Challenge Your Creativity: Build a Product Universe or Capture the World
Two new creative challenges are now live, and we want you to be part of them. Whether you build a complete visual campaign around a product or document the real world through photography, this is your moment to create with intention, showcase your style, and win prizes of up to €300.
🌍 Product Universe Challenge: Create a Complete Visual Campaign
We’ve launched this challenge to push contributors to think beyond single assets. We’re looking for cohesive sets of visuals centered around one product — content that could belong to a real marketing campaign.
Think about how brands launch products: they don’t rely on a single image. They build a full visual system including product shots, packaging, ads, social media visuals, and lifestyle scenes — all sharing the same creative identity.
To help you shape your submissions, the Product Universe Challenge guide is available, with references and key concepts to help you create resources aligned with what users are searching for.

📍 Places Challenge: Document the World Through Authentic Photography
If your passion is photography and real-world storytelling, the Places Challenge is open for your participation.
We invite you to document real locations and authentic moments from different regions of the world. From vibrant streets and local markets to landscapes, traditions, and everyday routines — we’re looking for images that reflect the diversity of cultures, environments, and lifestyles that make each place unique.
⚠️ AI-generated images are not allowed for this challenge. Only real photography will be accepted.
Explore the Places Challenge guide to dive deeper into the creative approach and find inspiration for your submissions.
🎯 Quality and Authenticity as Drivers of Value
In this edition, the Freepik jury will place special focus on overall quality, creative coherence, and authenticity. We encourage you to submit resources that go beyond typical stock aesthetics and bring a distinctive point of view.
Product Universe accepts Vectors, Photos, AI, PSD Templates, and PSD Mockups.
Places accepts Photos only.
