Maybe there could be some critter running across the screen or something... Maybe a crack developing in the ground as the camera pans over it. Either way, if you reduced the amount of distance the camera travels by half, I think that would slow it down, and make the transition from the synthetic camera to the moving one a little more seamless.<br><br>Since the shot is about the dude looking out into the distance, maybe you don't need the runup at all, and it could start right on his feet. <br><br>My other thought, is that I think there's almost too much bobble back and forth in the re-introduced camera move. It almost makes you a little sea sick. :) Since there's going to be such a cool environment out there, it would be nice to have that be the focus of the shot... Maybe you could totally stabilize the footage, and place it on a card, then the camera can slowly dolly forward, past the guy, so in the end end we're just looking at the environment?<br><br>Just some ideas :) Feel free to take em or leave em :)Kert Gartnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09893240285912095749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3253894747457171726.post-90604355291807166332009-06-03T18:06:55.880-05:002009-06-03T18:06:55.880-05:00Cool! Thanks Kert. The long run up at the beginnin...Cool! Thanks Kert. The long run up at the beginning is because I was going to have ground detail, rocks, cracks, grass, etc. The camera would be starting pretty close to the ground. You're right though, it could be a bit shorter.<br><br>I think overall it could be shorter. Right now we're at 719 frames. It'd be nice to keep it to less than 600.<br><br>As for the motion at the end, I think you're right. I'll minimize it. I do like the part where Tom looks left and the camera has the delayed following to see what he's seeing. Once I restabilize and track I'll post a new version.<br><br>Let me know if anything else comes up. Thanks for the input!Matthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17012504201663947453noreply@blogger.com
