CosPlays Got Talent Contestant

We are always trying to offer something new for our fans, so this year we are taking the concept of America’s Got Talent and bending it a little to celebrate our CosPlayers, by capitalizing on the Play in CosPlay!

Introducing for the very first time “Cosplays Got Talent!”, sponsored by Raleigh Llama Productions.

Blending a traditional talent show with the fun of CosPlay, the contest will be held from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM on the Main Stage in the ballroom of the Crown Expo Center. Contestants must be pre-registered (registration link will be provided shortly). Performance will be limited to no more than three minutes, not including interaction time with the judges. Contestants will be able to register in one of the following categories.

Categories for the “CosPlays Got Talent” Event

•         Musical (includes all Instrumental or Vocal Performances)
•         Dance (includes all Individual or Group Performances)
•         Voice (includes all Spoken Word or Poetry Performances)
•         Entertainer (includes all Comedy or Magician Performances)
•         Theatrical (includes all Skits and Creative Acts)

Further definition will be included in the registration link, as will the judging criteria.

There will be $2500 worth of CASH prizes, as follows:

•         Category 1st Place: $250
•         Category 2nd Place: $100
•         Category 3rd Place: $50
•         Best in Show: $500

The Best in Show Award must be one of the Category Winners, so that means the best act of the evening will walk away with $750!

Some hints to success – Know your CosPlay. If it is a known character, know their background. Tailor your performance to that character, or group of characters. If it is an original character, be prepared to give some backstory. This isn’t talent in costume, this is CosPlay’s Got Talent!

Get ready, look for the registration link posted here by the end of today and get practicing!
