Camera Angle aligning perfect in 3D space
So this is one of the walls i personally have with AE 7.0 Sometimes i want to have a bunch of stuff floating in 3D space and i want the camera to bounce around to each one but when it lands “infront” of text or graphic or what ever i have I spend so much time tweaking it just to make it look like it’s dead on straight with the graphic/text. Now I can do this with one object no sweat. I would just work backwards. Have the camera position straight on which it’ll do as default add the plain of text which is straight also as defualt and then make my random camera move out reverse that idea and i got what i want but i can only achieve it on one move i want to do this like 10 different moves that bounce from graphic/text to graphic/text but land perfectly straight each time even though the objects are scattered randomy in AE 3D space. Is there a math formula i can plug into the camera positions or a button or option i click to have it align with a particular layer in 3D space.

I’d click on Dan Ebbert’s head (main page) then scroll down to “Building the World’s Greatest Cameraman” and go to the last section, “—pan, tilt, focus, and zoom—“, he does what you want, methinks. It’s just a matter of changing keyframes on a slider to match the layer number (once Dan’s handy-dandy expressions are in place)if I remember correctly. Check it out.
