Camera export

Hello,

Is there any way to export camera keyframes from one scene to another in Maya?

The camera is parented onto a locator.

Thanks in advance...

Export the camera rig as an ma. Import that into your new scene. If you then need to copy the keys, do it there.


Imagination is more important than knowledge.

I found animExport in the plugin manager, turned it on and exported it out. However I'm not sure how to import it to the other scene. It gives an error reading the file when I try.

Thanks I tried that and it worked this time. The locator didn't come along in the import for some reason but the keys from the locator got applied to the camera, which is fine I guess. Thanks for your help.
