[Request] Addition to Flightpath script

Pixero · 18 Aug 2009, 07:31

I would like to have another option to the Flightpath script.
I'd like to be able to pick a point where the camera should be positioned and a path that it should look at.
For now I made a big circle for the eye and a duplicate very tiny curve for the position.
Not perfect so this addition would be welcome.

I think that can be done. Thanks for the suggestion

Meanwhile, can't you just create a couple of scenes along with CameraControls ? Set the first scene, then use the Pan tool in CameraControls to get the next view set up, then add the second scene. If needed, you can also use the Transition Time editor in PageUtilities to set the transition time between scenes.

For this perticular job its too late. It worked out the way I described above but was a bit more troublesome.
I have developed a way of animating with smooth speedups and slowdowns where your flightpath script has its part and I need to use the same technique for the whole shot for it too match the scene before. I still like to see this addition though.
Here is a description of my technique: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=180&t=20173#p167962
