Image Jitter in After Effects
Ok so I’m working with a fake 3d model of a computer. What I mean by fake is, it’s a shape layer with some effects, layered on top of a duplicate shape layer over and over and over to give it a little depth to it.
I’m nesting that 3d computer layer comp into my main comp.
In the original “3d computer layer comp”, I put a still image of our website so it looks like the computer has a screen.
Then in the main comp, I’m animating my camera in 3D space, and whenever the camera zooms into the computer, there are 3 frames where the still image of our website pops in front of the computer shape layers.
I’ve tried everything from turning on all motion blur to completely deleting the camera and remaking it.
What’s happening here?
Screen shots for clarification.
Ignore the website going off the sides of the computer, it was just for testing purposes

Did you take a look at your screen Position and Anchor Point key frames. It looks like a stray key frame rather than a glitch. It also doesn’t look like the problem is with the camera.

Hey Lewis, thanks for responding.
Sadly, yes, I’ve checked all my key frames on every layer that I have in all comps, nothing else in the project has any keyframes other then the camera and the null object that is moving the camera.

I actually just figured out what was causing the issue 2 minutes ago. For some reason it was jittering because I had Depth of Field turned on in the camera options. As soon as I turned it off, it stopped doing that. I’m going to just take the depth of field with a slight gaussian blur on an adjustment layer. I will try you’re suggestion though. See if it works. Thanks for the advice!
