Gobi off-road drive
Track an off-road vehicle from the front and side, then finish with a ridge-top push-in. Practice framing a moving subject.
Choose the move for the goal
| Goal | Move | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Follow a moving vehicle | Track in parallel from the front quarter or side | Travel direction, body size and ground relationships |
| Establish environment and scale | Dolly slowly toward the subject | Foreground parallax and final framing |
| Change the subject's viewing angle | Orbit while maintaining the look-at target | Travel direction and mid-shot obstructions |
How should I review the animation and camera?
Inspect subject and camera paths together. Play or scrub the 3D animation to check pace, scale and mid-shot framing. Examples with a saved AI result also let you compare terrain, appearance, motion direction and cuts at matching times.
Can I practice for free?
Play the 3D animation on an example page, then sign in to open a template as a separate project. Manual edits, preview playback and video export are free. AI direction and AI video generation use separate credits. Change one variable and review it before deciding to generate.
