Creator contest
The Iman Gadzhi × Higgsfield model, and our draft version.
What Higgsfield and Iman did
Higgsfield ran it with Iman from 16 to 24 Oct 2026: $50,000 cash, 10 × $5,000. Five prizes went to the most Instagram engagement and five to the most creative entries, picked by Iman. The brief was a short film, ad, trailer, poster or meme about his investment, with Iman as the lead, made on Higgsfield. To enter, people posted on Instagram with #HiggsfieldxIman, tagged both accounts, and submitted the link in Discord. Entrants had to be 18+, solo or a team. (announcement · all entries)

Step by step
- Moran approves the pool, hashtag, brief and dates.
- The lawyer reads the rules once: a skill contest, no purchase needed, a rules page, and tax forms for winners.
- Build the rules page, the entry form and a kit: 10 clips of Moran, the logo, 3 example entries and the hooks that work.
- Announce it on Moran's Instagram and Stories, the email list, Trybe creators and our Upwork editors.
- During the contest, repost the best entries to Stories daily and log every entry in the sheet.
- Judge on the closing day plus 7. Engagement comes from the screenshots; Moran and Kasia make the creative picks.
- Pay: Moran pays the winners. Kasia never handles payments.
- Keep the best: offer winners paid work through Trybe, and reuse the best entries as retargeting ads (the rules must allow it).
- Report: entries, views, cost per 1,000 views, and calls booked.
Never: invented clients, earnings or returns, or an investment offer. Every entry says #contest or #ad, because a prize counts as payment. AI-made content is labelled as AI.
