    Hi there

    Basically im trying to use the auto orient camera script from nabscripts.com. it looks like it could be really good but i cant get it to work properly and the errors all come up in french so its kind of hard to tell!

    ive got 6 layers in my comp, and then i add 7 markers to the first layer to say when the camera should be pointing and then i try and run the script but some error comes up, ive tried to bring a camera in and put the markers on that layer but still get an error…..how exactly are you meant to set it up?

    if anyone can help that’d be great,

    thanks in advance!

    Hi

    I’ve used it a couple of times now and it’s a good one.

    Make sure that you follow the help instructions.

    1.befor you import your pictures make them all the same size in Photoshop.

    2.Import your pictures=>create a new comp=> distribute all layers in 3d space (manually or via script)

    3.Set random keyframes for y+z rotation for all layers or use an expression like this=>
    seedRandom(index,1);
    random(0,35)

    4.In your case add 7 markers to the first layer

    5.select all layers in the timeline!!!!!!!

    6.run the script and it should work like a charm 😉
