I'd like to shake the camera around a bit during an explosion, and I've tried a few different functions for rocking it around, and nothing seems to really give that 'wow, what a bang!' type feeling that I'm looking for. I've tried some arbitrary relatively high frequency sine wave patterns with a bit of linear attenuation, as well as a square wave-type pattern. I've tried moving just one axis, two, and all three (although the dolly effect was barely noticeable in that case).
Does anyone know of a good camera shaking pattern?
Answer
I've got decent camera shake by applying Perlin noise to the camera's orientation. It gives you a decent big jolt with higher frequency shaking built in, and can look really good.
http://mrl.nyu.edu/~perlin/doc/oscar.html has more details and sample code for generating noise.
