Basic Camera Rig Mel Script Test 1

After studying the options and deciding on where to start writing my script, I came up with a basic test model for what I want to get done. This script basically does everything I did with my prototype test, except it makes it a bit easier and less time consuming to set up. I am still deciding on where I should move on from here.

Here is the basic set up of my script:
