turning book pages
Are there any good tutorials out there that show how to set up something like this?
I tried using a bend deformer on a NURBS plane, and that looked okay, but it wasn't free-flowing like the Shrek pages (obviously).
Am I looking at having to just do manual point animation to get that free-flowing page turn look, or are there better ways of doing it?

Another option is to do a blend shape transition with in-between morph targets.

I don't mind it being a little tedious if it comes out looking good. I just didn't want it to be tedious if there was an easier way that I wasn't aware of.
