  • Camera Dolly expression – not working?

    Posted by Mio Tanaka on May 17, 2016 at 2:58 pm

    I want to do gliding the sky kind of camera dolly animation above a lot of objects.

    Then I used the expressions at the end of this post:

    However, it didn’t work as I expected. The camera won’t look at the POI correctly and the focus distance is wrong as well:

    Here’s the timeline:

    I was trying to figure out how to fix this, but failed. Could someobody tell me why it’s not working please?

    Here’s the project file (AE CC2015) in case there’s no sufficient information above:

    Thanks in advance.

    the layerspace transform should be this:

    fromWorld(toWorld(poi.position));

    instead of

    fromWorld(poi.toWorld(position));
