    I am doing a project for school using AE CS3, just making a simple title-esque screen with particle, 3d layers, and thats about it.

    I have a camera setup and linked to a null layer, but for whatever reason during one part of my animation, it seems to drift. I’ve deleted and re-animated, but it still shifts, even when the two key’s are exactly the same data-wise.

    Im not sure if there is something silly and easy, or perhaps something that I jut didnt do right, but either way im open to help and suggestions!

    If you need more info, project files, or screenshots, just let me know!

    thanks again!

    enjoy in Joy

    Right-click and change the keyframes to linear interpolation.

    You can change the default spatial interpolation to linear in Preferences > General > “Default Spatial Interpolation to Linear” (it’s the 4th checkbox down the list). I like to do this because it gives me more predictable motion, I can then use my pen tool to go into any motion path and add bezier curves or additional points.
