Camera Path Tutorial - Cinema 4D - IDigitalUniverse

Learn how to make a camera follow a custom path that you draw yourself. This is basically another way of animating camera movement. It has its uses and also some disadvantages so do not discard any other methods, This is simple another method that may come in handy when need.

Note : the technique can be done with any spline under the splines menu. Its also works on closed splines, its not limited to open splines.

@shelz321 Use a different path-drawing tool, like Bezier or Cubic.

@shelz321 Use a B-Spline , Alkima or mess around with the rotation of points when using a spline. :)

[MAD100007]

F10, lol

[shelz321]

Is there any way to smooth out the camera movement across the spline using this technique?

Cheers

[EnragedArts]

This is awesome but how do I change where the camera faces, rather then facing along the spline, maybe, follow the spline but focus it's angle onto a certain point? Please help.
