- In most applications, you will want to apply a camera path after playing through a volume. In this case, you will be starting in Orthographic mode. The mode must be set to Perspective for the camera path to work. Therefore, you will need to add a controller to switch from Orthographic --> Perspective before initiating the camera path. and another controller to switch back from Perspective --> Orthographic after completion of the camera path.
- Select the DemoDirector tab in the Console frame.
- Click the 'New Event' button and select Viewer 0 --> Camera type, then click OK.
- Click on the new Camera event in the DemoDirector frame. Set the start value as Orthographic and the final value as Perspective.
- Now you will need to add the actual CameraPath event. Click 'New Event' and select CameraPath --> Time. Click OK.
- Click on the new Time event in the DemoDirector frame. Set the start and end values. If you set up the CameraPath with 3 keyframes such that keyframe 1 = start, keyframe 2 = middle, keyframe 3 =end/start, you will want to only go from keyframe 1 to keyframe 2. In this case, set the Start time to 0 and the End time to 10.
- Now you need to add another event to switch back to Orthographic mode.
- 'New Event' -> Viewer 0 -> Camera type, start value = Perspective, end value = Orthographic.
