2D – not fluid issue
I have a little bit of a problem that is most likely easy to solve. I have a NULL attached to a camera – it pulls away in Z space from a poster. On the way to its second position, some of transparency from the edge of the background shows for a split second. No problem, so between the two keyframes, I put another keyframe that will pull the camera over to the left, so as the little section of transparency does not show through. It works, but the animation now looks very contrived and jarring. I figured I would try EASY EASE and still it looks weird. If I was going from point A to B, but I need some tweaking inbetween so it looks right, how can I ensure it is fluid on the path?

I’d use The Smoother, it smooths out keyframes and often illiminates middle ones but retains the basic motion. It needs experimenting with but yields pretty good results.

I’d get in and tweak the three dimensional spatial Beziers of the path taken by the camera/null so the camera travels along an elegantly curved path.
Better yet, fix the glitch in your poster artwork so you don’t have to compensate by shifting your camera.bogiesan
