Google introduces Google Earth Studio for making videos maken

Google has unveiled Google Earth Studio. This is a software suite that makes it possible to easily create animations within Earth and export them to video. Earth Studio is aimed at news media, educational institutions and the like.

Google Earth Studio supports common animation tools such as keyframes, but the interface is so simple that the company states that knowledge and experience with animating and editing is not necessary. The software includes a number of templates so that in the simplest case, users only need to specify a location, after which a video can be created with functions such as zooming and panning.

Advanced options include the time of day and the camera’s field of view. In addition, Earth contains 3d models of a lot of geographic and architectural content, which can be shown in the video and also cast shadows based on the time of day. Still frames can also be made. The software also has accompanying documentation and supports exporting to Adobe After Effects.

Google Earth Studio is not yet available to everyone, but it may be in the future. If you want to try the software suite now, you can fill out a form to request access. Google Chrome is currently required. Users of all kinds are free to publish the images produced, as long as they state where they come from.
