Wow! It was a thrill to go through all your fantastic #wtfiscoub submissions.

With so many pretenders, we had to up the stakes, and double the prize! Meet ten finalists of our first Coub community contest: our First Grand 🏆 winner is @LeCouber!

🧵👇🏼

1/🧵@LeCouber asked us to wait a bit before posting their video (a brilliant remix of our old promotional clip).

2/🧵On top of the $5000 prize, we're providing the author with an additional stipend for post-production. We will proudly present this video in it’s full glory soon!

3/🧵For the second prize, $500, we're awarding two coubers:

🥈Vadim Klimenok
🥈Raiaa Videohive

4/🧵 Last but not least, seven creators shared our $150 "bronze:"

🥉Thename Theothername
🥉Konstantin Kvadra
🥉MrStefan
🥉Blase
🥉Andrey Markov
🥉Mikhail Sosnovsky
🥉Oleksandr Bortnovskyi

5/🧵 Again, we received way too many kickass vids. So, the "special mention" bonus $100 award goes to 17 more creators! See the follow-up post for their names. Coub representatives will reach out to all the winners soon.

🤘🏿🔥🎸
