QUICK DRAW MARCH
A record 75 teams entered this year’s Cardiff QuickDraw animation jam competition, which took place last weekend, with teams working around the clock to create short animated films on the theme “Green”. 30 (!) new animated short films were created over the course of the 48 hour competition.
The winning film will be chosen by the Cardiff Animation Festival jury – Daisy Gould, Head of Marketing at Cardiff’s Iris Prize LGBT+ Film Festival as well as a trained animator, Yvonne Connike, a programmer, curator and founder of Cinema Golau and the Black Film Festival Wales, and Beth Hughes, an animator and director, currently working as Series Director of children’s television show Luo Bao Bei at Cloth Cat Animation.
Audiences and filmmakers from around the world came together to watch all the films submitted in our online watch party!
If you missed any or want to watch all the films again they are all here for you to enjoy!
