Sample Description

Customization Samples This sample project includes a Timeline instance with different custom tracks that demonstrate time dilation, video, text, tweening, and character animation. This sample also includes a custom marker that annotates clips and tracks, and track groups.

Use the examples in this sample project as a basis for your own Timeline track customizations.

Gameplay Sequence Demo This sample project includes a Timeline instance with multiple Track groups, tracks, animated characters, effects, and camera switches that demonstrate how to use Unity's Timeline to create a cut-scene.

This cut-scene features a jogging character (Player) who collides with another character (Character2). The Character2 character then bumps into a table which causes a can to fall and bounce on the floor. The Character2 character gestures towards the Player character who continues jogging as the cut-scene ends.
