Scene Transitions Instructions by Kate Rosier
Important Areas to Scene Changing World, Camera, Scenes: create new scene, Scenes: current scenes
Click on “create new scene”
Name the scene, and Click OK (Not Shown - I’ve named the scene “2”)
Clicking on the “current scene” menu should now look like this
Consider the “From” and “To” Scenes What your are moving from and what you are moving to. In this case, World.scene 1 method and World.2 method
Click on Camera in the “Objects” section. In the “Camera’s details” section, select “Camera: move to scene tripod”
Drag “Camera: move to scene tripod” to under the From method. It needs to be placed at the very bottom of the From method (after all the other actions)
After dropping the Camera method, a menu will pop up. Choose “Camera Tripods” then the tripod with the label of the To scene In this case: 2 Scene Tripod
The From method should now look like this
Click on “World” Select the From method under “World’s details” - In this case, “2 Method”
Drag the method to under “Camera: move to scene tripod”
The From method should now look like this
Done. Click play and watch the scene transition
