In this lesson we'll learn how to create and animate cameras.
Here is the scene we'll use.
Open Create and choose Cameras>Camera.
Select the camera.
In the scene menu go to Panels>Look Through Selected.
You should now be able to see through the camera.
Select Camera1 in the Outliner. You should see the camera's Channel Box open.
In the Channel Box select all of the attributes, right-click and choose Lock Selected. You cannot operate the camera now. Now right-click and choose Unlock Selected.
Go to Animation Preferences in the lower right-hand corner and set the Playback and Animation to 128.
Go to frame 1. Hit the S key to set a keyframe. Go to frame 120 and dolly around and set another keyframe. Always make sure the camera is selected in the Outliner. Play the animation.
