Last year, Nvidia showed off its real-time ray-tracing capabilities with the then brand new RTX series of graphics cards. The reveal was accompanied by a 2.5-minute cinematic called Project Sol as shown below created with Unreal Engine 4 and running on an Nvidia QUadro RTX 6000 graphics card.

Fast forward to 2019 and Nvidia has made its Project Sol assets free-to-use for content creators and professionals everywhere.

To celebrate the one year anniversary of the cinematic, Nvidia will be running a contest for digital artists from now until September 30, 6 PM PST. According to the official contest page here, users must have an Epic account with both Unreal Engine 4 and the Project Sol assets installed. The top three most creative and original screenshots or videos utilizing the Sol assets will win some lucrative prizes including a Razer Blade 15 Studio, Titan RTX graphics card, or a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti graphics card all retailing for well over $1000 each.

Only one entry per creator allowed as detailed by the rules here. If you're a creator, then you may as well give it a shot.
