"why can't you animate your camera just by scrubbing along the animation and moving the camera where it should be and making a keyframe" Well the way the camera rotates, it doesn't pivot, and because I'm a newb I don't know how to keep it "nailed" down while rotating. Also, my camera movements are trying to be slightly handheld, and I find it easier to create this effect when I have it parented to a head. "That will be a contribution of your exotic and potentially pioneering idea, so thanks." I wouldn't call a camera movement an exotic and potentially pioneering idea, but in the midst of a larger scale project, I take it as a compliment. Thanks.
