# Cinemachine

|
## What is Cinemachine?
|
|||
|
|
Cinemachine is a suite of ‘smart’ procedural modules which allow you to define the shot and
|
|||
|
|
they’ll dynamically follow your direction. Set up shots which track and compose motion in
|
|||
|
|
realtime, like AI camera operators. The procedural nature makes them bug-resistant as they
|
|||
|
|
always work to make the shot based on your direction. They’re great for gameplay, but they’re
|
|||
|
|
also amazingly fast for cutscenes. Change an animation, a vehicle speed, ground terrain -
|
|||
|
|
whatever - and Cinemachine will dynamically make the shot. You can use really telephoto
|
|||
|
|
lenses and not have to update the cutscene if things change.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Setup
|
|||
|
|
Cinemachine works out of the box with no dependencies other than Unity itself.
|
|||
|
|
Just install it and you're ready to go. It's pure c-sharp, fully open-source,
|
|||
|
|
and the public API has complete XML documentation built right in.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## History
|
|||
|
|
Cinemachine has been in development over a number of years across multiple projects. We’ve
|
|||
|
|
been designing camera systems for almost 20 years and have shipped millions of AAA titles
|
|||
|
|
across numerous genres. The Cinemachine team has an award winning cinematographer and
|
|||
|
|
a senior engineer with heavy math skills. Also, we love this stuff to bits.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
## Mission
|
|||
|
|
Our mission with Cinemachine is to build an entirely unified camera system bridging
|
|||
|
|
gameplay, cutscenes, from fully procedural cameras to entirely canned sequences and
|
|||
|
|
everything in between.
|
|||
|

|

|
## Example Scenes
|

|
|
Please have a look at our example scenes. They are shipped with the package and can be imported
|
|||
|
|
via Package Manager.
