softbody tutorial, preferably with AVI video

Hi,

i’m trying to animate a sheet of paper. The paper is a 10x10 mesh. The basic idea is to animate the mesh by manipulating a few vertices in the sheet, and let the softbody feature handle the rest. However, I’m not having any luck seeing the softbody effect. Are there any tutorials, preferably with video (so I can see all the steps)?

I’m a relative newbie to Blender, but have a bit of background in CG and have already modelled the bending of the sheet of paper successfully in Java.

Thank you,
Eric.
