CameraWorks PRO (HUD & CAMCORDER) Version 1.1.3

This is the product designed for professional photographers and film makers/directors. Like the rest of Machess products, CameraWorks has been created with flexibility and scalability in mind. Whether your camera moves are pan, tilt, pedestal, dolly, crane, zoom, or handheld, CameraWorks will be able to reproduce those movements for you.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Record static shots using CameraWorks HUD, and let camcorder object create filming path and glide you through it point by point (Point-by-point mode).

2. Record complicated and realistic camera maneuver. While seated on the in-world camcorder object, you may record the real-time movement of Viewer camera using mouse, Viewer’s camera control, keyboard, or the touch pads on the HUD (Real time mode).

3. When you replay the filming path, the actual movement of Viewer camera is carried out by an in-world camcorder object not scripted commands from the HUD. Such mechanism offers better timing and position accuracy, whereas scripted commands are often limited by the script cycles and Internet latency.

4. Import/export your filming path and camera moves for future references.

5. Share your camera view with others when they are wearing CameraWorks goggles.

6. Illuminate filming area using the built-in camera spotlight.


The complete system consists of camcorder object and HUD. Both are with copy permission. Other accessories include goggles for sharing camera and LandMark HUD (Copy & Mod). See CameraWorks HUD product page for details.


With built-in Parcel Safety mechanism in place, CameraWorks camcorder is able to
--------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Pass through in-world objects without limits.
2. Move through parcels where run-script and object-entry are forbidden (real-time mode only).
