Comic-Con Cape Town will host the last of its four-day festival on Sunday, and among the excitement that awaits pop culture fanatics will be the regional cosplay championship announcement.

Comic-Con Cape Town: Creatives take centre stage on Day 3

The Cape Town International Animation Festival (CTIAF) partnered with Comic-Con Cape Town to provide a captivating programme for industry experts, aspiring animators and animation enthusiasts alike.

The day started with a Physical Theatre Masterclass with Rob van Vuuren, a multi-award-winning actor, writer, comedian and director, who shared his expertise in multiple characterisations and physicalising emotional states.

The Story Battle workshop then offered a crash course on visual storytelling with Triggerfish Academy, allowing participants to create appealing characters and gain industry insider tips.

Delegates were treated to a sneak preview of Aau’s Song, a locally produced film featured in Star Wars Visions Volume 2, followed by an in-depth Q-and-A with the film’s directors and producer.

The festival also featured two screenings: Best of CTIAF and Best of Animation School, showcasing some of the best short animation films submitted in 2022.

On Sunday, the final day of the festival will kick off with Houdini expert Simon Browne taking delegates on a whirlwind tour of SideFX’s Houdini software, demonstrating how it empowers artists across the world to create exciting, animated images.

The festival will wrap up with Sunday Sundowners and a Sketching session, a relaxed life-drawing session with live models and drinks, hosted by BAFTA-winning director Daniel Snaddon.
