Rookie Awards 2024 - Open for Entries!

Circus Challenge

We first launched this challenge back in May 2011. It's time to revisit all the exotic animals, performers and wonder that was created for us all those years ago.

Circus Challenge | Environment Design

This contest is targeted towards concept artists, illustrators, modelling artists, texture artists and lighting TDs. All other artists are allowed to enter and will be considered fairly based on their entry.

The Brief

Create a Circus environment for so animals and performers can entertain the general public

Get creative with your Circus. It could be in the future, it could be from the past. It could even be from another planet. The key here is to pay attention to the design and details of your environment. How big is your circus? Is it an underground circus, hidden from most people? What type of animals perform at the Circus? Is the Circus under water? You decide!

Judging Criteria

  • The Process - we want to see your process from start to finish. This contest uses the Play by Play project builder which means you can share every little update similar to a forum.
  • Technical & Creative Skills - it doesn’t matter if you are a modeller, a texture artist or lighting TD. The key here is how you showcase your skills.

For full requirements, guidelines and deliverables please read the Official Rules.
