Saving cameras and adjusting coordinates
In this movie, I'll demonstrate how to numerically adjust camera coordinates. Which will allow you to precisely position and rotate the camera in 3D space. Now the thing to bear in mind is everything's going to have an opposite reaction, when you're working with the camera. So, in other words, if you move in a positive direction along the Z-axis, you're moving away from the object, so it becomes smaller. If you move in a negative direction along the Z-axis, you'll actually move closer to the object, and it will become larger. If you apply a positive rotation to the camera, then you're going to pitch the camera up, which is going to make the object appear to pitch in the opposite direction. So, it takes a little bit of getting used to. But with some experience, it makes a lot of sense. So let me show you how that works. What we're going to do is we're going to take the ball that I've been working on. And we're going to pitch the entire scene forward like so, so that we're looking down…
