Graph Editor....:(

Kyle's Help: Graph Editor

Following the lesson about camera, I sat down with my set trying to decide what to film. To make the camera ease in and ease out was causing me some trouble.

Kyle sat down with me and taught me the tools within the graph editor, and how the translate/rotate effects my camera movement. We also went over flattening and breaking tangents to make animating the camera easier. He also told me how to add frames and move them in order to create smooth easing in and out. This took around an hour of his time.

Edit: He has also taught me how to use buffer curves to edit the curve within the graph editor and flick between the two find which one works best. This allows me to slow down a camera movement, without spending time on key frames.
