    Posted by Kuljeet Singh on April 21, 2016 at 9:03 am

    hello,
    i’ve just create a camera layer, & few 3D shaper layers. TO create a zoom effect i just change the camera position.

    But problem is that, to create zoom effect, i’ve placed three keyframes having values, changing from 2459 to 760 to 757. but between 760 to 757, it does not simply goes from 757 to 758 to 759 & then 760. Instead of this it is changing from 757 to 630 first then changing to 760.
    please help to solve this weird issue.

    Sounds like you have a keyframe interpolation issue. Select all your keyframes, right-click and set to Linear to change this. Also, under preferences there is a place to set the default keyframe interpolation.

    Glad that fixed it. It would be a good idea to check out some of the videos on interpolation if you are going to be doing a lot of work in AE, it’s a pretty important concept to understand.

    yes, i’m focusing more on this these days. I’ve also tried Ease & Wizz scripts, which helps alot to create smoother animations.
