Next we'll move the time bar to the end time we're looking for. We'll then change the appearance or location of those actors as required, and finally we'll set the keys to record that new final appearance or location, and it's also important to note here that if auto keys is turned on this last step is done automatically for us. So, let's take a look at generating my first animation. So let's start off by just doing a simple camera change. So again the first step I want to do is go to my initial time. So my first initial time will probably be at zero seconds and most likely we'll just stay with the current view. But regardless just for practice I'll move my time bar…
