Realistic 3D Book Pages Animation

I need a short, realistic 3D animation that begins with a closed hard-cover book on a neutral surface, then slowly opens and flips through every one of its 300 pages before the cover closes again. The motion and look must feel believable enough that a viewer forgets it is CGI.

Visual tone
• Photorealistic materials, I will send cover photo and pdf of book.
• Consistent, cinematic lighting—soft key, gentle fill, and practical reflections—so the textures and tiny page bends read clearly.

Animation specifics
• Smooth page-turn mechanics: each of the 300 pages must separate, curve, and settle naturally (no mass page skips or looping cheats).
• Proper page thickness and slight translucency so faint show-through occurs when a page hovers in light.
• Timing should feel calm and deliberate; think “moment of discovery,” not a fast flip.

Deliverables
1. Final 4K UHD video (MP4)
2. Source project files
3. Exported clean Alembic/FBX file of the animated book for possible reuse.
4. One still render at highest resolution for promotion.

Acceptance criteria
• Every page clearly visible in at least one frame.
• No geometry intersections or texture flickers on close inspection.
• Lighting and color consistent from first frame to last.
• Delivered files open error-free on a standard workstation.
- No AI attempts

Let me know which software and render engine you prefer, your expected turnaround, and any asset needs from my side (cover design, page artwork, etc.). I’m ready to start as soon as I find the right artist.
