After Effects In this tutorial, we'll learn how to create smooth camera animations within after effect 3D environment.
In order to do that, we'll use the keyframe velocity feature, allowing us to make any type of animation smoother, more fluid, with great control over the acceleration.
The techniques demonstrated in the first part of this tutorial are of great use for any type of animation, they are particularly useful to control the position, rotation and scale properties.
In the second part, we'll see how to create a 3D technologic environment, with the help of Plexus 2 (required to set up the interconnection effects displayed in the demo)
- Demonstration of the keyframe velocity principle
- Application of this technique on 3 simple animations
- Create damping using 2 keyframes only
- Application of this technique on camera animation
- Creating a 3D technologic style scene colored using Plexus 2
finally english version ..
thanks for tutorial )
thank you dominic~
Hey m
love your tutorials but i can not seem to purchase or view them,
this has been like this for a week
Is it going to be sorted soon
Hey m
Aimez vos tutoriaux, mais je n'arrive pas à acheter ou à visualiser,
cela a été comme ça pendant une semaine
Est-ce que ça va être triés bientôt

Hi Matt, thanks so much for doing this. Such a useful tutorial and I can't believe you got such a fluid cam movement without a massive rig of nulls! Super chouette!
Hey please make the tutorial available to download. Its easier than streaming for those with slow internet :)
Please allow for download, the watch the tutorial link doesn't work. The download projects is fine.
I'm on mac using safari 10.8.5
Hello, I can´t buy the tutorial.
What can I do?
Something happened on Adobe CC wherein I try to connect my Camera Null to the Text layer and nothing happens. (Indeed, it gives me 2 options -pressing shift or option- and neither work). Is there something I'm missing here?
Cheers, Friend
Grasias por tus tutoriales Matt
tutorial link doesn't work
Error message - ArgumentError Lnvalid parameter passed to method

I cannot watch the tutorial because it's buffering all the time.
Could I download the video?
Hey Matt,
thanks for great tutorial! As always pleasure to watch and listen.
I think that in order to get rid of that bug, you could also delete disk cash or drop it totally or purge memory from within AE (Edit - Purge - All Memory). Of course it might not help this time, but it works for me, usually.
Cheers,

Don't know if this was a fix on this site, or a change elsewhere - but this video is now playing for me : Good :
Hello Mike, we had issues with our main streaming server last friday, but it's now fixed! Sorry for the inconvenience.
This is a remarkable tutorial. thorough and no-nonsense. I've been using AE on the front lines for 20yrs and I STILL learned a lot. Thank you. I can only think that there HAS to be a way to build a GUI plugin or script that makes this process less repetitive — something that "knows when to make values positive or negative... something that allows you to "affect all intermediate keyframes on all axes"... "affect start and end keyframes only"... smooth incoming fo all selected keyframes"... speed up accleration out of all selected keyframes"... etc etc etc
Just my 2¢
GREAT tutorials, all of them.
Thanks.
There's a great script here: http://www.mtmograph.com/motion/ but it only 'seems' to affect influence, not incoming and outgoing velocities (certainly not negative values.
I'd be keen to hear your opinions (it's not my script. I just bought it though). It's good.
Another question if I may?
You show two other projects you're working on using these principles (the cellphone etc). You're obviously working in a FAR larger 3D "space" to get the sense of scale and movement. Would you ever consider doing an advanced (paid) tutorial showing how you manage a space so large, considering how... unfriendly... AE seems to be when having to pull back and look at the whole of a giant construction. It's easy in a 3D app, like Cinema, but so much harder in AE. Assuming each of your scene resolves (like on the train in your first example) has to be an HD frame size, this must be a HUGE virtual stage.
Now that I understand how you manage the motion of the camera, I would be very happy to pay to learn about how you go about planning for, and managing, such large and complicated scenes.
Many thanks for all your hard work.
thanks for great tutorial. but I have a question.. when you make smooth camera works, based on what did you put velocity number? for example, you put x axis incoming velocity 500, y axis incoming 200.
It's my favourite effect on Adobe AE ;)
its very wonderful tutorial really appreciate your effort i really learn lot of things. it will be very help full if you make tutorial of "which you have shown us on 1:27 video thanks in advance.
