Cameras
The Cameras feature in ACT 3 AI provides creators with precise control over how each shot is visualized. By combining shot prompting, timeline editing, and visual layout tools, the camera system ensures creative teams can stage scenes exactly as they imagine.
Key Capabilities
- Multi-Angle Support: Add multiple cameras to capture different angles within the same scene.
- Camera Paths: Define smooth pans, tilts, dollies, and tracking shots.
- Lens & Depth Settings: Adjust focal length, depth of field, and cinematic filters.
- Preview in Editor: Instantly review how each camera angle will render.
- Top Down View: Place and move cameras on a 2D map for spatial accuracy.
How to Use
- Open your scene in the Editor.
- Switch to the Top Down View to position cameras relative to actors and props.
- Select a camera and define movements using path-drawing tools.
- Link the camera feed to your timeline or storyboard panels.
- Render a Preview to confirm framing and motion.
Integration with Workflow
- Works alongside Digital Actors for character-centric framing.
- Camera setups can be exported/imported for re-use across scenes.
- Supports Build Video for final render pipelines.
Troubleshooting & Tips
- Use multiple short camera paths rather than one long, complex path.
- In Top Down View, zoom in for precise alignment of cameras and actors.
- Save frequently—camera settings are stored per scene.
