If you're between 29 and 31 seconds and have already submitted, don't worry about it. I am only going to enforce this to the intent of the rule, not the letter of it.
That said, most (all?) editing software should have a timeline that lets you see how long your film is.
Apparently my editing program is not professional enough. It doesn't show the exact time. I'll be fine. I have to go with no titles though because my single-shot film is just that long.
Three entries so far! Keep 'em coming!
THIS IS AWESOME!!!! Um... I'm 12 so I need my parents to classify that its okay? Or something? And " need to scan and print something? I don't knowhow to do that? So can I like do it on paper and get my parents to sign it? Im so lost! But excited!So that might be the problem. HELP!
Print the release form onto paper and fill it out (with parental signature), then scan it onto the computer with a scanner and email the scanned page to bricksinmotionfilm(AT)gmail.com, with an @ sign in place of (AT).
How do i get a scanner? And the release form?

You buy one. You can find them at most office supply stores.
Ok Thanks! How much does it cost? Never mind, I have too many questions! 
I wish I could be a part of this so bad. I have a million ideas for this contest.
Ironically enough I'm too busy working on a large brickfilm project, and with school (and a possibly a new internship) starting it's going to be hard just finishing that. 
Best of luck to everyone.
Well the script for my current project still isn't done, so maybe I could attempt this in the mean time.
Quite tempting.
I will hopefully begin, or rather, continue with the animation next week.
So what do I put in the email I send and what do I put in the PM? Why would I do a PM if I could just send an email?

You email them the jpeg or pdf copy of the signed release form, and pm them the youtube or vimeo link of your entry.
Submitted my entry.
We have to have a permanent record of the release forms that we can access and search easily, but it's easier for judges to access the PM box for the purpose of judging. Hence the two-step process.
I'm animating my entry. 0.56 Seconds done. Like aboss 
While I understand that for judging Vimeo and YouTube uploads are easiest. Wouldn't providing the original video file be of much better quality for the DVD rather than attempting to download the compressed YouTube videos?

DVD's are already standard definition so the difference wouldn't be that noticeable.
We're not finalizing the DVD until the end of November; Doug will contact the entrants to acquire the highest quality version of the video for the DVD after the contest is over.
