Adobe Photoshop, the perennial staple for graphics editing, has teamed up once again with our friends at Cut & Paste to present "See What's Possible." The challenge invites designers, photographers, animators and graphics aficionados of all stripe to submit an animation or motion graphic video no more than 15-seconds in length and based around the idea "Photoshop: See What's Possible." A panel of "prestigious judges" will pick the best five, who will all receive a licensed copy of the Adobe Creative Suite 3 Master Collection. Of those five, one will be voted the Grand Prize Winner, receiving $20,000 and exposure in numerous Adobe corporate marketing materials and programs.
Submissions will be accepted through 15 March 2008, and the winner will be announced on 4 April 2008. See some current entries on the competition website, where you'll also find complete rules and registration information.

Main title sequences for films have always held a very special place in my heart. From "The Good the Bad and The Ugly" (pictured below) to "City Slickers" and "XXX: State of the Union," title sequences have played an important role in setting a stylistic tone for a movie, or they're just there to totally blow your mind.
