Aperture Cutscene Editor is a cutscene editor for Unity. It allows you to quickly setup curve based animations for cameras, materials, characters, or anything else you want to animate. See your animation in edit mode with the Play Preview button for quick revisions. Aperture Cutscene Editor can also be used to set up scripted gameplay event chains by designers and non-programmers.
Update:
Version 1.1 is now on the Asset Store. It fixes some problems with Unity 3.5 and has better compatibility with other tools.

If you have any suggestions about the types of video tutorials, you would like to see I would love to hear them. Right now I’m thinking of an underlying interface overview, a simple cinematic cutscene, and a more complex gameplay oriented tutorial covering advanced animations and Events.
