  1. What I meant by the list was it would all go to Lego, for example. I don't see much point in paying for it.

    Oh so the DVD's would be for free, because that's the only way you could do it. But lets not get over our heads here, we should really focus on the project and after we're done we could do something like a in the making but I don't think it's a good idea to put it on DVD's and giving them to people.

  2. We can't do that, we don't own BIONICLE. DVD's would be completely illegal unless we were giving it out free, and even then it may be illegal.

     

    Not necessarily free. Blank DVDs cost about $1 so all we would charge would be that. Or you could send us a blank DVD and we would send it back with the movie on it.

    EDIT: miy, if we were to sell them, I would not allow any profit to the movie makers at all. It would all go to...

     

    1) Lego

    2) BZPower

    or 3) Charitable organizations

     

    Again, we'd check with Lego FIRST!!! I don't want to get into a legal problem with them at all!

    But Lego would have to agree with that profit as well and it getting the same amount as a fan site and charitable organizations would not be to convincing to them. Lets not forget though we're not professionals, if you got a diploma for animation then you could call yourself a professional. I just don't think Lego is going to agree to this.

     

  3. @Skully, yeah, but if we give it for free we lose a lot of money.

    We're not making money though.

    Anyway I don't like the idea of selling DVD's of the project because...

    1. It's illegal to make money off of a company that's not yours

    2. Where are you going to sell them?

    I don't think it's a good idea even if it is for free. If you give it to someone they might try to sell it and then we could get in some serious trouble. Also we're not going to get permission from Lego, even if you offer them half of the profit, most likely they're aren't going to make a deal with a unofficial company, or give them permission to use there products in something that you're giving out. It would be cool if they would let us but it's not going to happen.
