    I am looking for some suggestions for an animation with dollar bills blowing across the screen. I want something that would look like what a leaf blower would do to a pile of money.

    I tried using some photos of curled up bills, but it didn’t look very good. I am hoping to not only get the bills to blow across the screen, but to bend and roll a bit as they go across.

    Thanks.

    If you create movie of a bill as a layer that is wrapped around a cylinder or sphere and roll the thing around (you’ll need two surfaces of the bill, of course) you can use the movie as a particle source. But they will always be flat objects.

    Thanks David. I think that will work. Should be close enough for this project.

    iStock photo has a bunch of flying money shots that you may be interested in. Just type flying money and you will get a bunch to choose from.
