Naturalistic Camera Moves in Image Compositing

Richard Patterson

The absence of any camera movement in composited images often undermines the credibility of the composite or gives the images an awkward quality. To overcome this limitation a portable, computerized pan/tilt head capable of repeating pans, tilts, zooms and focus pulls with the accuracy required for image compositing has been developed. It can be operated in the same way as a conventional fluid head tripod, or it can be remotely controlled by a variety of means.
