My love letter to cosplay | Adam Savage

Translator: Petra Zmatková Reviewer: Peter Vyparina

There's this fact that I love that I read somewhere once,

Je jeden fakt, ktorý milujem a raz som ho kdesi čítal,

that one of the things that's contributed to homo sapiens' success

že jedna z vecí, ktorá prispela k úspechu rasy

as a species

homo sapiens,

is our lack of body hair --

je náš nedostatok chlpov –

that our hairlessness, our nakedness

že naša bezvlasosť a nahosť

combined with our invention of clothing,

skombinovaná s naším vynálezom oblečenia

gives us the ability to modulate our body temperature

nám dáva možnosť upravovať našu telesnú teplotu

and thus be able to survive in any climate we choose.

a teda sme schopní prežiť v klíme, akú si vyberieme.

And now we've evolved to the point where we can't survive without clothing.

Až sme sa vyvinuli do bodu, keď bez oblečenia neprežijeme.

And it's more than just utility,

A je to viac, než len užitočné,

now it's a communication.

teraz je to komunikácia.

Everything that we choose to put on is a narrative,

Všetko, čo si vyberieme, že dáme na seba, je príbehom

a story about where we've been,

o tom, kde sme boli,

what we're doing,

čo sme robili,

who we want to be.

kým chceme byť.

I was a lonely kid.

Bol som osamelé dieťa.

I didn't have an easy time finding friends to play with,

Nebolo pre mňa ľahké nájsť si priateľov, s ktorými som sa

and I ended up making a lot of my own play.

mohol hrať, a tak som sa nakoniec veľa hral sám.

I made a lot of my own toys.

Vyrobil som si veľa vlastných hračiek.

It began with ice cream.

Všetko to začalo zmrzlinou.

There was a Baskin-Robbins in my hometown,

V mojom meste boli Baskin-Robbins,

and they served ice cream from behind the counter

ktorí servírovali zmrzlinu spoza pultu

in these giant, five-gallon, cardboard tubs.

v takýchto obrovských, 5 galónových kartónových tubách

And someone told me -- I was eight years old --

A niekto mi povedal – mal som 8 rokov –

someone told me that when they were done with those tubs,

niekto mi povedal, že keď sa z nich zmrzlina minula,

they washed them out and kept them in the back,

umyli ich a uložili dozadu,

and if you asked they would give you one.

a ak by ste sa opýtali, jednu vám dajú.

It took me a couple of weeks to work up the courage,

Zabralo mi pár týždňov, než som nazbieral guráž,

but I did, and they did.

ale nakoniec to vyšlo.

They gave me one -- I went home with this beautiful cardboard tub.

Dali mi jednu tubu – a domov som šiel s krásnou kartónovou tubou.

I was trying to figure out what I could do with this exotic material --

Skúšal som vymyslieť, čo sa dá robiť s týmto exotickým materiálom

kovový kruh zhora aj zdola.

metal ring, top and bottom.

I started turning it over in my head, and I realized, "Wait a minute --

Začal som si to otáčať v hlave až mi napadlo: „počkať chvíľku –

my head actually fits inside this thing."

moja hlava sa vlastne zmestí dnu.“

(Laughter)

(smiech)

Yeah, I cut a hole out,

No a tak som vyrezal dieru,

I put some acetate in there

dal som dnu acetát

and I made myself a space helmet.

a vyrobil som si vesmírnu helmu.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

I needed a place to wear the space helmet,

Potreboval som miesto, kde by som ju nosil,

takže som našiel škatuľu od chladničky pár blokov od domu.

so I found a refrigerator box a couple blocks from home.

I pushed it home,

Dotlačil som ju domov,

and in my parents' guest room closet,

a v šatníku hosťovskej izby rodičov,

I turned it into a spaceship.

som ju prerobil na vesmírnu raketu.

I started with a control panel out of cardboard.

Začal som s kontrolným panelom z kartónu.

I cut a hole for a radar screen

Vyrezal som dieru na obrazovku radaru

and put a flashlight underneath it to light it.

a pod to som dal baterku, aby som to osvetlil

I put a view screen up, which I offset off the back wall --

Dal som tam výhľad, ktorý som vyrezal zo zadnej steny –

and this is where I thought I was being really clever --

a tu som si myslel, že som naozaj chytrý –

without permission, I painted the back wall of the closet black

bez dovolenia som natrel stenu šatníka načierno

a namaľoval som tam

and put a star field,

which I lit up with some Christmas lights I found in the attic,

hviezdne pole, ktoré som zažal vianočnými svetlami,

čo som našiel v podkroví,

and I went on some space missions.

a šiel som na vesmírne misie.

A couple years later,

O pár rokov

the movie "Jaws" came out.

vyšiel film Čeľuste.

I was way too young to see it, but I was caught up in "Jaws" fever,

Bol som príliš mladý na to, aby som to videl, ale tak ako ostatní v Amerike,

like everyone else in America at the time.

som bol posadnutý mániou Čeľustí.

There was a store in my town that had a "Jaws" costume in their window,

V mojom meste bol obchod s kostýmom Čeľustí vo výklade

and my mom must have overheard me talking to someone

a moja mama ma musela začuť rozprávať sa o tom s niekým

about how awesome I thought this costume was,

ako som si myslel, že ten kostým je úžasný,

because a couple days before Halloween,

lebo pár dní pred Halloweenom

she blew my freaking mind by giving me this "Jaws" costume.

ma dostala do úžasu tým, že mi dala tento kostým Čeľuste.

Now, I recognize it's a bit of a trope

Viem, že sa ľudia istého veku

for people of a certain age to complain

radi sťažujú, že terajšie deti

that kids these days have no idea how good they have it,

nemajú poňatia, ako dobre sa majú,

but let me just show you a random sampling

ale dovoľte mi ukázať vám náhodný príklad

of entry-level kids' costumes you can buy online right now ...

kostýmov pre malé deti, ktoré môžete kúpiť teraz online...

... and this is the "Jaws" costume my mom bought for me.

... a toto je kostým Čeľuste, ktorý mi kúpila mama.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

This is a paper-thin shark face

Toto je papierovo tenká tvár žraloka

and a vinyl bib with the poster of "Jaws" on it.

a vinylový podbradník s plagátom Čeľustí.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

And I loved it.

A ja som to miloval.

A couple years later,

O pár rokov neskôr

my dad took me to a film called "Excalibur."

ma môj otec zobral na film Excalibur.

I actually got him to take me to it twice,

Vlastne som ho presvedčil, aby ma zobral 2-krát,

which is no small thing, because it is a hard, R-rated film.

čo nebola maličkosť, keďže je to ozaj ťažký, 18+ film.

But it wasn't the blood and guts or the boobs

Ale nebola to krv a vnútornosti či prsia,

that made me want to go see it again.

ktoré ma donútili vidieť to zas.

They helped --

Pomohlo to –

(Laughter)

(smiech)

It was the armor.

Bolo to to brnenie.

The armor in "Excalibur" was intoxicatingly beautiful to me.

Brnenie v Excalibure bolo pre mňa ohurujúco krásne.

These were literally knights in shining, mirror-polished armor.

Boli tam doslova rytieri v žiarivých, vyleštených brneniach.

And moreover, the knights in "Excalibur" wear their armor everywhere.

A čo viac, rytieri v Excalibure nosili svoje brnenia všade.

All the time -- they wear it at dinner, they wear it to bed.

Po celý čas – nosili ich na večeru, do postele.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

I was like, "Are they reading my mind?

A ja som si myslel: „Čítate mi myšlienky?

I want to wear armor all the time!"

Tiež chcem stále nosiť brnenie!“

(Laughter)

(smiech)

So I went back to my favorite material,

A tak som sa vrátil k môjmu obľúbenému materiálu,

the gateway drug for making,

východiskovej látke k výrobe,

corrugated cardboard,

k vlnitému kartónu,

and I made myself a suit of armor,

a vyrobil som si celotelové brnenie,

replete with the neck shields and a white horse.

kompletné s ochranou krku a bielym koňom.

Now that I've oversold it,

Teraz, keď som to prehnal,

here's a picture of the armor that I made.

tu je obrázok brnenia, čo som vyrobil.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

(Applause)

(potlesk)

Now, this is only the first suit of armor I made

Ale toto je len prvé brnenie, inšpirované Excaliburom,

inspired by "Excalibur."

čo som vyrobil.

A couple of years later,

O pár rokov neskôr

I convinced my dad to embark on making me a proper suit of armor.

som presvedčil môjho otca, aby mi pomohol s výrobou ozajstného brnenia.

Over about a month,

Počas asi mesiaca

he graduated me from cardboard to roofing aluminum called flashing

ma preniesol od kartónu k hliníkovej strešnej krytine

and still, one of my all-time favorite attachment materials,

a k jednému z mojich celočasovo najobľúbenejších

POP rivets.

spojovacích materiálov.

We carefully, over that month,

Opatrne sme počas toho mesiaca

constructed an articulated suit of aluminum armor

zmontovali presvedčivé brnenie z hliníka

with compound curves.

so zabudovanými krivkami.

We drilled holes in the helmet so that I could breathe,

Vyrezali sme diery v helme, aby som mohol dýchať,

and I finished just in time for Halloween and wore it to school.

skončil som presne včas na Halloween a obliekol som si to do školy.

Now, this is the one thing in this talk

Nuž, toto je jediná vec v tejto prednáške,

that I don't have a slide to show you,

ktorú vám nedokážem ukázať,

because no photo exists of this armor.

pretože neexistuje fotka tohto brnenia.

I did wear it to school,

Naozaj som to mal v škole,

there was a yearbook photographer patrolling the halls,

bol tam ročenkový fotograf, ktorý obliehal chodby,

but he never found me, for reasons that are about to become clear.

ale nenašiel ma, pre príčiny, ktoré sa čoskoro stanú zjavnými.

There were things I didn't anticipate

Sú veci, ktoré som neočakával

about wearing a complete suit of aluminum armor to school.

pri oblečení celého brnenia z hliníka do školy.

In third period math, I was standing in the back of class,

Počas tretej hodiny, matematiky, som stál vzadu v triede,

and I'm standing in the back of class

a tam som stál, pretože brnenie

because the armor did not allow me to sit down.

mi nedovoľovalo si sadnúť.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

This is the first thing I didn't anticipate.

To bola prvá vec, čo som neočakával.

And then my teacher looks at me sort of concerned

A potom sa na mňa znepokojene pozrie učiteľka

about halfway through the class and says, "Are you feeling OK?"

asi tak v polovici hodiny a povie: „Cítiš sa dobre?“

I'm thinking, "Are you kidding? Am I feeling OK?

Ja si myslím: „Žartujete? Či sa cítim dobre?

Mám na sebe brnenie! Je to najlepší okamih môjho –“

I'm wearing a suit of armor! I am having the time of my --"

And I'm just about to tell her how great I feel,

A chystám sa jej povedať, ako skvele sa cítim,

when the classroom starts to list to the left

keď sa zrazu trieda začne nakláňať doľava

and disappear down this long tunnel,

a stratí sa v tom dlhom tuneli,

and then I woke up in the nurse's office.

a potom som sa zobudil na ošetrovni.

I had passed out from heat exhaustion,

Odpadol som z prehriatia

wearing the armor.

kvôli brneniu.

And when I woke up,

A keď som sa zobudil,

I wasn't embarrassed about having passed out in front of my class,

necítil som sa trápne pre odpadnutie pred mojou triedou,

uvažoval som: „Kto mi zobral brnenie? Kde je?“

I was wondering, "Who took my armor? Where's my armor?"

OK, fast-forward a whole bunch of years,

OK, pretočme to o pár rokov,

some colleagues and I get hired to make a show for Discovery Channel,

ja a pár kolegov sme dostali prácu robiť šou pre Discovery Channel

called "MythBusters."

zvanú Ničitelia mýtov.

And over 14 years,

A počas 14 rokov

I learn on the job how to build experimental methodologies

som sa v práci naučil, ako zostaviť experimentálne metódy

and how to tell stories about them for television.

a ako o nich povedať v televízii.

I also learn early on

Tiež som sa skoro naučil,

that costuming can play a key role in this storytelling.

že kostýmy hrajú kľúčovú rolu v rozprávaní príbehov.

I use costumes to add humor, comedy, color

Používam kostýmy, aby som príbehom dodal

humor, komédiu, farbu a prehľadnosť.

and narrative clarity to the stories we're telling.

And then we do an episode called "Dumpster Diving,"

A keď sme natáčali epizódu zvanú Skok do kontajnera,

and I learn a little bit more

naučil som sa trochu viac o tom,

about the deeper implications of what costuming means to me.

čo hlbšie dôsledky kostýmov znamenajú pre mňa.

In the episode "Dumpster Diving,"

V epizóde Skok do kontajnera

sme sa snažili zodpovedať otázku:

the question we were trying to answer is:

„Je skákanie do kontajnera

Is jumping into a dumpster as safe

as the movies would lead you to believe?

také bezpečné, ako to ukazujú filmy?“

(Laughter)

(smiech)

The episode was going to have two distinct parts to it.

Táto epizóda zahŕňala dve časti.

One was where we get trained to jump off buildings by a stuntman

Jedna, keď nás kaskadér trénoval, ako zoskočiť z budovy

into an air bag.

do nafukovačky.

And the second was the graduation to the experiment:

A druhá bola skúška experimentu:

we'd fill a dumpster full of material and we'd jump into it.

naplníme kontajner materiálom a skočíme doň.

I wanted to visually separate these two elements,

Chcel som vizuálne oddeliť tieto dve časti

and I thought,

a myslel som si:

"Well, for the first part we're training, so we should wear sweatsuits --

„No tak pre prvú časť trénujeme, tak by sme mali mať súpravu –

Oh! Let's put 'Stunt Trainee' on the back of the sweatsuits.

O! Dajme tam „Kaskadér v zácviku“ na chrbát súprav.

That's for the training."

To bude na tréning.“

But for the second part, I wanted something really visually striking --

Ale pre druhú časť som chcel niečo vizuálne ohurujúce –

"I know! I'll dress as Neo from 'The Matrix.'"

„Už viem! Oblečiem sa ako Neo z Matrixu.“

(Laughter)

(smiech)

So I went to Haight Street.

Tak som šiel na Haight Street.

I bought some beautiful knee-high, buckle boots.

Kúpil som si krásne čižmy s prackami, po kolená.

I found a long, flowing coat on eBay.

Našiel som dlhý, vlajúci kabát na eBayi.

I got sunglasses, which I had to wear contact lenses in order to wear.

Kúpil som si slnečné okuliare, kvôli ktorým som musel mať

kontaktné šošovky.

The day of the experiment shoot comes up,

Nadišiel deň natáčania pokusu,

and I step out of my car in this costume,

ja vystúpim z auta v tom kostýme

and my crew takes a look at me ...

a štáb na mňa pozrie...

and start suppressing their church giggles.

a začne potláčať svoje chichoty.

They're like, "(Laugh sound)."

Zneli takto: „(zvuk smiechu).“

And I feel two distinct things at this moment.

Vtedy som cítil dve odlišné veci.

I feel total embarrassment

Cítil som úplné poníženie,

over the fact that it's so nakedly clear to my crew

pretože môjmu štábu je tak očividne jasné,

that I'm completely into wearing this costume.

že som tak veľmi na kostýmy.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

But the producer in my mind reminds myself

Ale producent v mojej mysli mi pripomenul,

that in the high-speed shot in slow-mo,

že v spomalenom zábere

that flowing coat is going to look beautiful behind me.

môj plášť bude za mnou vyzerať krásne.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

Five years into the "MythBusters" run,

Päť rokov, čo bežali Ničitelia mýtov,

we got invited to appear at San Diego Comic-Con.

nás pozvali ukázať sa na na Comic-Cone v San Diegu.

I'd known about Comic-Con for years and never had time to go.

Vedel som o Comic-Cone roky a nikdy som nemal čas tam ísť.

This was the big leagues -- this was costuming mecca.

Toto bola veľká liga – je to mekka kostýmov.

People fly in from all over the world

Ľudia sem letia z celého sveta,

to show their amazing creations on the floor in San Diego.

aby ukázali svoje úžasné výtvory na zemi San Diega.

And I wanted to participate.

A ja som sa chcel zúčastniť.

I decided that I would put together an elaborate costume

Rozhodol som sa, že zložím komplikovaný kostým,

that covered me completely,

ktorý ma úplne zakrýval,

and I would walk the floor of San Diego Comic-Con anonymously.

a chodil by som po Comic-Cone v San Diegu anonymne.

The costume I chose?

A aký kostým som si vybral?

Hellboy.

Hellboya.

That's not my costume,

Toto nie je môj kostým,

that's actually Hellboy.

toto je skutočný Hellboy.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

But I spent months

Ale strávil som mesiace

assembling the most screen-accurate Hellboy costume I could,

zbieraním najpresnejšieho kostýmu Hellboya, akého som mohol,

from the boots to the belt to the pants

od čižiem cez opasok po nohavice

to the right hand of doom.

až po pravú ruku zatratenia.

I found a guy who made a prosthetic Hellboy head and chest

Našiel som chlapíka, ktorý vyrábal nasadzovaciu hlavu a hruď Hellboya,

and I put them on.

čo som si dal na seba.

I even had contact lenses made in my prescription.

Dokonca som mal predpísané kontaktné šošovky.

I wore it onto the floor at Comic-Con

Mal som to na sebe na Comic-Cone

and I can't even tell you how balls hot it was in that costume.

a neviem vám ani povedať, ako hrozne horúco v tom kostýme bolo.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

Sweating! I should've remembered this.

Potenie! Mal som si to pamätať.

I'm sweating buckets and the contact lenses hurt my eyes,

Vypotil som litre a z kontaktných šošoviek ma rozboleli oči,

and none of it matters because I'm totally in love.

ale na ničom z toho nezáležalo, pretože som bol úplne zamilovaný.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

Not just with the process of putting on this costume and walking the floor,

Nielen ten proces navliekania kostýmu a kráčaniu po Comic-Cone,

but also with the community of other costumers.

ale tiež komunitu ostatných kostýmerov.

It's not called costuming at Cons,

Na Conoch sa tomu nehovorí kostýmy.

it's called "cosplay."

Hovorí sa tomu „cosplay“.

Now ostensibly, cosplay means people who dress up

Nuž, zdanlivo, cosplay znamená ľudí, čo sa prezlečú

as their favorite characters from film and television

za svoje obľúbené postavy z filmu a televízie

and especially anime,

a hlave z anime,

but it is so much more than that.

ale je to oveľa viac.

These aren't just people who find a costume and put it on --

Nie sú to len ľudia, ktorí si nájdu kostým a dajú si ho na seba –

they mash them up.

oni ich zmiešajú dokopy.

They bend them to their will.

Ohnú podľa svojej vôle.

They change them to be the characters they want to be in those productions.

Zmenia ich na postavy, ktoré chcú byť v tejto predlohe.

They're super clever and genius.

Sú super chytrí a geniálni.

They let their freak flag fly and it's beautiful.

Nechajú plynúť svoju podivnosť a je to nádherné.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

But more than that,

Ale naviac,

they rehearse their costumes.

v kostýmoch nacvičujú.

At Comic-Con or any other Con,

Na Comic-Cone, alebo inom Cone,

you don't just take pictures of people walking around.

jednoducho neodfotíte len tak ľudí, ktorí idú okolo.

You go up and say,

Prídete k nim a poviete:

"Hey, I like your costume, can I take your picture?"

„Čau, páči sa mi tvoj kostým, môžem si ťa odfotiť?“

And then you give them time to get into their pose.

A dáte im čas, aby sa dostali do svojej pózy.

They've worked hard on their pose

Na svojej póze pracovali tvrdo,

to make their costume look great for your camera.

aby ich kostým vyzeral skvele práve pre váš foťák.

And it's so beautiful to watch.

A je to úžasné sledovať.

And I take this to heart.

A ja som si to zobral k srdcu.

At subsequent Cons,

Na nasledujúcich Conoch

I learn Heath Ledger's shambling walk as the Joker from "The Dark Knight."

som sa naučil šmatlavú chôdzu Jokera Heatha Ledgera z Temného Rytiera,

I learn how to be a scary Ringwraith from "Lord of the Rings,"

naučil som sa, ako byť desivý Prsteňový prízrak z Pána prsteňov.

and I actually frighten some children.

A naozaj som vystrašil nejaké deti.

I learned that "hrr hrr hrr" --

Naučil som sa to „hrr hrr hrr“ –

that head laugh that Chewbacca does.

ten hrdelný smiech Chewbaccu.

And then I dressed up as No-Face from "Spirited Away."

A potom som sa prezliekol za Muža bez tváre z Cesty do fantázie.

If you don't know about "Spirited Away" and its director, Hayao Miyazaki,

Ak neviete o Ceste do fantázie a o jej režisérovi Hayao Miyazakim,

first of all, you're welcome.

po prvé, nemáte za čo.

(Laughter)

(smiech)

This is a masterpiece, and one of my all-time favorite films.

Je to umelecké dielo a jeden z mojich najobľúbenejších filmov.

It's about a young girl named Chihiro who gets lost in the spirit world

Je o mladom dievčati menom Chihiro, ktorá sa stratí vo svete duchov

in an abandoned Japanese theme park.

v zabudnutom japonskom zábavnom parku.

And she finds her way back out again

A nájde aj cestu späť

with the help of a couple of friends she makes --

s pomocou pár priateľov, ktorých si tam nájde –

a captured dragon named Haku

zajatý drak menom Haku

and a lonely demon named No-Face.

a osamelý démon menom Muž bez tváre.

No-Face is lonely and he wants to make friends,

Muž bez tváre je osamelý a chce si nájsť priateľov

and he thinks the way to do it is by luring them to him

a myslí si, že ten správny spôsob je nalákať ich k sebe

and producing gold in his hand.

a produkovať zlato v rukách.

But this doesn't go very well,

Ale to nejde veľmi dobre,

and so he ends up going on kind of a rampage

takže skončí s istým druhom zúrivosti,

until Chihiro saves him,

až kým ho Chihiro nezachráni,

rescues him.

spasí ho.

So I put together a No-Face costume,

Takže som zložil kostým Muža bez tváre

and I wore it on the floor at Comic-Con.

a dal si ho na seba na Comic-Con.

And I very carefully practiced No-Face's gestures.

A veľmi starostlivo som si natrénoval gestá Muža bez tváre.

I resolved I would not speak in this costume at all.

Povedal som si, že v tom kostýme vôbec nebudem rozprávať.

When people asked to take my picture,

Ak ma ľudia požiadajú o fotku,

I would nod

prikývnem

and I would shyly stand next to them.

a budem vedľa nich placho stáť.

They would take the picture

Oni by sa odfotili

and then I would secret out from behind my robe

a ja by som potom tajne spoza róby vytiahol

a chocolate gold coin.

čokoládovú zlatú mincu.

And at the end of the photo process, I'd make it appear for them.

Na konci procesu fotenia by som im to ukázal.

Ah, ah ah! -- like that.

Aha, aha, aha! – takto.

And people were freaking out.

A ľudia šaleli.

"Holy crap! Gold from No-Face! Oh my god, this is so cool!"

„Panebože! Zlato od Muža bez tváre! Panebože, to je super!“

And I'm feeling and I'm walking the floor and it's fantastic.

A ja sa cítim fantasticky, chodím po okolí a je to super.

And about 15 minutes in something happens.

A potom asi o 15 minút sa niečo stane.

Somebody grabs my hand,

Niekto ma chytí za ruku,

and they put a coin back into it.

a dajú mi mincu späť.

And I think maybe they're giving me a coin as a return gift,

A ja si myslím, že mi dávajú mincu ako darček na oplátku,

but no, this is one of the coins that I'd given away.

ale nie, je to jedna z mincí, ktorú som dal ja.

I don't know why.

A ja neviem prečo.

And I keep on going, I take some more pictures.

A stále chodím dokola, trochu sa ešte fotím.

And then it happens again.

A potom sa to stane znova.

Understand, I can't see anything inside this costume.

Rozumejte, v tom kostýme nevidím nič.

I can see through the mouth --

Videl som cez ústa –

I can see people's shoes.

topánky iných.

I can hear what they're saying and I can see their feet.

Počul som, čo hovorili, a videl som ich chodidlá.

But the third time someone gives me back a coin,

Ale tretí raz, čo mi niekto vrátil späť mincu,

I want to know what's going on.

chcem vedieť, o čo ide.

So I sort of tilt my head back to get a better view,

Takže akosi zakloním hlavu, aby som mal lepší výhľad,

and what I see is someone walking away from me going like this.

a vidím niekoho, kto odo mňa kráča asi takto.

And then it hits me:

A potom mi to dôjde:

it's bad luck to take gold from No-Face.

Zobrať zlato od Muža bez tváre prináša nešťastie.

In the film "Spirited Away,"

Vo filme Cesta do fantázie

bad luck befalls those who take gold from No-Face.

tých, čo zoberú zlato od Muža bez tváre, postihne nešťastie.

This isn't a performer-audience relationship; this is cosplay.

Toto nie je len vzťah herec-diváci, toto je cosplay.

We are, all of us on that floor,

Vkladáme sa, všetci, čo sú na Cone,

injecting ourselves into a narrative that meant something to us.

do príbehu, ktorý pre nás niečo znamená.

And we're making it our own.

A prisvojujeme si ho.

We're connecting with something important inside of us.

Spájame sa s niečím dôležitým, čo je v nás.

And the costumes are how we reveal ourselves

A kostýmy sú spôsobom, ako sa odhaľujeme

to each other.

pred ostatnými.
