Virtual Camera
Virtual Camera is a tool in cinematic design that lets designers move through a digital scene as if holding a real camera, using simple controls like a joystick or tablet. This tool can record camera paths and angles, giving designers the power to plan shots, test lighting, and try out different camera moves before any real filming or animation happens. Designers can quickly see how a scene will look from many viewpoints, helping them make choices about mood, timing, and storytelling. Virtual cameras can save these movements as data, which can be used later for animation or visual effects, making the design process faster and more flexible.
