Hello, I'm on vacation and currently working on a small video where I can test my small abilities in such plugins as krakatoa, rayfire, fumefx. Actually I've almost completed it, but before I render it, I want to ask you about camera movement. I have some problems with it in my past videos. What's wrong, what should I change? I will change the music and add sounds after render.

At 40 seconds, a ship gets hit and explodes. As it starts to explode it obviously comes to an instant stop. It wouldn't stop moving, it just explode along the initial vector.

I assume it's the preview mode, but the shots (beams??) seem to move awfully slow for energy beams. The explosions seem slow too. And l'm guessing that's because of the preview mode not running at full frame rate.

Amras,

if I won't find any more suitable music, I'll leave this.
Rigel, yes, about the ship which is stopping before explosion - I have some strange difficulties with PhysX plugin - things that should work aren't working on my computer.. may be windows reinstall will help, but I don't have repair disc.

Well, the preview is running on full 30 fps frame rate, the beams speed are made specifically low to achieve the effect .. um, like in the Star Trek Nemesis, where Enterprise shoots on the Scimitar.

Thank you all!
