Introduction

This is the result we'll create, a virtual camera moving forward past the title and flowers toward the distant lake, with a realistic perspective. Let's get started. Hello, welcome back to the complete Adobe After Effects series from Cerdas Inovasi Digital. After having a 3D layer, it's time to add a camera. The camera in After Effects mimics a real camera, with a lens, position, and point of interest. Create a composition named 3D Camera.

Step 1: Multi-layer Scene

Place the cloudy lake footage as the background with a scale of 150% at Z1200. Add the blue flower footage with a scale of 40 on the left, Z0, and the text exploration at Z-300. Make all layers 3D.

Step 2: Camera Layer

Open layer, new, camera. Select type to node camera and preset 35mm. Zoom and angle of view adjust automatically. Click OK. A camera layer appears in the timeline. Press P. There is position, the camera location, and point of interest, the point the camera is looking at. Select the orbit round cursor tool in the toolbar and drag in the viewer.

Step 3: Orbit Around Cursor Tool

The camera rotates around the point of interest, so we see the scene from the side. The perspective changes, with the near layers moving further away than the far layers. Drag back to the original direction.

Step 4: Pan Camera

Pan under cursor tool moves the camera and the point of interest simultaneously, like a camera on a rail moving sideways. Change X position and X point of interest to 1100. The entire scene appears to shift with parallax, then revert back to 960. At second 0, click stop-up position of the camera.

Step 5: Dolly Forward

At second 6, change Z position from minus 1866 to minus 900. Select both keyframes and press F9. The camera moves forward with a smooth start and end.

Step 6: Preview

Rotate the preview. The text and flowers enlarge faster than the lake in the distance. Exactly like a real camera moving within the space. This is the advantage of 3D camera over just scaling a layer.

Done!

Done. We have created a camera with a lens preset, understood position and point of interest, used orbit and pan, and animated the dolly forward. In the next episode, we will create a camera with a null object. Need a promotional video, logo animation, motion graphics for social media, or visual effects for short films.
