Re: Expression for camera pos to link to other comp by David Hicks on May 9, 2008 at 4:13:23 pm
In a nutshell...I have camera A in comp 1, and camera B in comp 2. I go to comp 2 camera's position and alt-click the stopwatch to pull up the expression window and pickwhip.
Here's where I get lost. How do I pickwhip to another comp? I've only done it before if items are in the same comp.

Dan, not sure if my response posted so here it is again.
Here's my basic setup...
Camera A in Comp 1, and Camera B in Comp 2. I need Cam B to have same x,y,z pos as Cam A.
I go to Comp 2, Cam B, and alt-click stopwatch to pull up expression window. I hold pickwhip but cannot link to Comp A. I've only pickwhipped in the same comp before.
I'm hoping this is easy and I'm just not seeing it.

On the Timeline panel, click on the little tab that displays the name of your composition, then drag the cursor down slightly. The area that displays your switches/current time will turn blue. Release the mouse button; you’ll now see your two comps stacked one above the other…
You'll most likely want to link the cameras' POIs as well as their positions...
