Transitioning Between Materials

[frankjrmi]

I have a room with "wall paper" on the walls, and I want to transition the walls from one paper to another over the course of 30 frames. I know I can create a mix texture and animate the "amount" slider to create a smooth dissolve. However, is there a way I can transition with shapes (like squares, circles, or a basic left-to-right wipe)? Here is a sample of what I'm hoping to be able to do: https://youtu.be/UWXl8dBn4uU?t=18s

Below are images of my scene:

Render your shape animation out as an image sequence and use it as a texture in the amount port of the mix material.

Hi frankjrmi,
the solution proposed by DinoMuhic is surely the best and flexible, an alternative could be to animate a c4d shader like gradient, spline, noise ecc. with he help of the auto baking shader function, but you could have some performance issues

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to animate between 3 different textures?

I know two ways.
1-Use two mix texture + three images.
or
2-Use two images+mix texture. Give key frames to image names when transition completed.

Thanks aoktar. I figured it out yesterday and got it to work perfectly.

Wouldn't it also be possible to use object buffers for the walls, and do the compositing in after effects?
