    Hi All

    Im a complete c4d newb and im having an issue, i took on a project due tomorrow which involves a camera travelling backwards panning left and right to view text and pics, i clicked the auto key frame feature and have my camera move from one end to the other over 600f, i set a null to track a curvy spline as the camera target.

    MY QUESTION,

    when the animation starts the camera accerates really slow up to speed and then slows down as it approaches the end position, i have to make 10 20sec clips that can be combined to one 3 minute clip seamlessly, so with the camera starting slow and slowing at the end it is messing me up, im used to ae and the time line here is alien to me.

    any advice on how to change the camera speed would really be appreciated or any other tips to make my life easier.

    thanks

    You just need to select the camera’s position keyframes in the TL and change their interpolation in the Attributes Manager from the default Spline type to Linear.
