    hello,

    please click on the link for the example 🙂

    https://fifthwallproductions.com/test2.htm

    when the camara goes into the picture (at which time it switches to the camera inside the pre-comp of that picture) there’s the noticible jump in perspective. the couple on the chair is larger than the frame before which is using that comps camera. I am assuming that its something to do with the camera’s and especially when it switches from one camera to the other.

    I’ve been sitting here messing with the camera setting but i can’t get it to a point where the 2 frames match.
    any suggestions?

    I would freeze frame the first frame of the precomp with the camera move and then when it’s time let it start playing don’t try to match the frames…

    Not exactly, instead of trying to match 2 comps together, just eleminate the first one and free the second one to start soon but animate later.

    hmm..i’m not sure how to make that work. here’s how my project is structured (see the link for snap shot)

    – main comp has the main photo album with the indivual pages as pre-comps. this has the 1st camera that moves around the album while it opens up than zooms into the picture
    – indivual page pre-comp has the PSD files also as a pre-comp
    – the picture/PSD pre-comp has the camera that i use once it zooms in to the picture

    so with this said/shown, how can i do what your trying to tell me to do? maybe the whole structure of my projct is wacky…

    thanks for the help!
