Can Unity do this?

We are a computer graphics company that makes video and graphics animations for onset use in television shows and films.
We have been using Adobe Director as a controller for cueing these elements. As you know, Director has been discontinued and will soon fail to function. We are looking for a replacement solution for this purpose.

Although Unity is not designed for this function, could it be used for this purpose? Can unity be used to create a timeline based set of cues to play and loop, essentially, Quicktimes?

Know of a better solution than Unity?

Please share your thoughts.

 

I've seen Unity used a few times for this. Whenever you need your system to render things in realtime, Unity is a good choice.

 

Unity has added several new features over the last few years which may actually help a lot with this use case, such as Timeline and Cinemachine.
