Using camera triggers ofcourse. You can only alter the camera after the map starts. Also you can break camera locks with Ctrl+C, thus you will need to perodically relock the camera to the area or the player could break free.

No cause the trigger depends on your map and what you are after thus you have to make it.
I advise looking up maps which do something simlar to what you are after (locking camera) and seeing how they do it and then enhancing that process to suit your needs.
I if you can not lock a camera to a single spot on the map, you need some kind of loop that runs 60 times a second and every time, sets the player view to the same spot. The camera or target of the camera could be stored in a variable and when the camera lock is not needed, you could turn it off to save processor time.
