Cast members are responsible for creating a welcoming and memorable experience through authentic, in-character performances, conversations, table games, and photo opportunities.
We value a strong emphasis on acting and performance over visual accuracy when it comes to cosplay actors. Cast are expected to provide their own cosplay, wigs, makeup, and props — and arrange their own travel to and during the convention.

Professionalism, punctuality, and adherence to rehearsal schedules, performance direction, and costume standards are required at all times. Cast members will work 4 hours on Friday, 8PM - 12AM.
FANSERVICE LOUNge /OR EXHIBITION BOOTH
Cosplayers will rotate through scheduled shifts throughout the weekend and are expected to appear in full character and costume. During their shift, cast will support photo opportunities and light fanservice moments for visiting attendees, maintaining the same romantic, immersive atmosphere as the Ball itself. Cast should remain standing, engaged, and interactive — ensuring every guest feels part of the Love & Deepspace experience while upholding professionalism, approachability, and the event’s standard of elegance and charm. Our Exhibitor Booth Schedule will be dependant on cast individual scheduling. Booth fanservice and photo ops will be paid out in full to compensate the cosplayer on shift.
