This article is about the Cinematic Editor with cross-platform support. For the Cinematic Editor extension which uses the Bedrock Editor engine, see Cinematic Editor extension.
The Cinematic Runtime is an Add-On allows players to play a scene by sending scene data from Cinematic Editor in the release version of Minecraft.
The Cinematic Runtime add-on is part of the Cinematic Editor extension, a Minecraft editor add-on which utilizing the /camera
command for changing perspectives and designing cinematic scenes. The editor has the capability to control your camera perspective with Minecraft Bedrock Editor to allow players to make a Minecraft scene, without knowledge to use the /camera
command.
This is made possible through exporting the scene data from the editor extension to another add-on. And the data is saved in world storage, so the scene can still be played when rejoining without the need to import the data again.
The video above showcase how you can export keyframes from the editor and import the data and play a scene in a normal Minecraft world.
In the video, it showcased the extension has the capability to transfer a scene data to the runtime Add-On. Here's how you do it:
Apply both Cinematic Editor Extension and Cinematic Runtime Add-On to an Editor project.
Create a scene in the Editor UI, then press the Export Scene button.
Either using Test World feature or export the project as world in world settings to convert an Editor project to normal world.
Enter the world, and type the following command:
/function cinematic/editor
The runtime add-on now supports creating and editing a Minecraft scene without the Editor, by sacrificing the fancy UI given by Minecraft Editor engine.

/function cinematic/editor

After pressing the create scene button, you will enter Scene Editor mode. There will be 3 items in your hotbar, and your whole inventory will be cleared until you exit scene editor mode:
Exits scene editor without saving the scene using the Cancel item.
Create a keyframe using the camera item. Not to be confused with Minecraft's camera item.
When using this item a keyframe will be saved temperatory to a scene.
It will also asks you to set values of ease type and ease time, which you can change it later after exiting scene editor mode.
Using the Confirm item will save the scene to the world.
Once you have created an existing scene and when you decide to edit that scene, enter /function cinematic/editor
command and you will be greeted with different panel:
Select a keyframe then select Edit Keyframe, which brings you back to the form seen in Create Keyframe.
You can also delete a keyframe from existing scene.
