I'm in charge of creating some new promos for a small network. The idea is to have a bunch of video screens, which could be flat planes, flying around, then coming together to form the sides and overall shape of some text. If you think about the xbox360 commercials where the games come together to form the console, same concept. I was wondering what would be the best way to handle this. I initially tried a tutorial called particle morph, where a set of particles inherited another set over time. Unfortunately, b/c i needed video screens, it didn't work, so i tried instancing. That however, turned out to be too inaccurate, as the screens just formed a general shape of text, rather than solid, detailed shape. Any help would be greatly appreciated!@
