We are delighted to announce the launch of the very first Stremio Fan ART Contest. Between today and June 25, 2021 artists from all over the world will compete to show off their skills, creativity and visual style. The top artists will share a juicy prize pool of $5,000 payable in Paypal or Bitcoin.
The Stremio ART Contest 2021 is the first of its kind for our team – we’d like to entertain our true fans with some exquisite Stremio-themed art content from artists all around the world. That’s why we invite you – all professional or amateur artists above the age of 18 – to participate by creating and submitting original, Stremio-inspired artwork based on the contest prompt.
As you probably know, Stremio already has more than 15 Million users enjoying our media entertainment hub. Show us in what way Stremio or our mascot, the purple cat Stremurrr changed your daily life! In your art, we want to see how you are inspired by the boundless potential of what Stremio can offer to make everyone’s watching experience greater. We challenge you to create works of art that express what Stremio means to you!
We encourage you to join the fun and show off your skills! Express yourself and submit your amazing artwork. Winners will get widespread worldwide recognition and cash prizes.
The prizes
We will award four prizes to the participants who perform best in the competition:
- First prize: $2,000
- Second prize: $1,500
- Third prize: $1,000
- Community prize: $500
The first, second and third prizes will be determined by a jury of Stremio team members – our team will judge the art submissions based on various criteria like relevance of the artwork, overall emotional impact, composition, visual qualities, technical excellence, originality, artistic skills, etc.
The community prize will be decided by a public community vote.
Contest timeline
The contest opens today, April 12, 2021, and will accept entries until June 25, 2021, so make sure not to miss the deadline if you’re planning to take part!
Between June 25 – July 2 we will judge submissions and our community will be voting on their favourite artworks. The winners will be announced on July 5, 2021.
ART Contest FAQ
Q: Do I need drawing skills to participate?
A: Hopefully yes but not necessarily. You need to be able to produce an original digital art piece for the contest and great drawing skills would help a lot. While the focus of the contest is digital art, we’d love to see you express your Stremio fan-ness in photography, sculpture, origami or pasta art (but, like, real’ good pasta art, ok?).
Q: Can I submit a TikTok video?
A: No. Just… No.
Q: Can I submit more than one art piece?
A: Absolutely! You can submit as many art pieces as you wish.
Q: Can I publicly post my submission for the contest in my social profiles?
A: Yes, we actually encourage you to do so and paste the link to your post in the contest submission form. Just make sure the image is of high quality.
Q: Can I submit an art that was created before the contest and/or was submitted in another contest?
A: Preferably not. We encourage you to create a new original art, relevant to the contest brief.
Q: Can I use other colors too, not just purple?
A: Indeed. Go wild with the greens and reds and yellows and so on. You’ll get bonus points if you manage to invent a new color.
Q: How much NSFW is ok?
A: We don’t want to limit your creativity but if your fan art is better suited for the hardcore section of your favourite porn site, it’s best to submit it to your favourite porn site insted of this contest.
Q: Can I ask my friends to vote for my art?
A: Yes! And not just your friends – we recommend you ask your mom, your grandma and aunt Sheril to vote too, so you have an even better chance to win our community vote.
Q: Can I submit someone else’s artwork?
A: Do you want your family to be ashamed of you? Because that’s how you get them to be ashamed of you. Don’t copy other people’s work!

A: 42 and purple cats.
