This page provides a quick starting point for creating sequences in Enscape Envision. Animation Lessons Follow the links below to learn more about animation in Envision. Timeline and Animation Concepts lesson You will learn how to: Use the Timeline Editor to build animations with cameras, environment, and variations. Use keyframes, variations, paths, Look At function Add audio to animations using the sound layer. Go to the lesson Animate Cameras lesson You will learn how to: Animate cameras using keyframes, path paths, and target tracking; as well as without using keyframes. Adjust camera settings - focal length, exposure, color corrections. Use the Look At function to keep the camera focused on a moving object. Go to the lesson Scene Variations in Animation lesson You will learn how to: Animate with variations by blending between scene states in the timeline. Adjust duration and transition types for more natural motion. Go to the lesson Animate Vehicles lesson You will learn how to: Create custom traffic animations using the Path tool. Assign vehicles to follow a path with adjustable speed and position. Use Extrapolation and Looping to control vehicle behavior. Add multiple vehicles to a single path. Go to the lesson Animate People lesson You will learn how to: Populate your project with animated characters via the Anima tool. Draw and customize crowd paths with adjustable shape and interpolation. Fine-tune crowd and individual characters properties. Preview the animation directly in the project. Go to the lesson Animate the Sun lesson You will learn how to: Create a timelapse effect by animating the sun and sky. Use Environment variations to simulate changes in lighting and atmosphere. Animate cloud movement and adjust sun positioning with Azimuth and Altitude. Apply similar techniques using HDRi environments. Go to the lesson Compositing Animations lesson You will learn how to: Compose environment variations, scene variations, and cameras to create a more complex sequence with multiple camera views and lighting setups. Import a sound file into the timeline to enhance the atmosphere of your project. Go to the lesson To animate camera properties such as Aperture, Exposure and Focal Distance: Select a camera clip in the camera track to display the camera properties. The properties are displayed in the Details tab. Notice that a keyframe button appears in front of the parameters that can be animated. Click the button and adjust the parameter value. Toggling of the keyframes visibility on and off is possible only in Advanced mode. To toggle off the visibility of the keyframes in the camera track, open the  Keyframe settings  ( ) and disable the respective checkbox. See also: Animation Tab Camera Tab Camera Parameters
