Is it hard to animate in first person?

#1

I’m doing a short animation for a class I am in and I don’t animate very often (more of a modeler) So I was using this project as a learning experience. I only have a few weeks to finish it up.

-Does anyone know if it is harder to animate in first person than the usual? If I do it normally I have to model all the characters but if I do it first person I only have to move the camera, but I feel like it would be difficult to move the camera in a realistic way as if you are seeing it through the eyes of the character, especially for a newbie. What do you think?

Any pro’s, con’s, tips, or suggestions?

well i must say animating a camera wud be much much simpler than animating a character co scharacter has so many parts and each part like legs hands etc have all the channels where has camera is one so would be easier too make but for relastic movement there are some tips online
Mine here are they
A person eyes would never movie in a straight line like from point a to b either it will go slight down or up and that too nver in perfect center
there are blinks in fast turn but character is alert then no blinks
sound will bring the movement i mean first sound thats action and den reaction
these are some basics i would say
