Handheld Camera Script

David Torno | 10/01- 01:53 AM

For those who want to shake things up a bit

Introducing a new script that creates an AE camera that not only has handheld motion, but can be easily adjusted to mimic a variety of camera motion effects like running, being on a gravel road or even being intoxicated to name a few.

The tutorials have been split into two major segments, “How To Install - Handheld Camera” covers the installation of this filter/script. It is very important that you view and follow this process before attempting to use the script. The other tutorial “How To Use The Script” helps you understand how the effect works and how it can be adjusted as well as some of it’s quirks you will run into.

The necessary files for this effect can be downloaded here:

Right click and “Save File As”
Mac users: DOWNLOAD MAC

Pc users: DOWNLOAD PC

I want extend a special thanks to the following individuals that gave input and help during the creation of this script.

Jeff Almasol http://www.redefinery.com

Looks cool- I can’t seem to get the links working though, responding 404.

I have moved the download files to another location, it seems that the links were not connecting for some reason. You should be able to get the files now. Make sure that you right click and save the file to download it.

4 Pre-Comped Solids make up each of the structures you see, add some coloured lights(I stuck with red, green and blue) and a funky camera script and voila!

Thanks

Sounds like you need to change the read/write permissions so you can save it. Unfortunately I am unfamiliar with how to do this on PC. With a Mac you simply right click on the application icon and choose “Get Info”, then change the permissions to “Read & Write\”, this will then allow you to save the file.

Wonderful script. Thank-you so much. Is there any possibility that this is available for AE7. Feel free to tell me to take a long walk off a short.....Again, many thanks.

The script works in CS3 and CS4 as long as the separate XYZ isn’t on by default. I haven’t tested it on AE7, but I will look into it.
