World VFX Day – 2024 Art Competition!

A TRIP TO THE MOON

Following the success of the 2023 World VFX Day Challenge by Escape Studios for their students, this year we’re running the #EscapeToTheMoon challenge again, but this time everyone worldwide is invited to take part! 

The challenge is inspired by ‘A Trip To The Moon’ (‘Le Voyage Das La Lune’) a 1902 Sci-Fi movie by the “Godfather of VFX”, Georges Méliès.

See some of last year’s entries via Escape Studios’ Instagram, here.

World VFX Day, which takes place each year on 8th December, celebrates the art, creativity, innovation and people in the vast world of visual effects (VFX). A collective of visual effects studios, organisations and professionals from all over the world will gather for a series of talks, interviews, tutorials and giveaways. 

Escape Studios are an official Education Partner for World VFX Day, which will be live streamed from Tokyo, Japan on 6th and 8th December 2024. Make sure you subscribe to our YouTube channel for notifications on new content.

This year’s art challenge is open to everyone to participate, regardless of expertise. We aim to show as many of the entries as possible in the lead up to World VFX Day, with the winners showcase throughout the live streams.
