```html camera-shake.html
Camera Shake
```
## Install
That writes one file: `compositions/components/camera-shake.html`.
## Paste it into your composition
Open `compositions/components/camera-shake.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.
A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
## Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you
want to change on the element:
| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `shakeProfile` | `handheld-normal-mild` | `handheld-normal-mild`, `handheld-normal-strong`, `handheld-normal-extreme`, `handheld-wideangle-mild`, `handheld-wideangle-strong`, `handheld-tele-mild`, `handheld-tele-strong`, `rig-6d-shake`, `rig-6d-wobble` | |
| `shakeIntensity` | `1` | 0 to 3, step 0.05 | |
| `shakeFrequency` | `1` | 0.1 to 4, step 0.05 | |
| `shakeRotation` | `true` | boolean | |
Set them with `data-variable-values` on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
