GEEK GIVEAWAY: GEEKOLOGY Cosplay Photography by JAY TABLANTE
Jay Tablante‘s work on cosplay photography has been superb! With cosplay shoots together with Filipino celebrities like Rhian Ramos, Bianca King, Solenn Heussaff, Jinri Park and known international top cosplayers like Yaya Han, Alodia Gosienfiao and Marie-Claude Bourbonnais. Jay’s portfolio on cosplay photography is truly one of the best there is.
Two saturdays ago, we finally get the chance to have a peek and learn how Jay does this shoots as he launched his first Cosplay Photography book — Geekology. During the event Jay was joined by Alodia and Jinri. After our Geekology coverage, we managed to get our hands on 5 copies of the book and got them all signed by Jay, Alodia and Jinri! (Thanks to our partners at National Book Store!)
But first, just in case you didn’t know, all of Jay’s earnings and the royalties that he get out of his cosplay related works including Geekology – everything is given to charity.
And in an effort to help out Jay, we’ve decided to put all 5 signed copies in the GEEK GIVEAWAY! But this won’t be as easy and would require a bit more from the participants especially since this is in line with the Jay’s charity cause. Here are the mechanics:
1. You must have an existing copy of Geekology already OR you have a receipt that contains a purchase of the book.
2. Simply comment on this post stating your favorite Jay Tablante cosplay shoot.
Important reminders:
1. Use your valid email address when commenting.
2. Pickup of prizes will be in METRO MANILA only.
3. Winners will be announced on NOVEMBER 30, 2012 in the official Flipgeeks facebook page and via email.
favorie would be the jean grey / phoenix one. Read an article before on how it was made. Wooow!! Really awesome shot, char, model and effects!!

One word i can say is Sir Jay and your Company Your All Awesome and GREAT.. d^_-
I really enjoyed seeing him and Alodia in Malaysia while I was staying there. luckily the Malaysian gamecon was nearby and I was able to attend it was nice seeing filipino talent being showcased overseas and to see them live as well was a double treat. I liked it when he covered Alodia she excels at cosplay and Jay make sures they are all captured for posterity!
The best one for me has to be the White Phoenix of the Crown featuring Alodia. It is the best one yet. Its like Tablante focused all he learned in the past few years of digital imagery and poured it all on the that shot.
i met Mr Tablante last Komikon 2012 , awesome guy. My favorite Jay Tablante cosplay shoot would be Jinri Park as Psylocke for three reasons, im big fan of geek culture/photography, Jinri Park, and Psylocke http://on.fb.me/QvHAWD
