Who’s it for?
Gameplay Designers
Build smart, responsive cameras that adapt to gameplay – from third-person to driving, RTS, FPS, and more. Tweak in play mode and save instantly.
Cutscene Artists
Design once, deploy anywhere. Black Eye cameras adapt to character scale, speed, and scene changes – perfect for flexible, cinematic storytelling even with variable scenarios
Previs Artists
Create a bank of Black Eye shots – wide, close-up, drone, cowboy – and assemble them as clips on Sequencer. Rearrange and retime them without reanimating cameras. Each shot dynamically adapts to character changes and layout tweaks, so your edit stays flexible and you can get closer to the story.
Mocap Studios • Esports • Multiplayer
Black Eye gives you real-time, director-level control across live mocap stages, esports events, and dynamic multiplayer games. Smart cameras that follow the action in real-time.
