Thanks, Zip!
I also vote for a redo and a second round at this contest idea. Cash or Envato credit only for prizes.
Votw for #15, Austen Henry! Its really cool, swear!
Agreed. They are all great though.
Good luck Austen!
#6 Raoul van Kammen
nice idea!
#2 is the best
waiting for April
There are a handful of quality renders here.
But #16 Jason Ritter really nailed it I think.
#8 is great
Most are pretty average – just doing the photoshop tutorial and animating the objects sliding or popping in. They didn’t give the concept a proper think.
But I think #13 and #16 are the best.
So shaky, some bad, some good. But #13, I really like. Sound technique and fun soundtrack.
Were we allowed to do tutorials from different websites?
Number 17# really stood out the most for me. Nice job.
I think a lot suffered from creative development, but good for those who took a shot and threw their hat in the ring. Something more of us should have done.
Creativity wise #16 all the way, Took a good PSD and developed a creative way of integrating it in motion.
#7 was good but just seemed to end abruptly
For those talking about redo’s and recalls where were all your submissions??
13 should be disqualified, in the description for the contest you said psdtuts website ONLY.
even though it is absolutely awesome, it makes it unfair for everyone else.
i doubt the selection panel,
am sure there are better entries.
#13 should be disqualified.
Double rainbow all the way!
#18 IS REALLY NEAT…
#13 nailed our world as it is! That gave us reality, and Patterson’s rainbow gave us hope.
I think #13 did a great job..keep up the good work Seth
the #13 should be disqualified

#5 Alexander Dohr
#16 Jason Ritter
BOTH ARE EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL LOOKING ADVERTS!!!
Me gusta el 09 de Jairo Arráez. Los demás tambié están muy bien, pero me quedo con el dinamismo de Roscachapa
#17 is actually amazing, the effects are so good, looks like it should be in a film
No. 13 is “Great.” This person has really grasped this concept.. Does he need a job?
As much as 13 is cool, I think that is a common effect that isn’t even based off of a PSD tutorial. I still give it props, but it shouldn’t be in this competition. My favs are #17, #15, and #7. Those guys nailed it.
I created #13. I found the tutorial on psdtuts, but didn’t realize until later that it was linked from a different site. Here’s the psd tuts page. http://psd.tutsplus.com/articles/web/53-crazy-good-digital-photography-tutorials/
Top 3:
[1] – #13 – Seth Piguet
[2] – #15 – Austen Henry
[3] – #18 – Aaron Patterson
Other than my own video #18, my other favorites are #15 & #16. I really think they did a great job with making something better out of the tutorials.
Double rainbow…all the way. Nice work Aaron.
#13 is by the far the best.
