How does Mercalli V2 work?
Picture your original video being projected onto a screen and a virtual camera filming it all over
again – only this camera can move. This camera is Mercalli – and it moves about all 3 camera
axes and is equipped with a magical stabilization logic!
You determine how the camera should work and how it should film by your choice of virtual
Stabi-Cam. For instance, an absolutely fixed camera stabilizes according to different criteria than
a free-flying, gliding virtual camera.
