This set of Guizhong convention photos was taken on Day 2 of BW. The clothing design is actually quite exquisite; the outer white surplice plus water sleeves, though looking ethereal, actually has a certain sense of weight when worn, requiring extra care while walking to avoid stepping on the skirt hem. The starry-sky-fabric mini dress underneath gives off a subtle shimmer under the exhibition hall lights, feeling of very good texture, and this patchwork design has a very nice effect in modifying body proportions during photos, with the cinched waist making the overall figure look slimmer. The huge prop bell in hand is the centerpiece of the entire equipment, large in volume and quite heavy. When holding it for poses, to avoid looking stiff, I had to keep adjusting my wrist angle and pay attention to relaxing my shoulders. When taking standing photos, tossing up the two long white water sleeves or letting them drape naturally, combined with the bell's position, can capture that feeling of spell-casting or descending. Because the skirt hem is relatively short, attention must be paid to showcasing leg lines during standing shots; slightly turning sideways or crossing legs can make proportions look better, a little trick especially practical for showing leg lines at a convention site.

Coming to the set of photos taken while sitting, to match that sacred and ethereal atmosphere, I simply went barefoot and sat cross-legged on a white plush cushion, with my feet naturally tucked behind me. With eyes closed and holding the bell, it felt like actually performing some kind of ritual. Post-processing added blue ring-shaped light bands and glowing butterfly special effects to that set of photos, while on site I was actually just sitting there alone, acting entirely by imagination, which felt quite marvelous, all while controlling my expression not to break character.

Being at the convention site was actually quite tiring, and the temperature in the hall wasn't low either, so walking around in this outfit really tested physical stamina, especially to keep the costume smooth, not even daring to fully relax during breaks. Huge thanks to photography teachers Hehuan, Misket, and Pangbai; everyone's candid angles were exceptionally great, recording the serene yet slightly sacred state I wanted. The pairing of the large bell and the starry sky skirt is truly eye-catching, and the flowing feel of the water sleeves adds major points to the frame. For these convention photos to reach this level of completion, it feels like all the previous hard work was worth it. There are still many details of the character worth pondering, such as the blue contact lenses in the eye makeup and the matching of hair accessories, hoping to restore the character's charm as much as possible. Running around the convention is indeed tiring, but seeing the final photos brings a strong sense of achievement, and this experience has also given me more ideas about action design and expression control for future shoots.
