Timeline is a sequencing tool in Unity that lets you visually create, edit, and control time-based events like animations, audio, signals, and gameplay sequences, without hard-coding timing logic. In this video we show you how to get started using it.

Unity Timeline is a built-in tool for creating linear animated sequences with a video-editor-style interface. It supports multiple track types including animations, audio, Cinemachine cameras, particle effects, visual effects, and signal-based scripting triggers. The system allows developers to create cutscenes, intro videos, or promotional content by combining character animations, camera movements, audio, and effects on a timeline. Key features include animation blending, keyframe recording, time dilation for slow-motion effects, and integration with external tools like Alembic for complex 3D animations.
