Camera Projects
Projects allow you to organize your camera setup into multiple slots.

This makes it possible to prepare different camera positions for different scenes, locations or shots and switch between them quickly.

Camera Sliders
Create a start and end position and let CameraOperator interpolate the camera movement between them.

Example:

/cam slider start intro
/cam slider end intro 10

This creates a 10-second camera movement between the two positions.

LIVE Camera
CameraOperator also provides live camera modes for operating a camera manually.

Available modes:

• Handheld
  
  
• Stabilized
  
  
• Cinematic

Example:

/cam live on handheld

Stop LIVE mode with:

/cam live off
