Animate an image plane

You can animate an image plane using a variety of different methods:

Animate an image plane parameter setting in the Camera Editor by -clicking the name of the parameter, and then clicking the Key button in the title bar of the Camera Editor. This is similar to the procedure for animating parameter settings in the Control Window (see Animate parameters).
Use a series of images as an animated image plane by setting the Frame Type parameter in the Image section of the Camera Editor (see Frame Type in Windows > Editors > Cameras).
Use Animation > Keyframe > Set Keyframe.

Sizing and positioning an image plane

By default, an image plane fills the camera view with the entire image. You can size and position an image plane so that only a portion of the image appears or so the image appears in a specific region of the camera view.

Use the Image Placement parameters in the Camera Editor to size and position an image plane (see Image Placement in Windows > Editors > Cameras), or pick the image plane (Pick > Object Types > Image Plane) and use the Transform tools to transform it.

Masking an image plane

You can mask an image plane so that only portions of the image are visible. Use the Mask parameters in the Camera Editor to mask an image plane (see Mask in Windows > Editors > Cameras).
