hi. i want to share a book. it was made to be printed, but yesterday i decided to make a virtual version.
sometime ago i had seen Alice in wonderland in bl.uk (the british library), in a section called turning the pages, and i have the idea to do something like that.
well, here is:
http://media.putfile.com/tan-liviana
it cotains four tales that i wrotte and pictures that i drawn.
are in spanish, but this is not important, i want you see how moho can be used to things like that too.
(note: this video hasn't play buttom -its in quicktime vr format- if you want to move it, you must drug the mouse on the video to the left or the right)

well. this is a little, how can I say it... burocratic??
first, I design the book in coreldraw 11, this is a version to print, the book is a little gift to some people.
then I made a jpg from each page. I put this jpg in wings3d, where I create a cube. then on one face of the cube I put the page one and, on the other face, I put the page two. (the cube is thin, as a paper). so, if there are 12 pages, will be six cubes.
in wings i divide the cube in several parts... this is to have points to put the bones after.
uf... then, in moho I take each page and i put the bones to them, to give it the turning page effect. (i only made one skeleton, and i move it, then i duplicate it several times and I put in each page, in this way were faster).
THEn... when it were all ok, I animated the book, page by page to the end, and in the end i turn the book to return to the start.
with this animation ready, i render in a avi.
Then, the avi were opened with corel photopaint 11, and I exported to "quicktime vr" format.
as quicktime vr is a format in wich the user move the video, this give a effect of have a 3d book wich you can control.
That's all.
sorry by my poor poor poor english... I hope to be useful.
thanks for your feedback!
