like TargetCamera in 3ds, but its so cool, very TY

[@MaxonTrainingTeam]

You are welcome!

[@MichaelHsiu]

Very interesting! Would you be able to show a few examples how to use this camera rig?

[@MaxonTrainingTeam]

The cool thing about this rig is, that you only have to animate xyz positions of the camera and the target. This makes it super-easy to adjust the f-curves in the animation tracks, because they are pure x, y, and z.

[@JCShannon]

I always have my camera's aligned to a circle spline, then using a target, which I find the best for animation

[@SergeFX]

if only your animation is 360 product rotating

[@JCShannon]

@@SergeFX Not at all! So you can then move the circle left and right, up and down, increase and decrease the circumference for zoom etc.. I use it for a lots of situations. You can even have the circle vertical for all sorts of shots.. Super easy to use especially in conjuncture with GSG Signal tool.

Ill try this one out.. camera rig on a circle

[@MaxonTrainingTeam]

For these type of camera moves, I usually use a Null in the center of rotation as the parent of the camera and then rotate that to get the circular camera movement. It's just a preference, but I like that this is giving me a gizmo in the viewport.
