Powerful Features for Map Animations

Everything you need to create high-quality map animations in minutes

21 Animations

From simple camera movements to multi-layer scenes that run several animations at once, we've got you covered

Camera Movement (Basic)

Fly to

Move camera to location and zoom

Zoom in / out

Change zoom at current position

Pan to

Slide camera smoothly

Rotate

Rotate map (-1440° to +1440°)

Border Animations

Land/Interior Animations

Path-Based Animations

Visual Effects & Overlays

Scenes

Run multiple animations at the same time for cinematic, professional results

Concurrent Execution

Group steps into scenes to run them simultaneously. Fly to a location while filling it with a flag and adding a label — all at once, not one after another.

Shorter Animations

Overlapping camera movement with visual effects cuts your animation time in half. A 30-second sequential animation becomes a 15-second cinematic piece.

Flexible Timing

Add delays between steps in a scene to stagger their start times. Start the camera movement, then reveal the border trace 1.5 seconds later for a natural "arrive and reveal" effect.

✨ 10 Customizable Themes

Give your map a look that fits the story

Choose between 10 customizable themes. Each brings map colors, labels and elements together, then stays fully editable in the studio.
