Camera Movement Animation

Hi,

I recently discovered a software called “Mental Canvas” where artists can draw in any style and move the “canvas” into different positions as the camera moves and films the drawings. This creates camera movement and appears as an animation.

This video shows Mental Canvas camera’s movent which aids in the animation process.

This video shows have Mental Canvas works, with its layer setup and how the camera moves between the layers as scenes for the movement and animation.

I was curious to know if this type of camera movement, layer set up, and canvas proportions were possible for Krita in any way.

Thank you for your time!

Thank you for the link! I have seen the tutorial before, but when I attempt to implement it, I always end up confused.

I was thinking that Krita itself could help with the camera movement part by the artist guiding the camera through the animation and allowing Krita to record the movements and export the final. This would allow for a layer set up of different “scenes” that Krita can record, and it still allows for certain scenes to be recorded in a still, if the animation in that scene has multiple movement using Krita’s Onion Skinning Feature such as facial expressions, and then the scene changes to a different scene, such as what the character is looking at that caused the change in expression.

I think this feature can be a great choice for animators.
