Hello,

I v been trying to get that "peeling" bend effect.
www.composeme.com/how/fuse.mov (http://www.composeme.com/how/fuse.mov)
I tought that could be very simple : I tried to manage that with a "bend transform" but no good result.
I tought about pathdeform or maybe mograph has something to help.
or a pose 2 pose morph ?

Any ideas ?
Thnks in advance.

Simple enough with the standard Bend Deformer. Just make sure you have enough subdivisions in the object. Just keyframe the angle and strength attributes.

Another way, if you wanted more control per keyframe, is to use a siimple IK bone chain running the length of the board.
