as Misaki from DMDP or Xiaolan from The Apothecary Diaries for Bree). The convention scene holds a special place in Bree’s heart as it introduced her to her passion of voice acting, and now conventions look a little different for her as a working professional in the field than they did before as a regular attendee.
