| How
to integrate 3D and 2D animation
elements with Toonz 3D Export
plug-in. |
 |
Available
for both Softimage|XSI and Softimage|3D
First developed for Softimage|3D
version 3.8 and 3.9, the plug-in
is also available for Softimage|XSI
versions: 1.5.x/2.0.x/3.0.
A simple work-flow for 2D and
3d animators cooperation
Toonz 3D Export allows 2D animators
to work together with 3D animators,
with no need to master 3D animation.
They plan togehter the scene,
but while 2D people create the
2D animation, it's up to 3D
operators to create the 3D scene.
One-command
export tool
You only need to select the
Toonz Export button in Softimage|XSI
or Softimage|3D to generate
an xsheet file that you can
load in Toonz Xsheet module.
The xsheet file will contain
the selected 3D objects position
as pegbar information concerning
E/W, N/S and Field values.
Easy-to-use system to integrate
2D with 3D
The xsheet file produced by
the plug-in is a standard Toonz
xsheet where you can load Toonz
animated levels, full color
images and animation, and 3D
rendered images. You have simply
to assign the right pegbar to
an animated level to automatically
"link" it to the related
3D position.
Fast feedback of the result
No need to work in post-production,
or wait for 3D renderings to
check the results. Once the
3D environment and objects are
rendered and loaded as animated
levels in Xsheet, the Toonz
2D fast preview allows you to
perform quick animation tests.
