No Worries. I hope I didn't offend...that's not why I wrote it. I used to
be a TV news reporter and editing my own voice track was tough enough as it
was, since I used to do the same thing. Keep up the cool tutorials, though...they're really helpful.

That's hilarious. I agree though, I drive myself crazy when I listen to them. My apologies...I will work on doing that less!

Great tutorial, Grant. Thanks. My only problem (and it's a little one) is to PLEASE edit your voice-over if possible. Take out the instances where you swallow and smack your tongue before you speak (like your mouth is dry or you're nervous or something). It's really distracting from an otherwise great tutorial.

Thanks.

UPDATE: If you decide to set keyframes manually, try selecting them all and hitting "F9" to smooth the motion even further. You may or may not like the way this looks, but give it a try.
