The idea
Motion, at your fingertips.
Game cam is an After Effects plugin we built that puts game-style camera control into motion design. Press WASD to fly through a 3D scene, drag the mouse to look around, and the flight is recorded as real keyframes on the timeline — ready to retime, offset and polish like any other animation. First-person camera moves become as intuitive as playing a game.
Inside the product
Keep the keyframes
Your flight becomes editable animation. Separate yaw and pitch layers let you retime and refine each movement.
Built for real time
A native C++ plugin and shared-memory control panel keep input responsive. Draft resolution helps the viewport keep up while you move.
How we built it
A native C++ plugin connects to the control panel through shared memory. Camera movement is recorded onto separate yaw and pitch layers, keeping the resulting keyframes editable inside After Effects.
