Brief statement:
"When you are cosplaying, you are not just wearing the costume, you must also be in character at all time. Portraying the personality of the character you cosplay is crucial, it contribute greatly on how you bring out the character, which make your cosplays top of the class, apart from the craftsmanship of your costume."
Freeman quoted.
Freeman started cosplaying in January 2008, was well-received by the public & gained media attention, had also claimed number of awards during his active period. He was soon scouted & later became a professional cosplay talent for hire. People asked why he chose to go professional, he answered with a smile :)
"If you can get paid for doing what you are passionate about, why not?".
Freeman is now managing cosplay talents under his wings & commissioning new costumes & props for the company. He enjoys watching anime, singing anisongs in his free time while shooting landscape photograph & documenting events when he's on an adventure.

Danny Choo - Good Smile Racing version ;-)
Featured on magazines & newspapers, but lost track after awhile.
Some remaining tokens from cosplay competitions that I still managed to find.
so you are 10 y/o
LOL! Maybe I should just take out the age ^^
I didn't know you did that much of cosplay before, freeman! ^^;
There are more in the wardrobe, I just couldn't wear it all for photoshoot in 1 day.
I had filtered a lot of armored characters since people can't tell it was really me who in it ^^;
I don't think the issue with masks was whether it's really you or not, Danny said it was a licensing issue.
You've done some great cosplay! Nice work.
you finally posted .. wow u actually cosplayed at Kato and the Green Hornet?! I used to watch those! LOL .. i remembered when Bruce Lee auditioned and scared the shit out of the actor with his Jeet Kune Do!
Nothing beats the old school crime fighting vigilante ;-)
I didn't know you managed cosplayers >.>, the life of a business trooper must be a busy one.
Nice cosplay..I like the Green Hornet outfit...simple & stylish.
Most of the characters I chose to cosplay are 90% masked characters, mainly because it's very difficult to pull out the exact facial looks from the fictional character, thus I sticking to the masked characters & perfecting it from there.
NOTE:
Should above photo does not qualified for entry by any means, please feel free to exclude it ;-)

I was about to ask for DC cosplay when I scrolled down onto the last couple of piccies... ^^;

Getting old now, should photoshop my leg to this height, LOL!
During SHELL Oil commercial filming.
It's raining 6000 bullets per minute. (Actually the rotor I used was only 400rpm.)
Hired to transport & secure the first copy of Red Alert 3 game DVD.
Pillow effect turns out good.
I was first a Clone Trooper before a Stormtrooper.
GO WISEFEEEMAN !!!!
The Hellboy Cosplay really creeps me out a bit ^^;;
A dead ringer of Danny! Now, infiltrate his offices, steal all his figures and distribute them among us DC fans!!! (^o^)
Seriously though, those cosplays are so epic.

"OTACOOL 2: Worldwide Cosplayers" will surely give a global shock to the world of cosplays.

Green Hornet look almost just like Inspector Gadjet-- to me ^__^
Good photos!
Alright, it's great to see you have applied for Otacool 2 Freeman.
Thanks for your support ;-)
Nice!
And where dod you get those glasses with the two prongs on the side - the red ones?
Oh, you have great fashion taste ^o^b
It's a french designer eyewear named "Parasite".
It's a very cool & sophisticated looking glasses, but not suitable for sporty use. It need a bit of getting used to this new frame concept as it doesn't put the stress on your ears but "clamping" on the side of your face.

Oh thanks ;-)
