Animating camera over the controller for FPS controller ?

I was gonna make some basic animations such as turn around, look left and other basic animations for my FPS player. I tried making the animation for the GameObject that holds the controller+camera it didn't turn out well. I was thinking if it will be better idea to animate the camera ? I would be using some code from other scripts to execute the animations for example.

    public Camera camm;
     camm.animation.Play("turn_around");
     camm.animation.Play("do_your_thing");
