Thank you very much. You really solve my leap between a credible and a messy animation… :)

May the force be with you!

Hey Sean,

I’ve got some things happening tonight. But, maybe you could upload to Vimeo or something and I could take a look at it tomorrow.

If you’ve been messing around with that layer a lot, I might try removing all the keyframes and starting over (shouldn’t be too bad if you’ve only got three) My first guess without seeing it is that there could be some weird easing going on which might cause the shake. But, that’s just a guess at this point. Let me know…

i’m trying to use this technique for a simple camera movement yet I’m having trouble. My “camera movement” null has three keyframes: from keyframe 1 to keyframe 2 is a simple slight zoom in z space. The camera follows this no problem. When i add my third keyframe which is a pan to the right, it causes a weird shake to happen in between keyframes 1 and 2. Any help is appreciated.

It sure beats flying the cameras around by hand. A much more professional look in my opinion.
