I'm happy to report that abruptly switching from Toon Boom Animate Pro to Harmony is not nearly as traumatic as I thought it would be. The two programs look and work similarly which is a great help.
BUT Harmony has many more features than Animate Pro and I happily discovered one of them: the Quake module!
In Animate Pro, I was able to do a camera shake effect by altering the x, y and z coordinates of the camera in the timeline. It was effective but a little time consuming.
In Harmony, I drag a module into the Node View, attach it to the camera node…and I'm done!
Here's the Quake module at work in my newest favorite scene of the series:
