This is sick! Literally never knew SFM had aim constraints

[Kostamoinen]

Cool stuff Anomidae! Thanks for this guide. Looking forward to the next one.

I shouldn't be surprised that the guy that made the interloper made an amazingly animated tutorial. Amazing I love it!

I don't use sfm and I don't know why I clicked on this video because I knew it wasn't more Interloper, but actually it's really useful outside of sfm coz I didn't know about camera rigging in 3d animation and this gave me some insight. Thanks!

With enough useful tips like this, you might be the next Jimer Lins!

[Frenkth]

I doubt that I will use this type of camera soonish, but I must say it will gonna be userful when that day comes!

Neat guide btw.
Looking forward for this type of guides and the other content.

Thanks for the tutorial! This was beautifully presented and explained in so much detail that even someone with a baby sfm brain like me can still understand it! Can’t wait to not use it, and can’t wait to see more of your videos.
Keep up the good work Anomi ❤

[cornishpasty]

this is one of the best sfm tutorials out there, its easy to follow, understand and its quite short.

[bonnyebonboxel]

4:36 Wow! This looks like those Third person games, very impressive! I'll keep that in mind for the future, thank you for the tutorial!

[DrClay]

Oh, I actually didn't know about those constraints! Very nice

Here's a cool thing i learned with sfm
I end up using human models as camera holders, so they bend with their actual spine and their heads control it like this

I also end up using walking animations for a handheld camera look like in scenes where people are walking

[Graysonderuloo]

I dont even animate but I watched the whole thing. This is extremely impressive, and I cant believe you are giving this advice for free

[cul]

I don't even use sfm but your videos are so well made and entertaining! Love your stuff

[Benjimains]

i will make good use of this omg
THANK YOU!
SFM'S ARE GONNA BE BREWING! THIS IS GONNA HELP SO MUCH!

[alanmagana]

I saw the thick rat thank you for including him

[Cattyclysm]

5:52 Is that, the Mona? Or what’s left of her? Interesting foreshadowing (possibly of what’s to come)
