  Spinning Coin

  Posted by Brian Smith on January 6, 2008 at 12:12 am

  Hey guys…. I was wondering if someone could tell me how to go about animating a coin falling from out of screen on to a floor, while spinning. Then as it loses momentum settles onto one side. I need it to maintain a realistic animation as if you spun a quarter on it’s edge. I tried keyframing, and that was a joke. (As I figured it would.) I’m thinking maybe xpresso or mograph, but I don’t know enough about either to really know where to begin.

  thanks guys!

  I don’t know if these will help but this is one way to spin a coin… (I don’t remember what the difference between 1 and 2 is 🙂
