This question is addressed to people who are familiar with video processing/editing.

So... I found some guy on YouTube who creates cinematics for Minecraft servers (I'll paste a link to an example of one of his videos below).

From what I've managed to notice, he uses time remapping to slow down and speed up the footage so that the movement of the virtual camera is synced to the music.

However, in addition to this, he also uses a "bouncing camera?" effect. I have no idea what to call it and hence my question.

What is this effect of shaking the camera in sync with the music? What tools/software should I use to get a similar effect?

Minecraft game itself does not have any tools that allow you to achieve such effects. So I'm sure it's edited.

So that guy:

  1. recorded footage of the virtual building/object, the camera moves at a constant speed
  2. added camera shaking (?)
  3. added speed ramping to sync with the music

Just how did he make the camera shaking perfectly synchronized with the music?

Take a look at around 0:15 of the video - it’s clear that the pumping motion of the camera which is synced to the beat is a result of the speed ramping. When it’s slowed down, you can still see the camera shakes, but they’re not as apparent because they’re slow. At the moment where it’s sped up, the camera motion becomes much more apparent because the speed ramping allows more camera movement (shake) in a certain period of time.

Of course, there is no right or wrong order. You can do this by adjusting your shake keyframes to match the beat but if you’re looking to recreate that effect this is my best guess
