Hi everyone!

I'm happy to unveil CG Challenge XXII, "Uplift Universe - Alien Relations". It is free to enter and we encourage everybody to join in!

With over $100,000 USD total value prize pool!

Aliens are a common theme in CG art. They are a popular subject in science fiction and fantasy genres and feature strongly in the imaginations of our generation. In Uplift Universe - Alien Relations, you are challenged to go beyond the simple creation of an alien, and show the interaction between humans and aliens.

This time around, we've merged the Animation and Short Film categories into one category - Video - to give you all the flexibility you asked for. Team entries are allowed in the Video category, and will be awarded separately. We've also split the Image and Video deadlines, so you get a little bit more time to render out your movies.
