Witness an epic cartoon memory showdown live on stage, as a bunch of talented animators and illustrators go head-to-head
Could you remember how to draw your favorite childhood cartoon characters from memory? What about if you were racing against the clock?! Or another speedy artist?! And with extra prompts thrown into the mix!?! All while in front of a live audience?!?!!
This is the challenge that awaits our creative competitors as they wrack their brains for memories of animated icons in the most chaotic live event all weekend!
Hosted by comedian Jose Fortuna, this is an event not to be missed!
Judging the sketches will be, Julia Pott, Joanna Quinn and last year's champion, Dani Abram.
Dewch i wylio brwydr cof cartŵn epig yn fyw ar y llwyfan, wrth i griw o animeiddwyr a darlunwyr dawnus fynd benben.
Allech chi gofio sut i dynnu llun o hoff gymeriadau cartŵn eich plentyndod o’ch cof? Beth pe baech chi’n rasio yn erbyn y cloc? Yn erbyn artist cyflym arall?! A gydag ysgogiadau ychwanegol yn cael eu taflu i’r gymysgedd!? A’r cyfan o flaen cynulleidfa fyw?!?!!
Dyma’r her sy’n wynebu ein cystadleuwyr creadigol wrth iddyn nhw geisio cofio eiconau’r byd animeiddio yn nigwyddiad byw mwyaf gwyllt y penwythnos!
Digwyddiad dan arweiniad y digrifwr Jose Fortuna, a bydd hwn yn werth ei weld!
Yn beirniadu'r brasluniau bydd Julia Pott, Joanna Quinn a phencampwr y llynedd, Dani Abram.
