    Hey guys,
    Long time C4D user, long time watcher of the forum but, first time poster.
    So, I have this scene, the camera is moving around an object and constantly focused on a target, so rotation and position are being affected.
    What I would like to do is animate words in AE so it looks like its a part of the scene.
    NOW, the problem is that no position or rotation data is being imported into the scene when I extract the data from cineware (in AE).

    BUT, when I manually change the position and rotation data of the camera in C4D, it imports fine and everything works, but I just hate animating the camera like that, I usually do align to spline.
    I hope that makes sense! Do you guys have any ideas???
    THANKS SO MUCH!

    UPDATE, found this workaround:
    Select the Camera, open the timeline, go to Functions > Bake Object.

    The issue I have is that I would like it not to be a static movement incase I would like to change the camera later on and have to do the copy paste crap all over again.

    Still looking for ideas!
