It looks like the background footage was shot with a medium wide to normal lens. Double-click the Camera layer, and choose 50mm or 35 mm from the presets. Close the Camera Options. Go back to the Main comp and roll down the Transform properties, and hit Reset. You should now be able to manipulate the camera or the Element object without the distortion you are getting.

Nothing wrong. You simply created a camera with an extremly short lense. Check the relevant settings on the camera layer.

What parameters in the camera z do you recommend I change I don’t think
I’ve ever had any other object do that before
