01

Installation

Camera Nodes is a single Python file — no dependencies, no packages. Install like any Blender addon.

1

Download the file

Download camera nodes fx.zip from your SuperHive purchase page.

2

Open Blender Preferences

Go to Edit → Preferences → Add-ons. Click Install… top right. or just drag the zip to blende

3

Enable the addon

Search for "Camera Nodes" and tick the checkbox to enable it.

4

Open Node Editor

Switch any editor to Node Editor. Select Camera Nodes from the tree-type dropdown.

Requires Blender 4.0+. Uses session_uid for camera tracking and node socket APIs introduced in Blender 4.0.

02

How It Works

Each frame, the node tree evaluates left to right, accumulating camera state (position, rotation, lens, DOF) and writes the result to the active camera object.

Evaluation order

Input Nodes
→
Effect / Move Nodes
→
Camera Output

Input nodes (Sine Wave, Frame, Random) compute values each frame. Effect nodes (Shake, Orbit) read those values via sockets and modify camera state. Camera Output writes the final state to Blender.

Dirty flags — only axes explicitly modified by a node are written back. Disconnecting a socket immediately restores the camera's original baseline position.

03

Sockets & Values

Every float socket works the same way regardless of which node it's on:

UNLINKED
The field next to the socket dot is editable. Type a value or drag to change. Execution reads this directly.
LINKED
The field shows the connected input node's computed value. Your typed value is overridden by the input.

04 · Input Nodes

Driving Sockets

Input nodes produce float values each frame. Connect their output to any socket on any effect node to animate it procedurally.

Recipes

Breathing Handheld Shake

Sine Wave
→ Amplitude →
Camera Shake
→
Handheld
→
Output

Sine Wave (A=0.3, F=0.2) → Shake Amplitude. Add Handheld after (Stability=0.4). Result: intensity breathes while organic micro-movement layers on top.

Orbit with Inward Tilt

Ramp 0→-15°
→ Camera Tilt →
Circle Orbit
→
Output

Ramp (frames 1→120, out 0→-15) → Circle Orbit Camera Tilt. Camera orbits while tilting increasingly downward toward the subject over 120 frames.

Blend Two Rigs with Ramp

Handheld
→ A
Effect Mix
→
Output

Handheld → Cam A. Circle Orbit → Cam B. Ramp (frames 50→100, out 0→1) → Factor. Frames 1-50: handheld. Frames 50-100: blends into orbit. Frames 100+: full orbit.

Dynamic Focus Pull

Ramp 2m→20m
→ Focus Distance →
Depth of Field
→
Output

DOF node (F-Stop=1.8). Ramp (frames 1→120, out 2→20) → Focus Distance. Camera automatically pulls focus from 2m to 20m over the shot.

07

Troubleshooting

Camera doesn't move when I change values

Make sure a Camera Output node is in the tree and connected. Check the target camera is the active scene camera.

Camera doesn't return to original position on disconnect

Press Reset Camera Baseline in the N-panel to re-capture the original position.

Time-based nodes stop working after loading a file

Disable and re-enable the addon. The frame handler is @persistent and should survive file loads, but re-enabling forces re-registration.

Expression Driver shows an error

Open the Blender System Console for the exact message. Available variables: frame, t (time in seconds), sin, cos, pi, sqrt, abs, pow.
