What should I do when I'm in a group?

1. Make sure everyone is happy.
If you all want to do a Sailor Moon group and Ms. Gundam isn't down with it, then don't force it. Either compromise, or do something else.Don't forget that she'll be seen in this costume for over 10 hours,she'll be paying for it, she'll be acting in it. And if Ms. Gundam doesn't want to be Sailor Pluto, she sure as hell isn't going to act that way.


2. Keep the costumes consistent.
If you're all doing an Ouran Host Club cosplay and five of you have the same costume, but your best friend has his uniform made out of a different material, it's noticeable! The same goes with wigs,accessories, weapons, and so forth. And make sure everyone is posing right. If you want your whole Naruto group to pose the same, make sure everyone is aware of that, and everyone knows their place and pose in the group. Be organized and stay communicated.


3. Make sure everyone feels noticed.
Yes, yes, we get it. Roy and Hughes are the main guys in FMA uniform cosplay. But if John McRandomOfficer has an awesome uniform he made from scratch, let him show it off! Don't shove anyone in the back because you or another are in high demand. Have fun with everyone.
