Usage Example

StarterCharacterScripts/Camera

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local CameraDistorter = require(ReplicatedStorage.CameraDistorter)
local Distorter = CameraDistorter.new()

Distorter:SetCamera(workspace.CurrentCamera)

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
    Distorter.scale.x = 1 - math.cos(tick()) / 32
    Distorter.scale.y = 1 - math.sin(tick()) / 32
    
    Distorter.skew.x = math.sin(tick()) / 16
    Distorter.skew.y = math.cos(tick()) / 16
    
    Distorter.zoom = 1 - math.cos(tick()) / 16

    Distorter:Update()
end)

Note: This causes weird behavior with the sun if there’s a SunRays object in Lighting

This is actually pretty cool, this is some sort of nausea effect you can use for certain amount aspects in a game, nice.

This is legitimately exactly what I’ve needed for the past year or so, learning camera distortion has been absurdly hard and this simplifies it SO MUCH. My only issue is that I wish there was more documentation in the module or the post at least. As a suggestion, I think presets would be neat too.
Great module, 9/10
