I don’t know about you my friends, but each time I’m thinking about using After Effects camera I get the shivers. It’s good for panning and zooming, but once you start to make a more classy and smooth motion, or you want to sex it up a bit with some curves you get into trouble. You need to keep track of zoom, point of interest, position, orientation and rotation keyframes all at once. We should be very grateful for Separate Dimensions feature in After Effects CS4, but it does not solve all the problems.
In this tutorial I will show you a technique that is widely used in camera animation by many artists that work in 3D Studio Max, Cinema 4D, or any other 3d application. I hope it will open your eyes on the subject of camera animation, and that you’ll start making your own more complex rigs. Good luck. Enjoy the tutorial.
And for those of you who don’t have time to build the rig each time you need to use it here’s a handy script that will set up the camera and the rig for you. Enjoy!

I love the concept. I’m definitely going to use this in the future, but I’m wondering why you had so many extra steps?
You made extra nulls for each of the three parameters when in fact you could control all of them from just one null.
Heck, since you linked all of those to another null (the controlling null), you could have skipped making the first null anyways and just linked the x, y, and z rotation directly from the camera to the expression controls in the controlling null.
Am I just being crazy because I can’t see the need for the extra nulls?
Jerzy Drozda Jr
17. Nov, 2009
You’re doubts are totally understandable. You could even have only one null, but the point is to learn how the rigs work. It’s just a general rule of building camera rigs to have as many “layers of animation” as possible. That way it is way more flexible, easy to change and build upon.
Jeff Murchison
17. Nov, 2009
Whatever works and whatever helps people to learn.
In any case, it worked well for me, it actually prompted me to open up After Effects and play around.
In any case, keep up the good work and keep the great tutorials coming.

The main reason you need a null is to force AE to calculate rotation in the order Y, X ,Z (Heading, Pitch, Bank) instead of the standard (only to Adobe!) X, Y, Z. The simplest rig I use is one null for Y rotation and position, with the child camera then doing the X and Z rotation.

It works along with Sure Target very nicely, if the object following the targets is the CamControls null layer. Enjoy.

Thanks Maltaannnon,
very well explained tutorial – finaly a good solution for Ae´s messed up Camera navigation. But do you think its possible to build a Cameracrane inside AE with this technique? Everytime I try to imagine how this could work my brain starts to hurt.
One thing for shure is that you need some IK´s for such a setup. Then some nulls where the anchor point is offset maybee (for the connectionpoints o f the arms from the crane)….I don´t know, any suggestions are very welcome…I am gonna start to mess around a little with AE and tell you guys then…
Jerzy Drozda Jr
18. Nov, 2009
I don’t think IK would be necessary in this case. It does happen with real cranes, but that’s rather a limitation than a feature. You don’t need AE to constrain you from flipping the camera upside down – you can simply control yourself. See my point?
Tom Hauville
18. Nov, 2009
very cool — a much more thorough means to do a trick that I use sometimes, although it never occurred to me that I should do it on separate nulls, which of course gives more precise control of animating…
it does occur to me, however, that a script to set up this entire rig would be very popular indeed…………….. ;)

18. Nov, 2009
Thank you for doing this, I have been searching for tutorials in how to better use a camera. My hack techniques have been on the wrong side of lame.I didn’t know you could “daisy chain” parenting controls like that.
I don’t think it’s cool of Rob to be high-jackin your site to promote his agenda. Even if he has something to offer, it just lacks class, unless he cleared it with you first.
Jerzy Drozda Jr

We’re all friends in the community and we help each other out as much as we can. If Rob thinks this article can bring him a few more sales, than I’m really happy. We all put a lot of time, work and heart to produce training dvds and other resources so if I can indirectly help Rob sell a few more copies of his training – I’m glad.

18. Nov, 2009
Great, clear steps! Always cool to check your tutorials!
One question involving cameras and motion blur: Why is it that during a quick movement of the camera I will have motion blur for the objects but NOT for the shadow they cast?
If my question is not clear I can send a frame grab.
Is there a workaround to this or is it a glitch?
thanx again for the sense of community
john
Jerzy Drozda Jr
18. Nov, 2009
I haven’t seen that problem before, but I can imagine why that happens. I’d say it’s a glitch. The only solution I can think of at this time is CC Force Motion Blur on the comp.
James

comp the entire footage then use reelsmart motion blur, works better.

This is really amazing and so usefull! I was waiting for a new video tutorial from you for a long time and this one is so good it makes up for all the time you left us without new tuts. I will always use this camera set up from now on in all my AE projects.
I missed out a few live shows but the ones I saw were really constructive and fun! I hope to take part in one of those soon!

[...] Maltaannon.com shows how to create a simple camera rig in after effects. This is actually a simple concept that can be transposed to any application to get finer control of animated objects, by splitting out specific attributes to individual controller hierarchies. Yes indeed, one controller for one job. [...]

Wow. I’ve always been so weary of the camera and used other, horrible ways to “cheat” it. Thank you so much for this. This just took me to another level.
Johan Malmsten
20. Nov, 2009
Nice and interesting as always but… (there’s always a but, isn’t it ;) )
I do fail to understand why the intermediate null-layers are needed? When I make a cam-control-null I just parent the camera to it and get the exact same controls in the x,y,z-rotations of the null. No scripting or extra expression-controls required.
Though I did think it was nice to get the distance-adjustment control.
And another point to make is that track & zoom are two very different things. To track or dolly is to change the position of the camera. To zoom is to change the field of view. It might be nitpicking, I know. But it’s a pet peeve of mine this is, not based really on relevance.
And as a sort of answer to illd. Not too long ago I tried building a virtual prototype Motion Control Rig using AE. Complete with a camera mounted to the end of it. It was actually not all that hard to set it up, once I figured out how to overcome the nasty rotation-distortions of parenting solids together (the secret: route the parenting through intermediate nulls). I could mail you a copy of the project file if you want.
You could probably just skip the solids part if you want though. For me it’s more of a guide if and when I get around to learning the stuff needed to build a physical computercontrolled robot arm with absolute repeatability in all axies…
As to why build a virtual crane? Well, I guess Illd and I are interested in the implications of the restrictions of a camera-crane. To make it more real and “cinematic” you know. ;)
Again. Love the show. Keep at it!
Jerzy Drozda Jr
20. Nov, 2009
Hey Johan. I instantly knew it was you when I saw the length and the first words of your comment. He he. As always, you have a good point. In the end everything adds up to a matter of preferences and the type of work you’re doing.
The point if this tutorial was to make my viewers aware of the fact that there is something they can do to make it easier for them to animate their cameras. As you can tell from the comments, some just got aware of the concept itself.
Not claiming this is the only correct rig, or that it is physically correct at all. Simply saying that it works. Everything else is irrelevant.
As for the nulls – it’s just a habit I got out of flash development (nesting MCs) and 3D camera rigs. I don’t even think if I need all the nulls in this case. I simply create them, because I’d rather have more “layers of animation” at my fingertips when I need them than run into some problems.
As for the zoom – you’re of course correct, but (there’s always a but, isn’t it) the point here was to take the zoom parameter into account when calculating the starting point of the camera. You can still change and animate the zoom and the track parameter separately and the results are as expected. Tracking changes the position of the camera, and zoom changes the field of view. It works much better that way. By default in AE when you change the zoom parameter you have to reposition your camera if you want to keep your objects in the render area. With this rig this problem is solved.
Again – it’s a matter or preferences and requirements for a given task. In 3d I used to have a few camera rigs designed to do different things.
Thanks for you comment. I am going to rerecord this tutorial (or add something to it) to avoid further questions, and give you all something extra, that I already have prepared.
Happy AfterEffecting.
Jon
20. Nov, 2009
Hmmm, now if there was an easy way to hook up the focal distance so the object the camera is pointing at will be in focus. I tried out your tut and had to keyframe the focal distance. Not like that is a bid thing, but rigging the FD is a bit over my head.

Awesome Camera rig. I expanded on it a bit so I have both movement and rotation n all axis, and put it into its own project which I can now drag into a new project every time I need a camera rig (which is almost all the time)
I also created a simple 3d text or shape extruder preset. combining both gave me this:
http://whitecrestentertainment.com/deleteme/3d-test2/player.html
New project – add camera rig – add EPS logo – Add floor – apply extruder preset – add lights – move camera.
How simple is that! GREAT JOB!

Great Tutorial!!!, Jerzy. How did you come up with this? I would not come up with this idea in a million years, or maybe if I had a free time with AE I could. Too bad that I have to do so many other things and not enough time to play with AE, which I think is one of the best programs out there.
Dziękuję bardzo.

Thanks so much for your camera tutorial, it provides so much more control!
The one problem I’m running into is that for my zoom property if I go above 364 the image will flop and start zooming outwards. Any ideas? It happens when trying to zoom though both a Form and Particular layer.
Thanks!
Jerzy Drozda Jr
02. Dec, 2009
This is because your tracking the camera behind the master null (CamControls). You should never go behind that point, since it’s the center of the universe from the Camera point of view. You can move the null instead if you need.

The JeDi of Ae :D
Thank you so much!
I’m always asking myself if anyone from the Adobe development Team or product managers are watchin stuff like yours.
I mean, it’s no secret that Ae lacks of so many things that may be accomplished trough math, but thats not the way of user friendliness as the Ae camera in its “natural” setup is definetly NOT.
Let precomping 3D comps and non working motion blur (see rendertime killer CC Force M-Blur) be another story.
My opinion (and i’m not sorry for writing that here): it’s a shame for the most sold motion graphics app ever, which already had a very long timespan to improve workflows, but still remain unchanged now for years!!
every major update/upgrade is a little pain in the ass, because you can feel that they always forget (or lets say ignore) features that people request already for years.
My all time favourite fo the most useless tool/feature/option, which i’m sure that it took a while to develop (instead of concentrating on the important stuff): Brainstorm!
Hell, it’s useless like not having a brain!
Michael Coleman? Are you reading all this?

Hi there. Great stuff. Just a begginer here, but still would like to know how to render the shadow on the fly, because when i change the value for the rotation for example the shdow disapears and only reapers when the value is final, or if you prefer when the mouse button is relesead.
Thanks

Hi.
When i tried the tutorial at home i had a different order of camercontrol-nulls. NOT linking from CAMERA to BANK then to PITCH and then to HEADING and on to CONTROLS.
And it gave a very weird behaviour. The camera started to tumble a lot. like the different automatically calculated keyframes got wrong. I rebuild the tutorial in your order and it worked fine.
Do you have any idea why this is?
Maybe it can help me understand the basics of ae.
Thanks. And by the way: Great Tutorial.
Me as a cameraman in real life always bothered that i could not control the ae-camera. That is gone now.
Thanks.

where was this tutorial months ago?!?!?!? I was animating a camera flying thru a 3D city in AE, and I had to create some crazy keyframes, make expressions then convert the expression to keyframes, then go back in and animate those expression keyframes!!! ugh, it was a nightmare! I saw something similar to this on the Hollywood Camera work training dvd’s, but not as versatile as this method. Maltaannon, while this may have been the simplest expressions I have seen you use, this is probably the most useful for AE users everywhere. Thank you.
John G.
20. Dec, 2009
Great tutorial. I used to have a rig. I like this better, so it has been replaced. :) Question. The camera’s auto-orient needs to be turned off, right? Wasn’t sure about that part. I typically turn that off, because I know it causes problems down the line.
Max
21. Dec, 2009
Wow…. amazing timing… I was testing out for my next project and just could not figure out how to let the camera spin around an object…
Thanks so much for this tutorial!
I will post as soon as it is finished…
Just maybe a few questions I might get hints for…
I will be using footage I shot on a spinning plate, so that the green bg and the camera stay in place, but the actor spins in its axis…
In AE I want to spin the camera around this layer using your tutorial, forceing the layer to allways (transform – auto orientate – orient towards camera) look at the camera… that makes the entire thing seem like the camera is really orbeting around a 3d person.
what about using dof in such a case… keeping the focus point at the person… or controlling the focus point…
any idea.. on how to easier control it?

Beautiful and easy. I have question though.
I’m using ccSphere (inside) with bigger radius for background (like trapcode horizon) and on its rotation values i’m using this expression : lookAt(thisComp.activeCamera.position, position)[0].
With this setup, i’m not rotating sphere when banking, pitching or heading.
Tried with linkin
c=thisComp.layer(“Camera 1″)
c.toWorld(c.position) for position
and
c=thisComp.layer(“Camera 1″)
c.toWorld(c.orientation)
for orientation of a null, and then in ccsphere changed from camera to null positions. but it does not give me desired result.
Problem is (way I see it) is in parenting. Do you, or anybody else knows solution for this problem. Thnx for everything that you’ve done already.

19. Jan, 2010
Haya, Thanks a lot, realy made some sense in animating my cheecky camera.
BUT… When I tried to mimik your moves it didnt work for me. I have a problem with the heading.
Managed to create correct zooming and pitch but, when I add a keyframe to the heading and give it a new rotation value, it moves my camera in an angle so it actually goes below my “floor” and then up again…
Could it be because I didnt put my camera correctly somehow? What am I doing wrong? :-(
Thanks.
Jerzy Drozda Jr
19. Jan, 2010
It’s all fine. The camera “orbits” around the CamControls null layer, which by default sits just a tiny bit above the floor, so when you animate the Heading it’s only natural to go below the floor at some point. I believe it even happens in the tutorial itself. Anyway… just to make sure check your Rotation-Parameter links and the parenting.
Jerzy Drozda Jr
19. Jan, 2010
Ah. Sorry. My bad. You must have got the parenting wrong. The heading is for “looking around left-right”, the Pitch is for controlling “looking down on” the object, so you must have confused the two. I’m sure you can figure it out.
Ziv
19. Jan, 2010
OK.. Got it !!
Problem was not the parenting, but the fact that I used only one null set as camrig. By doing so whenever I tilted it (for pitch) the rotation path also tilted, making it rotatre akwardly.
So Anyways, lots of thanks.

Maltaanon-
Great little rig. I don’t know why more of us don’t see things as clearly as you do. Duh. Rig your camera like you would in 3D. Brilliant solution to camera woes.
I took your approach and added a ‘pan’ and ‘pedestal’ for x and y movement. Used the ‘point’ expression controller, set a var for the axis on each and set the second value to ‘value[x]‘ so it only controls one axis.
Just have to zero out the point controller before setting up the hierarchy.
Again I find myself standing on the shoulders of giants.
If you have a more graceful solution, I would love to see and update to this rig, time permitting.
Thank you for your efforts, they are useful to all and show us new ways to think about a program we may take for granted from time to time.

By the way, perhaps you can help me with one thing…im new to this world and i saw that when you moove the cursor in the time line, left and right, the image also mooves, but here, i can moove the “nail” left and right in the time line and nothing happens, just when i release the mouse button…then i have a “jump” and is very hard to see when i twist any parameter in a effect or plug in or anything…i dont see the effect until i release the mouse…its my computer? (amd phenom 4 cores 2gb ram) or is some general settings in after effects?
TNX AGAIN!!!!

Drunk a betrayal to their own experiences there, he said: “hey! We are all men, Burongyia!”
So their clothes to the **** husband, to send their out of the house. Middle of the night, drunkard sober, and got up and gave his wife a mouth, his wife asked, puzzled: “What are you doing hit me ah!”
Alcoholic rage, said: “I fucking Anyway, it up, our house and lived in a cottage!”
