Oh yeah. Lace up yer moon boots because it’s time for another Blender Guru competition.
Obligatory banner:
Theme: The Future!
I want to see your predictions for how life on earth could look in the future. Flying cars? Holographic iPhones? Life without cancer?! It’s up to you. Be creative.
The best image related to the theme wins
The Prize
Any item from the Blender e-Shop + $500 donated to a charity of your choice + a permanent spot in the Winners Hall of Fame!
A charity prize? Yep! I personally feel more motivated when the competition is for a good cause. I hope you do too!
The winner of the
last competition was
Sakari Leppa who donated his $500 to
Sea Shepherd, which helps to protect ocean ecosystems and end the slaughter of marine wildlife. What a great cause!

Tips for this competition:
- Go easy on the sci-fi. Please. The average viewer has seen enough spaceships and pointy cityscapes to last them 3 lifetimes. Be creative but realistic. Make it believable to current life on earth.
- It should be pretty, but not pointless. Try to tell a story with your image.
- Become a sponge for inspiration. There are tons of movies, books and video games set in the future. By submersing yourself in their worlds it may help you to visualize yours.
