Utkarsh,

  Thanks for the response. Eh, how about if someone doesn't know Python?

  Thanks!
   Jesse

>   I'm trying to make several animations that involve the use of the same
camera values in the Animation Keyframes. In so doing, is it possible to
simply cut and paste the values to other animations? If so, how do I go
about doing that?

Jesse, I'd suggest using Python tracing capabiltiies to capture the state of
the animation and then replaying that python trace on each of the
animations. You could also save Python state out then extract animation
related state from the state file and replay that.

Saving it out as an avi (or a series of png images that you stitch together
using some other tool) is probably your best bet.
