    Posted by Jack Stewart on July 25, 2011 at 6:20 pm

    I want to get my camera to focus on the centre of the world throughout the duration of my animation. Is there a way to set this so that I can reposition the camera in the scene automatically leaving it pointing towards a set target?

    The image shows how the direction of the camera is pointing remains constant as I move it away at an angle from the centre of the world. I need it to lock onto this location as it moves away. Any suggestions?

    Have you considered using a target camera? or if your camera is already animated, you can always add a target tag.

    If you don’t actually have an object that stays at the center, you could use a null as your target.
