S2 E8 The Cosplay Crunch W/ Bindi Smalls

The cosplay Master Class is IN SESSION! In this episode of the Cosplay Crunch podcast, we get the privilege of chatting with Bindi Smalls, where we get the background on her journey into cosplay, the evolution of her cosplay skills, and the impact of 3D printing on her creations and her life. We break down the Colorado convention scene, various 3D printing techniques and software, and geek out over innovation in the cosplay creator space. We go off about various printer brands (good and bad), and challenges faced in the 3D printing landscape. We also touch on the reality of working with brands, creating transformative costumes, and the balance between personal projects and professional commitments. Of course we HAVE to talk about the critically acclaimed MMO Final Fantasy XIV, and the TwitchCon 2024 experience. Stay until the end where we discuss streaming and content creation, as well as the importance of personal growth and staying true to one's passion in cosplay.
