      Low poly, high poly, doesn’t matter. Get inspired by the theme and just go for it, if you don’t succeed to the top – you’ve still made something that you’ll (probably) be proud of.

  2. Great theme for a contest ! Really trendy and cool to test…
    I’ve a question… Where does the post image with these cute paper fishes come from ??
    I really like them ;)

  3. Hi greyscalegorilla,
    Can i increase the “color bleed” effect of an object in my scene? Like these fishes in the image of post?

    Thanks!

    • Yep. Had a conversation with my wife as I was telling her this is 3d and she was telling me she thought it was an origami installation. Not synthetic guys.

      Maybe there should be a photographic challenge where real photos must be convincingly synthetic. Photorealism VS photosynthetism or something.

      OK. over.

    • Don’t try to post your entry into the 5-Second Project channel. Just upload your video to your Vimeo account. Then copy the URL from that video and enter it in the Submissions page on this website. Nick will add your video to the channel automatically.
      Does that make sense?

      Hi, I had the same problem. My solution: I just forgot to check “Add to their collections” in my video privacy settings.

  5. Sorry, in my rush I realised that the video uploaded was not the final version. It is updating now, Vimeo says 30 mins till it is processed…

    Hi Nick!
    I’m sure you do a lot of research but just in case you missed this one, I think you should have a look before announcing a winner.

    Not only this artist explains exactly how he did it ( a year ago…), but he’s also giving the project file away………………………………………………….!!!!!

    • Mmm…., that surely changes my opinion as far as who deserves to win! It is evident that a few projects were based on this tutorial and probably even developed from the downloadable project file. A bit disappointing.
