- 06:33 — if you want to move a pan or you want to
- 07:29 — objects each one with one single access so basically what is doing these node
- 08:19 — perspective view here right then what I would do I would select the parent node
- 09:07 — out of nodes and shows your be better how Maya works behind the wood this is
- 10:12 — reason why I will show you later this is a transform node
- 11:15 — is basically having related to the orientation of Maya the global space the
- 12:43 — baked the animation but I left the import active on so I will switch this
- 14:13 — me hide the original camera when I select the camera head node till
- 16:11 — keyframes at the end and at the start of your keyframe selection so now I've
- 17:04 — you see you will see that the purple is they camera head node the one that we
- 19:10 — actually that's back to 100 if I was to create a camera head node on a scaled
- 20:11 — as it stands at the moment the camera had to doesn't keep track of rounds in
- 21:52 — happening here is that is basically not filtering for Euler rotation as Maya

- 02:22 — the camera that you want to apply the rig move a node to and then ctrl select
- 03:21 — as many notice I'm just going to isolate these rig move a node arrow this
- 04:25 — move manoda the move mode is in track
- 05:13 — for extent angle are at zero and that is
- 06:00 — below the zero what I do is to translate
- 07:36 — and animating all the other axis for you because it's an inverse kinematic so the
- 08:59 — not influence this over okay back to the move what you would typically do let's
- 09:53 — what I can do I've got my first keyframe here you can
- 10:58 — based on the track hint values I gave
- 12:21 — just gonna put the extent back in let's start like that and keyframe it at the
- 13:19 — to show you now is if I back go back to the move mode truck the truck mode let's
- 14:21 — down the ad should be down the at the custom attributes in the rig-move mode
- 15:50 — inclination related to the truck sorry the rail so these are 2 different angle
- 17:05 — line along the left axis what it does is basically with zero on the horizontal
- 18:39 — going through the gimbal so you probably want to either move the camera in this
- 19:26 — can be useful sometimes since we are in move mode truck at the moment I'm going
- 20:15 — I want the base to follow the other side
- 21:38 — back to the other side that option obviously only works when move mode
- 22:46 — say that that's about a feature is the silver is gonna be keeping track of the
- 24:02 — better what I mean so I'm going to detach the rig mover node from the
- 25:38 — on rotate as well and on row so remover select the node and then in rig mover
- 27:45 — alike a cash cow affordable X when they get imported and the rig move or get
- 31:22 — truck at the beginning at the end of the move and now the truck is basically
- 34:55 — it when it's gonna be imported into my you'll see you will have LW rail objects
- 36:26 — top of this one next so at the moment to change the distance of the tilt node
- 37:11 — measurement the rig move our node and the place is where to do that is from
- 38:10 — and hence the translate Y will be negative oh five in the rig mover node
- 39:00 — seems quite okay so from here I can then do what I want I can move the rail I can

- 02:52 — that you need in order to solve and so for velocity is acceleration and values
- 03:41 — node and what I want to do it's to first
- 04:27 — speed and acceleration based on what
- 05:24 — display icon in the time slider you can access to a playback speed menus or sub
- 06:12 — with that speed or actually hitting one
- 07:07 — the first thing that you want to do after you've selected a limit checker
- 07:56 — moment I'm using only the track because
- 08:42 — you will find under the limit checker
- 09:30 — set the velocity of box velocity of the
- 10:15 — like that so if the velocity of the
- 11:27 — motors so it's dirty as a safety measure so it's more like an
- 12:19 — you look down the channel box the input truck acceleration fps is 19 is 19 frame
- 13:11 — acceleration and deceleration issue that
- 14:04 — to specific basically specific to their own access so truck will have from zero
- 14:52 — compound to our velocity and
- 15:52 — velocities has been computed and acceleration has been computed too so I
- 16:38 — the rail so with one piece of we won the

- 21:01 — velocity rover or acceleration of the
- 22:05 — say take out 10 centimeters from truck trouble still a bit still a bit too fast
- 23:31 — would do in flair about velocities and acceleration per axis the only thing
- 24:24 — for truck red is position Green is the velocities blue is acceleration and what
- 25:09 — for I use more smooth it's blind so it
- 26:00 — they're mathematically speaking is there and the enemy checker node picks it up
- 27:12 — the tangent so I will hide them select it and buffer the queue buffer the curve
- 28:00 — so these values 1 9 1 meter 98 and the original value before the smooth was 1
- 28:49 — the acceleration and deceleration it's
- 29:41 — different mathematics behind the spline
- 30:28 — the viewport in Maya especially with
- 31:17 — check what access are giving you warnings through the limit check it out

- 02:31 — where that is and set up my move so here I
- 04:07 — pull so I'm now in a position where I can if I wish move on to create my first
- 04:54 — there so while still in carian control I'm going to move my track
- 05:57 — close to camera pan being zero in I'm looking there I'm
- 06:45 — again I'm going to move back in x a
- 07:37 — view just to make sure it does actually run the track is doing its own thing
- 08:43 — to store a position there now I have a nice curve move in
- 10:17 — shoot okay so I have that move the
- 11:19 — extend the camera there back along the track as it happens I don't have much
- 12:08 — now and if I back run that yes I'm getting close to the limit
- 12:57 — that so now we have 150 frame move and that frame that
- 14:00 — there so I have actually changed the curve of
- 14:47 — that number just as well but that is giving me a more curve more of a curve
- 15:55 — nice nearly straight line there and a nice curve there and this is suitable to
- 16:41 — will not change the curve if I have a a
- 17:29 — by changing my move frame rate if I
- 18:21 — experiment so now it's now 100 frame move uh sorry it's now a 240 frame move

- 02:49 — now now if there is an actual change in Direction let's move this out the way
- 03:34 — section and decreasing in speed and if I
- 04:19 — I can force it to put a spline through
- 05:13 — stop because it's changing direction it never if you run the move never quite
- 06:03 — percentages to zero so if I change that to zero and

- 04:24 — almost a corner here because it approaches this with a constant speed
- 05:11 — see that there is a very Sudden Change in speed for most of the axes then a
- 05:57 — Waypoint so in my cartisian Waypoint I
- 07:26 — the in the fairings menu is there is something called Curve reversal
- 08:49 — and then it overshoots it goes beyond it it will look nice and smooth but it may
- 09:36 — okay that's the point of curve reversal

- 06:20 — move side to
- 07:07 — down speed up a bit more speed up a bit
- 07:57 — run uh once I unlock it it's then free to move okay
- 08:45 — position it just goes to it it'll take my rotate to zero or I can tell it to go
- 09:48 — here on the rotate uh go to home I can access from
- 11:41 — okay uh as I said the menu changes so for example the track axis has different

- 24:55 — to copy waypoints if I want to copy uh Waypoint one to here I just type in one
- 26:12 — waypoints so the same Waypoint menu as
- 27:28 — going to that was just going to start that wasn't the actual move uh but my
- 28:26 — priority to cartisian axis that means it will run the move that's here rather
- 29:46 — it because I'm at the end it'll go 5 cm down but then during the move it'll

- 09:19 — is in the middle. And it says go to now. Because my go-to speed is still very
- 10:07 — store this. So to store it, I can either well all I've done is move my slider,
- 10:59 — uh method possible. Okay, I'm going to speed up my go-tos just so we don't
- 12:17 — it's in ready to shoot. So I press play and this is now the move running again.
- 13:19 — it'll completely ignore it. Okay. It won't try and move it. It'll just ignore

- 02:58 — obvious uh so I'm going to adjust my move even further
- 05:08 — cm okay so what I do uh I'm at the end of my move so I'm going to type here
- 06:17 — have seen that my focus didn't adjust to my focus uh earlier when I ran the move
- 08:11 — roll is set to relative which it can't do when it's not in Target tracking so
- 08:57 — two target positions because each key frame or Waypoint has its own Target
- 10:29 — created a key frame yet I'm going to create now so add a new Waypoint way

- 04:54 — there so while still in carian control I'm going to move my track
- 05:57 — close to camera pan being zero in I'm looking there I'm
- 06:45 — again I'm going to move back in x a
- 07:37 — view just to make sure it does actually run the track is doing its own thing
- 08:43 — to store a position there now I have a nice curve move in
- 10:17 — shoot okay so I have that move the
- 11:19 — extend the camera there back along the track as it happens I don't have much
- 12:08 — now and if I back run that yes I'm getting close to the limit
- 12:57 — that so now we have 150 frame move and that frame that
- 14:00 — there so I have actually changed the curve of
- 14:47 — that number just as well but that is giving me a more curve more of a curve
- 15:55 — nice nearly straight line there and a nice curve there and this is suitable to
- 16:41 — will not change the curve if I have a a
- 17:29 — by changing my move frame rate if I
- 18:21 — experiment so now it's now 100 frame move uh sorry it's now a 240 frame move

- 04:24 — almost a corner here because it approaches this with a constant speed
- 05:11 — see that there is a very Sudden Change in speed for most of the axes then a
- 05:57 — Waypoint so in my cartisian Waypoint I
- 07:26 — the in the fairings menu is there is something called Curve reversal
- 08:49 — and then it overshoots it goes beyond it it will look nice and smooth but it may
- 09:36 — okay that's the point of curve reversal
- 10:37 — to start off with a simple two-point move so for example if I remove my

- 05:34 — can use this slider okay this here allows you to move the axis it's like a
- 06:20 — move side to
- 07:07 — down speed up a bit more speed up a bit
- 07:57 — run uh once I unlock it it's then free to move okay
- 08:45 — position it just goes to it it'll take my rotate to zero or I can tell it to go
- 09:48 — here on the rotate uh go to home I can access from
- 11:41 — okay uh as I said the menu changes so for example the track axis has different

- 26:12 — waypoints so the same Waypoint menu as
- 27:28 — going to that was just going to start that wasn't the actual move uh but my
- 28:26 — priority to cartisian axis that means it will run the move that's here rather
- 29:46 — it because I'm at the end it'll go 5 cm down but then during the move it'll

- 14:59 — button each time it'll do a pre-roll and a post
- 16:06 — not going over position but it is going too fast over velocity and is going over
- 17:04 — okay these buttons here will affect the move either by slowing it down to 22
- 18:20 — slide uh or shift and that means that your passes will no longer match your
- 19:10 — speed okay last then next we have the
