Re: Autodesk Posted this Year's Rules
i have allways wondered about the final cut legality too because i used vegas last year and i cannot see anyware in the rules that we cannot use it
it doesnt specifically say we can but it doesnt say we cant either the video post works good without the need to use other stuff but all your scenes have to be in the same file to use which is why we didnt do it last year (partly because we didnt know how and partly becasue we had like 5 diffent files) Last edited by legomaster3945 : 07-01-2008 at 22:55. Reason: spelling :/ |

Re: Autodesk Posted this Year's Rules
Other software has never really been limited. With the exception of using 3DS Max. (By the way Maya is an Autodesk Product not a 3DS Max Product, 3DS MAX is only one piece of software not a product line) The mention of exporting the final movie from MAX appears to me to be their control for the CODEC. Different software may produce a file that is not fully compatible (even with similar settings) With the hundreds of entries they want to eliminate potential issues that effect their ability to deliver your animation to your regional (and will slow down the entire process for them). So if you export someplace else, you take a chance--- But you can finish your submission anywhere you want and then render the submission in MAX by adding it as an animated Background to an empty scene (then rerender the proper settings). This will ensure you give them what they ask for.
Whether or not they come out with Combustion, you should be able to edit and add audio how ever you need to (AVID, FCP, Premiere, etc). The main reason for limiting to MAX for the 3D is becuase they are giving it to us, they are sponsoring the competition, and as they stated its a level playing field. Maya for instance is much beter for highend animations (Character motion and such) and the render has different strengths, so the limit to MAX makes it all even (not based on a "richer" or longer established team being able to affort more expensive software) Anyway... Have at it. Prep image maps, add audio, and render render render!!! Last edited by stevek : 08-01-2008 at 01:14. |

Re: Autodesk Posted this Year's Rules
You're right with the regional award (thank heaven for that), but only half right with the peer judging of the national. Official judges choose five national AVA nominees, and all students registered on the FIRSTBase site have the ability to vote for their favorite of the five. Majority vote wins the award.
