    I am curious to see if anyone knows of a tutorial out there to create a “pop-up book” effect in after effects. I am seeing this trick on a lot of commercials now. The one that I saw lately is for the Sears book where the book opens up and this carnival unfolds like a pop-up book. I don’t have tivo so I can’t frame by frame it to try and work out how they do it.

    Check out Aharon’s COW Tut’s. He’s got a very apt z-scale tutorial that should do the trick.

    I just posted a news item about the studio who did that commercial:

    While it doesn’t give away any trade secrets, it does say they use …”unique blending of 2D photographs and 3D environments”…

    So you might play with animating your various axes and see what happens. I saw the ad the other day and thought it was a really cool effect.
