Rookies 2022 - Deadline 1st June

2022 Rookies Now Open
At Escape Studios we encourage all of our students to enter The Rookies Awards, the international competition for young creatives. The deadline to enter this year is 1st June 2022.

The Rookies was founded in 2009 to "showcase the most talented student designers, illustrators, film makers, animators, developers, digital artists, and launch them into the career of their dreams."

This year the deadline is 1st June 2022, so there is plenty of time to polish your work and enter the competition.

About the Rookies
The 11th Annual Rookie Awards is a global showcase for talent; it is open to young creatives in visual effects, animation, games, virtual reality, motion graphics and 3d visualisation.

Getting started
Start by creating an entry page and submitting your details. You set up a page and use it to showcase your best work - this can be both as a team (say, on a group project) and also individual work (note that professional client-facing paid work is not admissible).  

Students should treat their entry page as something they would show a recruiter when applying for a job. It should include a small bio about you, examples of your work, and your work history.

Deadline to Enter
"Offcut" - VFX Finalist in 2020
You can enter your work anytime until the deadline of June 1st 2022.

Rookies Rules 
To enter The Rookies you must:
  • be 18 years or older.
  • have studied at a certified university, school, or online training facility between January 2021 and May 2022.
  • create an entry page and upload examples of your work
