After Effects Tutorial - Cameras & Camera Rigging |
|
In July 2021, YouTube set all unlisted videos uploaded before 2017 to private (unless the channel owner had opted out). In the weeks leading up to this change, Archive Team archived many pre-2017 unlisted YouTube videos. If this video was uploaded before 2017 and has gone private, there is a chance that a 360p archived version can be viewed on archive.org via the site's Wayback Machine as follows: 1. Enter the YouTube URL in the Wayback Machine form or click on the following link: https://web.archive.org/web/20210000000000*/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGPjpJxVu-g 2. Right-click on a blue entry in July in the calendar. 3. Click 'Copy link address'. 4. Paste the copied link address into your web browser's address bar and press enter.
Description: Finally a tutorial, yay! Decided to start off with the most requested topic, which is controlling cameras in After Effects. I've included two ways to do so: a simpler and a more advanced version, just to suit everyone's needs and give new perspectives on the whole program. Any suggestions on improving future tutorials? Don't hesitate to comment them, I do want to make my tutorials as understandable as possible! Also, if you want to suggest a specific tutorial topic, fill this form and tell me: http://bit.ly/1bs8d9w ----- Here are all the files for the project: http://bit.ly/1KGZyN7 And here's the expression (also included as a text file in the link above). Remember to include the ";" thingies at the end of each line! rad = thisComp.layer("Null 4").effect("Radius")("Slider"); ang = thisComp.layer("Null 4").effect("Angle")("Angle"); posx = rad*Math.cos(degreesToRadians(ang)); posz = rad*Math.sin(degreesToRadians(ang)); posy = thisComp.layer("Null 4").effect("Y")("Slider"); [posx,posy,posz'> + thisComp.layer("Null 4").transform.position; NOTE: You obviously might need to reconnect the expression parts in case you're inserting it into your own project and haven't used the exact same names as I did. You can use this and link everything yourself: rad = [INSERT_RADIUS_EFFECT'>; ang = [INSERT_ANGLE_EFFECT'>; posx = rad*Math.cos(degreesToRadians(ang)); posz = rad*Math.sin(degreesToRadians(ang)); posy = [INSERT_Y-COORDINATE_EFFECT'>; [posx,posy,posz'> + [INSERT_POSITION_OF_CENTER_NULL'>; You can follow me here: Twitter: https://twitter.com/theacleps Tumblr: http://acleps.tumblr.com/ (Secondary YT Channel): https://www.youtube.com/user/TheAcleps2
