Since 2003, the CGSociety has regularly launched some of the largest online digital art competitions ever undertaken. Often hosting three or four such challenges per year, each one is distinctly themed to encourage a large cross section of entires from amazingly talented artists from across the globe.

Through the exposure attached to competing (and especially the prestige of winning) these competitons, artists often gain employment at the very best visual effects studios in the business.

Every December since 2004 the CGSociety has provided an exhaustive wrap-up of the most important happenings in the CG world over the previous 12 months.

These visually and informationally rich reviews are extremely popular, often attracting around 100,000 viewers over the festive season alone.

In partnership with leading Computer Graphics hardware pioneers NVIDIA, the CGSociety has run a series of successful digital art competitions, each with a distinctive theme and resulting entires to match.

Opportunities to experiment with visual treatments for each contest allowed me to successfully match the 'hero' image and logo treatment with the competition theme.
