Camera Rig

The asset is a camera rig crane designed for use in SideFX Houdini. It's designed to simulate the movement of a camera crane, allowing users to create dynamic and cinematic camera movements for their 3D scenes.

Functionality:

• Camera Rig: The core component, controlling the camera's position and movement.
• Crane: A sub-component simulating the physical crane arm, adjustable parameters include length, pan, tilt, and height (beam up/down).
• Base: The foundation of the crane, likely providing controls for overall position and rotation.
• Master: A control element for broader adjustments
• Path: The trajectory along which the camera moves.
• Path Guides: Visual aids to help define and visualize the camera's path.

• Tilt/Pan Lock/Unlock: Allows the user to selectively lock or unlock the tilt and pan functions of the camera, likely for more precise control during specific movements.
• Parameter Resetting: A utility function to reset specific parameters to their default values.
• Keyframing: Enables the user to set keyframes for animation, recording the values of parameters at specific frames.
• Keyframe Deletion: Allows the user to remove keyframes from specific parameters at the current frame.
• World Rotation Matching: Aligns the rotation of the asset to match the world rotation of a "stabilizer" node.
• Camera Bake: Bakes the animation of the camera rig onto the output camera, creating a new camera node with the baked animation for rendering and further manipulation.
