    HI,

    Im having a very basic problem…

    I have a still picture of a man lying down, taken from 30ft at 90 degrees.
    Now I want to create a downward spiralling camera effect using Scale and Rotation…but I can’t seem to control the speed. The rotation happens too fast. I tried the graph editor but couldnt figure it out. Can someone please tell me , how to control rotation speed ?

    I believe you’re overthinking the problem. Speed for rotation is the same as speed for other properties- it’s a matter of how much distance (ie, how many degrees) your keyframes change over how many frames. To reduce the speed, either reduce how many degrees your rotation goes or space out the keyframes more.

    Using the graph editor is good to change the rate of speed (the acceleration). You can also use the Easy Ease keyframe assistants for simple, quick changes.
