    I think he talking about how the way the “camera” goes upward kind of, please don’t ask me I don’t know how to do that and plus Dave could you be a little bit nicer, he probably just wants to make an intro and just first started after effects

    Yeah I need to know how to do the camera move, i know how to do the scribbling and I’m just trying to remake an intro for someone else, I’ve only been using AE for 2 months and I’m pretty sure I have the gist of it but, still quite confused on the camera to null object or just camera in general.

    Just to set your terminology straight: A camera can pan right or pan left, zoom in or zoom out, tilt up or tilt down, and dolly in or dolly out (if it’s on a wheeled dolly). Those are the basic moves. The term pan is short for panorama – it has nothing to do with in or out moves.

    Don’t worry now I figured it out, thanks for all of the support I guess.

    Hey Dion, you should post for the community your solution – so others can learn from you!

    This doesn’t need to be done with cameras at all, I don’t think. I can see it as just keyframing the scale, rotation, and position, with a wiggle expression thrown in.

    The key is that the initial comp, that the text and “scribbling” and BG are in, is much larger than the final comp that this will be nested into. Then you just keyframe the animation!

    Dion –

    My post wasn’t meant as an attack – it was just meant to give you the standard camera moves in a nutshell, so that when you post in the future, others don’t jump all over you (yes Dave).

    Just FYI, this exact thing is an Andrew Kramer tutorial. I recommend learning the concepts and then adding your own twist as there are probably thousands of copies of this on Youtube now.
