Hi everyone. I'm very new to animation (a few weeks). I have anime studio pro 9.5 and am enjoying it very much. I've also found a lot of great tutorials and webinars.

I have a couple of questions - I'm trying to make an animated movie of a children's book I wrote. I'd like to have some text pages, where there is little or no animation, just the text, and an audio of my voice reading the words. I'm not sure how I go from the text page to an animated page.

Also, is there a way that I can make an animation of pages turning?

Thanks for any help you can give me. ~ Sabina

welcome to AS!!

whilst I'm sure you can make AS do this, there are much easier ways. Most of the serious users don't only use AS - it's just one tool in the toolbag. A very useful addition is a video editor / compositor. A program such as Adobe premiere (even premiere elements) has text titling and a page peel transition as built-in tools.

so what I'd do is use AS where it's "best" - animation. I'd have several different AS files, each making one "scene", then stitch the rendered output together in premiere - where I'd also do those neat transitions and text.

Thanks for the welcome and the great advice! I will check out some other programs to use together with AS. Thanks again. ~ Sabina
