How to Program in Unity: Third Person Movement Explained

Learn how to set up a third person camera and program our characters to move in the right direction! This tutorial explains how we can use Unity's Free Look Camera and our own code so that our character movement is relative to the direction of the camera. By the end of the video we'll have a working third person character! This is also the latest entry in a series of tutorials surrounding Unity's Built In Character Controller, however the script was written and video edited so that anyone can watch it and come away with the same results!
