A real camera, audio on the timeline and 20 new effects

The camera now has depth of field, and layers can sit at different depths. Sound sits on the timeline next to your keyframes, and almost every new effect can be keyframed.

Depth of field

Layers sit at real depths in 2D, and the camera blurs whatever falls off the focal plane.

Bézier easing

Start from a preset curve, then drag the handles until the motion feels right. Springs get their own controls.

Audio on the timeline

Pick a track from the sound library and edit it beside your keyframes.
