Create a Null layer, and search in the effects panel “Seperate XYZ” and apply it to the null. Now parent the Camera layer to the Null layer and use the X Y Z sliders applied to the Null layer.

if youre willing to shell out a little bit of money for about 3 hours or more of video training, this guy who does the C44D tutorials on lynda.com does a pretty good job on all of the basics and he does a nice job of making it interesting and not bland.

Card wipe is a pretty good effect, adjusting the position and rotation jitter.

Here’s a link to a good tutorial:

With Particular its that option and you just select random frame-still.

Thank you for the advice.

I tried selecting all the points and connected it to a plane object that was big enough to encompass all of the points, and while it is moving, it’s heavily distorting the cloth object.

Am I going about something the wrong way here?

Trapcode Particlar.

You use the turbulence fields and also the motion blur of the particles also. if you go to

this will show you the basics and you can just go from there adjusting the motion blur of the particles, etc…

Yeah I hit the calculate…the fps turns to 29. The render is 29.97 though.
