Hello I need help on adding camera shake from the animation in my view model.

In the view model there is a Head and that has a animation which controls the camera shake and i need the current camera to follow the heads rotational offset inside the view model.

video without camera shake in game

Local Script Inside a tool:

local tool = script.Parent
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local mouse = player:GetMouse()
local buttondown = false

local viewmodel = nil

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

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	viewmodel = replicatedstorage.ViewModels:WaitForChild("Pistol"):Clone()
	viewmodel.Parent = camera
end)

player.Character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
	if viewmodel then
		viewmodel:Destroy()
	end
	viewmodel = nil
end)

local swayAmount = .6
local swayCF = CFrame.new()
local lastCameraCF = CFrame.new()

runservice.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	if viewmodel then
		viewmodel.PrimaryPart = viewmodel:FindFirstChild("Head")
		
		local rot = camera.CFrame:ToObjectSpace(lastCameraCF)
		local X,Y,Z = rot:ToOrientation()
		swayCF = swayCF:Lerp(CFrame.Angles(math.sin(X) * swayAmount, math.sin(Y) * swayAmount, 0), .1)
		lastCameraCF = camera.CFrame
		
		viewmodel:PivotTo(camera.CFrame * swayCF)
	end
end)

tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	if viewmodel then
		viewmodel:Destroy()
	end
	viewmodel = nil
end)

local cooldown = 0.5
local deb = false

mouse.Button1Down:Connect(function()
	buttondown = true
end)

mouse.Button1Up:Connect(function()
	buttondown = false
end)

local cooldown = 0.5
local deb = false

while task.wait() do
	if viewmodel then
		if deb == false and buttondown == true then
			deb = true
			local fire = viewmodel:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid").Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Fire)
			fire:Play(0)
			task.wait(cooldown)
			deb = false
		end
	end
end

CameraSubject of player’s camera is humanoid root part by default, you better to change camera offset manually without animations.

That’s wrong. It’s actually the Humanoid/AnimationController, setting the subject to a BasePart that’s part of a humanoid makes the camera go all weird in first person.

I’m not sure if @MineMasterTop1gg meant this (and if they did then you can set their answer to the solution), but: Try setting the Humanoid’s CameraOffset, or adjusting the Camera’s rotation using CFrame.angles()
