Also, where did u guys get the rules from: 10 sec for stillframe, copyright for music, etc....how come the one i read didn't say anything about this? could someone give me the link to the animation rule they got from please
It doesnt matter if anyone finds out- It's about honestey and integrity. Autodesk will be producing a DVD that goes to each team and linking to the winners on their website. Chances are someone will see it.

As far as the rules- What rules did you read- Go to www.usfirst.org go to Robotics Comp then Documents- then look for the Awards.pdf and go to page 17. Then dont stop reading till you finnish the entire section (page 24 I think) If you dont see anything on not using copyrighted music and the still frame at the beginning then read it again! If you still dont see it- ask anyone with common sence - how much trouble you can get in if you use copyrighted music in a published video/animation without permission.
