Free Maya Camera Rig: JoshCam Realistic Camera Rig (JustJoshinMagic)
Original title: JoshCam - FREE Realistic Camera Rig for Maya
Overview
JoshCam is a free realistic camera rig for Maya created by Josh Janousky (JustJoshinMagic) for his own short film. It combines features the author liked from several existing camera rigs into a single setup, so it doubles as a reference for how a film-style camera rig can be structured in Maya.
The rig is a single .ma file from Gumroad, offered as a $0+ pay-what-you-want download with an email address required; a noted trick is that the file can be renamed to .mel and imported with a MEL one-liner. Useful for animators and layout artists who want a ready-made cinematic camera.
