I think he means the theme for the animation competition.

Re: Whats the animation prompt, has it been released yet?
 

yeah, knowing the theme is kinda important when doing an animation...

Re: Whats the animation prompt, has it been released yet?
 

Yea I have been looking for it too

Re: Whats the animation prompt, has it been released yet?
 

I've been searching Autodesk for the past hour and can't find anything. Anybody find something that I missed?

Re: Whats the animation prompt, has it been released yet?
 

Just make an animation now, and then do the narration after you know the theme. Seemed to work last year.... :D

Apparently Autodesk has not released the criteria yet. Their web site (http://firstbasefrc.autodesk.com/?nd=competition) says "The criteria for the 2008 Autodesk Design Competition will be available in January 2008." and
nothing further. I have just used their "feedback" link
(http://firstbasefrc.autodesk.com/?nd=form__1) to ask when they'll release the criteria. I suggest you send them a polite inquiry too.

Last year started-off the same way. If I recall correctly, it was several days after kickoff until the criteria were published.

"The criteria for the 2008 Autodesk Design Competition will be available on January 7, 2008."

So check back on the 7th at http://firstbasefrc.autodesk.com/?nd=competition to find out the theme.

Good luck everyone.

Ahh still have to wait another day. Any Idea on what time it will be released? Thanks

Re: Whats the animation prompt, has it been released yet?
 

It should be 3 oclock.

My math teacher in High School said 3 was the universal estimate. So if you want us to estimate the time- 3PM!
