The video contest consists of five categories: Nature, City, Sport and Travel, plus a Creative category, with entrants encouraged to "curate a visual story to showcase your creative skills and extraordinary visual effects". The photo contest consists of four categories: Nature, Architecture, Fun and Sport.

The winners will be announced on March 20, 2019. To find out more about the competition, and to enter, head to the 2018 Skypixel Aerial Photo & Video Contest website. Good luck!
