Techniques for editing an interactive video, such as a video game, are disclosed. A three-dimensional (3D) view of the interactive video (e.g., a level in a video game) is presented, enabling one or more nodes in the interactive video to be edited. Example nodes include, but are not limited to, a camera node, a visual effects node, and an audio effects node. The 3D view of also enables a path that is logically connected to two nodes to be edited. For example, the path represents a camera transition when the path is logically connected to two camera nodes.
