Create the movie title of your dreams using After Effects and any Third Party Plug-ins you’d like (bundled with AE or sold separately) and you may win over $5,000 in prizes. Check out the contest details below!

Aetuts+ has teamed up with Mettle (Creators of FreeForm Pro + ShapeShifter AE) to put together a contest to help build community, spark creativity, and hopefully give you a chance to show us what you can do. Plug-in companies are always looking for talented artists to use their products to create amazing results. That is exactly what we’re looking for with this contest… something unique! Prizes from some of the top AE-related companies out there…. including Adobe itself!

The fake movie title you are working with is “Flux”, the genre is completely up to you. Your animation needs to be between 5-30 seconds. Submit your entry at 1080 HD 24p as well as the collected project file you used to create it. Use After Effects and your choice of plug-ins (bundled or sold separately) to create your entry. Kudos for those who use Freeform and/or included the Aetuts+ Logo. (Not obligatory).
