What the contest asks entrants to do
According to Higgsfield, the contest asks entrants to take a recognizable viral trend and make it their own. Entrants pick a viral video format, recreate it on Higgsfield and add something new: a character, a situation, a joke or an unexpected twist. The idea, the setup, the camera move and an everyday setting can all be remade, but the company stresses that entrants should recreate the format, not the original footage.
Each entry is one video of up to 60 seconds, in any aspect ratio. Content must be SFW and PG-13. Higgsfield lists sexual content, violence against real individuals, political or religious statements and propaganda, misinformation, and illegal, defamatory or rights-violating content as not allowed.
All AI images and video must be generated on Higgsfield, inside the contest project, during the contest period. Open community templates and presets are allowed. Third-party characters, brands, logos, music, footage or artwork are barred unless the entrant has the rights, and an entry with unauthorized third-party IP is disqualified at any stage, prizes included.
Who can enter and how
Entrants must be adults, meaning 18 or the age of majority in their country if it is higher. They must be members of the Higgsfield Discord community and hold a Higgsfield account in good standing, linked to their Discord account in the #verification channel. Each person gets one entry, which can be replaced with a new submission any time before the deadline.
The process has four steps:
- Join the Higgsfield Discord and link your account in #verification.
- Click Apply, using the button under the contest announcement in Discord or the contest page. The form asks for a contact email, an optional profile and a checkbox to accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
- Higgsfield then creates a contest project in Cinema Studio, where all generations for the entry must be made.
- Click Submit with a title, the trend you recreated and a short description, mentioning any outside editing.
External editors can be used for cuts, titles, transitions and color correction, as long as the final edit is uploaded back into the project. Audio can be AI-generated from any tool, an original recording, licensed music and sounds, or absent. Cloning or imitating a real person's voice is against the rules, and real people may appear only with their permission, though entrants can appear themselves.
After submission, the contest project becomes public, including the prompt, settings and uploaded references, until the results. Higgsfield therefore advises against uploading someone else's original video as a reference. Entrants keep the rights to their work, and Higgsfield may show it in the contest gallery, the results and its channels, with credit.
Prizes, timeline and voting
The 200,000-credit pool is split as follows: first place receives 50,000 credits, second place 32,000 and third place 20,000. Places four to ten, seven winners in total, receive 14,000 credits each. Credits are added within 24 hours after results are announced, stay valid for 90 days, and cannot be transferred or exchanged for money. One person can win one prize, and if an entry is disqualified, the next entry by votes moves up. Winners also get the Contest Winner role in Discord and a mention in #hall-of-fame, and they and standout entrants may be invited to the Higgsfield Creative Partner Program. Higgsfield says that invitation is optional and not promised.
The schedule, in UTC:
- Contest starts: October 7, 2026
- Submission deadline: October 14, 5:00 PM
- Voting opens: October 15, 5:00 PM
- Voting closes: October 17, 5:00 PM
- Winners announced: October 19, 5:00 PM, in #updates and in a live stream
The Higgsfield team first reviews every entry against the rules. Entries that pass go into a gallery on the Higgsfield website, where the community votes for 48 hours. Anyone with an active paid Higgsfield subscription can vote, without needing to link Discord. Voters can back as many entries as they like, once per entry, but not their own. Entrants may ask friends to vote, while bots, fake accounts, bought votes and vote manipulation are prohibited. Final places are set by valid votes after review.
What it means for creators
Entering does not require a paid plan, according to the rules, only an account in good standing linked to Discord. Voting does require a paid subscription. After the deadline, submission and generation in contest projects close, and Higgsfield says there is no window to fix an entry, so entrants should submit their final version before the cutoff.
