    A local band has asked me to do a lyric video similar to the one posted above. My problem lies in that i am unsure bout how to go about doing the camera movement. I thought i could do it in after effects by using the camera control, but it doesnt look the same. Any help with how i would create the camera movement would be greatly appreciated, I am comfortable with the text and layers and manipulating that, however adding the camera moves is where my problem is.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated being that i am stuck for now.

    Thanks!
    Rob

    Few ways to do that, but I think the easiest would be to use the Free Sure Target from Video CoPilot. That’s a link to the tutorials, which contain the free plugin. Check out the tutorials, in particular the Sure Target 2, cause it covers the updated features.

    Thanks! I downloaded the plugin and then read on the comments that it doesnt work with A E 2015. Any other plugins that do similar movements? Or perhaps i should try and find an older copy of AE?

    Can’t think of something that does that type of movement, other than just using the camera tool, moving to every text build and adding a bit of wiggle to the camera position.

    I think with CC, you can get a copy of CS6, you might just try that.
