🌊 THE FIRST RTTO CREATOR COMPETITION IS NOW LIVE 🌊

Welcome to the very first RTTO Creator Competition inside the Underwater Creator Academy.

Theme:“Stories Beneath the Surface”

This competition is built around underwater storytelling — the moments, encounters, emotions and experiences that make us feel connected to the ocean.

We want to see your creativity.

That could mean:• Wildlife encounters• Cinematic underwater moments• Emotional storytelling• Conservation imagery• Adventure• Abstract or artistic interpretations• Human connection with the ocean

There are intentionally very few creative restrictions. We want to leave space for your creativity to flow.
