  • aligning camera to an object

    Hi there,

    Is there a way in Cinema to align the editor camera (or any camera) to an object, so that no matter what that object’s orientation in space, you can get a view looking down on the object’s z-axis, for example?

    -Ben.

    Probably the simplest way is to put the camera where you want it and make it a child of the object. It depends on how the object is being moved on whether that’s the right thing though.

    Sounds like a good plan!

    Thanks, Brian.
