Well....

Thanks for the narrating comment, the narrator by the way is the man from the jeep commercials, he did it for FREE. As for not being worthy our vid crew was amazed we won because of the lack of animation, but as I pointed out to them the idea was solid, narrating was good and the maybe the 10 sec of video was very high quality compared to others. The chain on the robot and the tubs were hard from what I've heard. And like it said, Expect the Un-expected, how often do you see complete animation in any kind of serious video? Autodesk in my opinion is one little tool in many. For example the video and sound that was in the video came from tons of hours and hard work. I think the award has risen the bar, now teams must think of things like cinematography, live video, GOOD narrating, etc. Not just 30 sec. of animation that looks cool. Any way that is one of my points of view. I'm still kind of shocked we won it too!
