Thanks guys,

I'll try to explain more clearly.
What I'm trying to achieve is: I have a 2D logo for a university in jpg, pic. pict, etc. formats. I want to make it into a 3D object and spin it around, light it from behind, do camera tracks around it etc. Can I open this in directly into Carrara and extrude it on the z axis, if so how? or do I need to do something else first?

I don't have Illustrator but I do have photoshop CS, FCP, Motion and Graphics Converter. Do I need anything else besides Carrara?
Grateful for any help you can give.
Steve
