Hi all, i have never workd with xara Xtreme pro so my question might be odd to u:) is it posseble to make a picture from 2d to 3d?
i want to use this picture in a movie im making but it hase to be 3d and spinning.
i hope any of you have a tutorial for this
tnx alot!

Are you aware that you can get into trouble for using copyrighted material without permission?
its just a example -.-'
If you are wanting Homer's head to be 3D so it looks like he is turning around.
You will need to use a full featured 3D appliation and learn to use it's modeling tools to sculpt the shape.
It would not be easy to do without a lot of training and practice.
ZBrush would be an excellent choice for that type of modeling however it is an expensive program to buy. I do not think there is a trial version available.
Blender is a free 3D program but has a steep learning curve.
uhm k i got that program now but mannnnn that is HARD where to begin?/ i can choose from 500000000000000000000 stuff
k i found a example of what i want http://www.anatomyplanet.com/Asset.a...FQlrMAodR2pkXQ you see the pic of that brain spinning? thats what i want! for my movie im making i need a 3d brain i can work with flash pretty good but i just dont know how to get someting 3d:confused:
Which program do you have?
Do a google search for tutorials for that program.
Renderosity has tutorials on many 3D applictions and may be a good place to start.
That's why the link to the spinning brain costs 160Euros, £120 or $240 to purchase and probably still has commercial use limitations. Creating objects/drawings in 2D programs takes years of practice and skill. Creating a 3D object takes even longer.Quote:

So it's going to take 500000000000000000000 hours of work and 500000000000000000000 decisions to create it. And that's not counting the cost of the software required nor the cost of top of the range hardware.
In other words there's no easy way around it. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
PS What does "uhm k i got " mean?
Please try not to use text messaging jargon in your messages. We have people from all over the world on the forum, and a lot do not speak English natively. They can respond much more intelligently if they can understand what you are saying in the first place.
It is difficult for native speakers of English to understand text messaging jargon. It is even difficult for people that speak American English like me ;)
You can project photo images onto 3d surfaces using Google SketchUp. The basic program is free. Go take a look at their web site.
I created "mask-like images" using the photo projection method.
Here is a crude head with a photo mapped to it which came from Google 3D Warehouse (models are free to download).
Using the free version of Sketchup might at least get your project moving. You can download a free-to-use 3d brain for SketchUp here at Google SketchUp 3dWarehouse. It might take you a while to figure out how to animate & export a movie but I assure you it is far easier than most 3d programs. Watch the SketchUp movies and you'll be a master soon.

My english isent good. oke but if you look good on the site the only thing that cost 120-240$ is a brain for either school im talking about that little flash movie next to the big picture.Quote:

Here is how I do it.Quote:

1. I downloaded one of the models that Ross told you about.
2. I loaded the model into Sketchup 6 software, then I exported the model out of sketchup as an OBJ file.
3. I loaded the OBJ file into Vue 6 infinity software, then animated the model to spin one revolution on the Y axis.
4. I rendered the animation as an image sequence.
5. I created a cell animation using the image sequence with Motion artist software. You could use Xara Xtreme software to create an animated gif instead of the Flash file if desired.
2 easy. :)
mike baily U THE MAN! im gonna get those programs and do what u did TNX ALOT!
The video im making is for a CSS movie. i want this dude to be spinning arround 3d just like the brain, can that be done by this sketchup?

Go to the www.sketchup.com. They have a index to models specifically used by and for gamers.
hmmmm cant find anyting
Try here too http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/
Would the 3d forum be a better place for this thread? It does not really relate to Xpro does it?:)

Xara Xtreme offers one of the easiest ways to create really efficient Flash animations.
Quote:
Animated gifs are still a common form of animation used on the web. Used for banner advertisements, spinning buttons and character animation, animated gifs will be around for a long time yet.
The Xara Xtreme Frame Gallery allows you to create animations one frame at a time. It gives you complete control over every aspect of the animation from pauses between frames to the transparency of objects.
When exporting, Xara Xtreme is able to fully optimize animated gifs so they have as small a file size as possible, meaning you can create eye-catching animations without hindering the performance of your site.
I thought that I would have ago at making sure that this thread stayed in XXPro.
I did this initially with cross lines to make the grid but this proved too difficult with my lack of artistic skills, so I deleted them.
My attempt has some mistakes which I could easily rectify when I have time but all in all, I think that such a 3D wire could be done quite well without using a 3D application.
PS don't tell Remi :D
No problem... just asking...:)
