A talk on framing, smoothed motion, camera shake and dynamic split-screen. Connects the mathematics of camera behavior to game readability.

## When to use it

A talk on framing, smoothed motion, camera shake and dynamic split-screen. Connects the mathematics of camera behavior to game readability.

## Access

GDC labels this 2016 talk as free content. The recording is in English and covers camera mathematics rather than a current engine API.

## Try it

Compare immediate and smoothed following along the same route. Check obstacle visibility and whether shake can be disabled without losing hit feedback.
