After Effects Tutorial: How i Met Your Mother style intro (Part 1/2)

This was done pretty quickly, but you can get the idea of the different effects used to create something like this. You will want to tweak all of the settings to get that polished look, and to make it your own. But this is it in a nutshell.
Song = Jontey - No Matter

dude, i've tried this 1st part. but the movement of the camera is so excessive. not like yours, it move just a little. what could be wrong with mine? please help me

[NeverwaY]

@goldwincs Connect a different keyboard to your computer and see if that clears it up. Otherwise, i would say uninstall and reinstall. I dont troubleshoot this application, but this is what i would do.

[goldwincs]

@NeverwaY oww... thanks. anyway, can i have your file? your AEP file? i want to learn from your file.

[NeverwaY]

@goldwincs Sorry man, i never even saved that one. I will check through some of my backups and see if i can find the one from the original though. No promises though, seriously.
