A method of navigating a virtual camera using a navigation device is disclosed. An initial position of the virtual camera capturing at least a portion of a scene is received. The initial position of the virtual camera is associated with an initial camera movement characteristic. A candidate rail is generated based on the initial position of the virtual camera and a change in the scene. The generated candidate rail is associated with a navigation constraint defining movement of the virtual camera along the generated candidate rail. The virtual camera is navigated along the generated candidate rail using the navigation device based on the initial camera movement characteristic and a characteristic defined by the navigation constraint. The constrained navigation is enabled using the navigation device.
