Using the virtual darkroom analogy, I explain how to use the Flying Camera rig to crop/scale/distort video. Using a non-orthographic camera, we can scale rotate and zoom by keyframing the camera location. File navigation and relative file specs, types of files and multi-file (sequences), selection, and special video controls are discussed to offset, start, fields, and cycle the video. Also information about the video is shown in the console window by the codec.
