Material morphing

by Bernard Peh

Introduction
This tutorial has nothing to do with morpher modifier or morpher material. Instead, it attempts to show how a material can be changed or animated over a period of time using the powerful features of the volume select modifier. This method is very useful (or already been used intensively) in the CG/Animation industry. We shall do a simple tutorial to illustrate the idea: the spread of a red dot over a plane.
