2. Use the Up Arrow, Down Arrow, Right Arrow, and Left Arrow keys to move the camera in
3D space; press and hold the Option key while using the arrow keys to move the camera
more slowly.
You can also drag in the canvas to orient the camera.
If you’re using a scene camera, you can also record the movement you create using the
Walk 3D View tool, by creating keyframes. For more information on keyframing, see Add
keyframes in Motion.
Note: The Walk 3D View tool is available only when Active Camera, Camera, or
Perspective is selected from the Camera pop-up menu. For more information on the
Camera pop-up menu, see Camera pop-up menu in Motion.
Animate a camera
In Motion, do one of the following:
• Add keyframes to a camera parameter in the Camera Inspector or Properties Inspector.
For more information on animating with keyframes, see Intro to keyframing in Motion.
• Apply a basic behavior or a Camera behavior to a camera.
For more information on Camera behaviors, see Add Camera behaviors in Motion.
• Apply a Parameter behavior to camera parameter in the Camera Inspector or Properties
Inspector.
For more information on Parameter behaviors, see Add or remove a Parameter behavior
in Motion.
Isolate an object in the canvas in Motion
The Isolate command (and Isolate button) temporarily aligns the current view with the
selected object and hides all other objects in the scene, facilitating access to distant or
obscured objects.
The Isolate command is not intended for creating a camera view to be rendered or
exported, but rather to temporarily restrict your view to a single object so you can modify
or manipulate that object more effectively.
