PRODUCT COPYRIGHT
I'm trying to find out about the copyright for the character I want to make an accessory product for. Long story short, with a little effort, I got a new insight on Quora regarding the copyright of this Ghibli Studio.
June E-commerce Order | Howl Pendragon Cosplay Accessories |
Copyright on Studio Ghibli Series |
From reading the writings shared on Quora, there are several regulations regarding the use of copyright (characters, scecece from movies) for web/assignments and other things. From this, I can conclude that Studio Ghibli did not give permission to use characters, film scenes and so on. From here I felt like I was doing the wrong thing by putting Howl's face in this product photo, because I didn't get permission to use it.
To be honest, the safest thing is to make accessories with our own original ideas. Moreover, on this time I got the idea of making accessories from the Studio Ghibli because I saw the cosplayers I followed at SNS doing beautiful photoshoots in a country in Europe. Hence, I was inspired by them, that's what caused me to make this set of accessories (necklaces and earrings).
COSPLAY ACCESSORIES : EARRINGS & NECKLACE
This June, I made two cosplay accessories that can be used for the cosplay activities of the Character Howl Pendragon from Studio Ghibli's Howl's Moving Castle series. I made the antiing and necklace that I made similarly to the design from the anime.
For earrings, as usual I use clip earrings which are useful for people who don't have ear piercings, so they can still use these earrings to support their cosplay look. As for the necklace, I used a chain material with balls decorated and then a sky blue teardrop gemstone for the pendant. I will share the entire photo of this product below, e-commerce store links and Instagram will also be included.
