Does the camera physically move (i.e. track or crab) - or just zoom and depress? If it does then it is likely there is a person behind it...
They have an 'eng-tech' in the studio acting as a floor manager during the recording of the opening titles and during the show to move & re-po the cameras (three of them) and it's him/her that that physically moves the camera, i.e. lifts it up on its 'ped' upon the directors cue.
