zoom the entire scene?

Post by videohack1 »

Hi

I'm creating an animated video using Visual Studio 2018.

I want to zoom the entire scene in and out but not having much luck.
I can zoom a specific layer but the overlays are not affected.
I need to zoom the whole scene and all the overlays at once.
Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for any help.

I would set each overlay and title start/length to matchthe section of video track you are working with. Set the zoom/motions on the video track then copy that attribute and paste in the overlays and title track.

Thanks for your help and input.
I basically have a static background over which are a around a dozen overlay tracks.
Each overlay track has multiple short sequential clips that compose the animations.
To do as you suggest I would have to put each little clip on a separate track?
That would be hundreds probably.
Gotta be an easier way for such a basic function?

You may be best to render the project to a single video file then zoom that video

Although you could also try importing the VSP to the library, then drag the VSP to the timeline (nesting) whilst holding the Shift should drop as a single file. Now try applying zoom.

Writing a novel is a basic function, but can take a million clicks...
I don't know what kind of animation is it, but applying a single zoom to all would make it flat/interesting as a poster.
Even Disney in the 30's used multi planes to enhance snow white animation.
This is 18 tracks animation

Thanks Trevor that's a great idea.
Treat it as a post production effect.
I think I'll try that.
Certainly a lot easier than messing with a hundred tracks.
