That propelled me to enter additional design contests and even a few video contests.
Unfortunately, I didn't win additional contests, and my interests have since shifted.
Design contests are a great way to push your creative side, learn, and develop your skills. The fact that all contests have a deadline, means you can't put them off.
I have submitted a video for a Super Bowl commercial, a Lego animation, and designed a restaurant, an office building, a kitchen, and furniture.
I've also entered and even won a various 'photoshop' contests.
If you need something to do or you're stuck in a rut, try a contest. You may even win a prize.
