Ready to race?
Here's how.
Creative Brief
We’re not asking for a polished race car promo. Your challenge is to take the GEN4 assets, which have barely been seen outside the paddock, and create something truly original.
That might be photorealistic sports-noir, high-concept sci-fi, or mixed-media animation. Breathe life into this monster of a machine in whichever style you like.
Show us something that belongs on the UK’s biggest cinema screen.
Entry Mechanics
All films must be created in 1080p resolution and landscape (16:9) aspect ratio.

Creation of reference still-images, audio, or post-production may use any tools.
