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.

    It doesn’t make any sense to add the shake before the speed ramping. Like you say, it would be much easier to do after the time remapping. Just look up some camera shake tutorials for whatever software you are using, and then just adjust it to how you want it to look. Then you can largely just repeat the same cycle of keyframes over and over.
