  Auto Bezier keyframes have corners, not curves?

  Posted by Jared Flynn on March 19, 2014 at 2:58 pm

  Hey all,

  I’ve got a simple 3-keyframe animation on the Point of Interest property of a camera in my scene, with the Interpolation method set to Auto Bezier.

  However, the animation is sharp and jerky. I looked into it, and for some reason my value graph looks like this:

  

  Note the keyframes at 0.00, 7.15, and 15.00. Any thoughts on why those other sharp corners are being generated around ~8.15 and ~14.15? I can’t seem to fix it to save my life.

  Thanks!

  So both the temporal and spatial settings are set to Auto Bezier and that is what your graph looks like?

  Hi Mark,

  That’s correct– and it’s completely reproduceable for me, too, definitely not an isolated incident.
