Re: FLASH: 3D Vector Animations?

[Eric DeJesus]

I don't know which program exactly, but I personally use Strata or FormZ,

you can pretty much use any 3D program that exports to vector. Create the

animation sequence, export to vector format, import it in Flash to create a

frame-by-frame animation of the 3D object. I usually do some editing on the

vector files using Illustrator before I import in Flash. A simple example

is the 3D spinning box I created in the http://www.spyplane.com site.
