3D Camera movement

Before totally going crazy with the influx of random replies in both of these areas (they’re very open ended in regards to options) try reading the AE help file all the way through, or check the manual index for null objects and parenting expressions. once you get a decent understanding through trial and error on non-consequential practice projects of your own, the tutorial’s will make a lot more sense. This is a big program, take your time…

I was trying some of the tutorials and got stuck at one point in this one…

On step 7 i cant find the hue property they’re talking about, probably in a different spot since i am using a newer version. Also, when I RAM preview something, it doesn’t preview the entire timeline… any idea why?

[Danny Princz]

in ae7 it is under effects->color correction
