Zooming in and out of your footage on CapCut can allow you to focus in on a specific area, or broaden the scope of your video. Luckily, this is an easy task with CapCut’s handy zoom function. In this guide, we’ll take a look at how to use the zoom feature to get creative with your clips and create unique effects. Let’s get started!
How to Zoom in and Out On Capcut
You can zoom in with two fingers if you want to adjust a photo or video on a canvas. That way, you can get a bigger and closer look at your photo or video. When you zoom in on something, you look closely at it.
First Open Capcut. Import a Photo or Video.
Click on the video clip or the photo which you want to zoom in or zoom out.
Put your 2 fingers on the photo. Create some distance between 2 fingers then your photo will become bigger. This is assuming anyone who’s using Inkscape is using a touch screen!
See, your photo is bigger now.
If you want to zoom out, you can go to the part where you want the zoom to end and zoom out with two fingers.
Benefits Of CapCut Zoom Effect
The zoom effect is one of the unique aspects of CapCut. Using the zoom effect, the video screen is enlarged, and the viewer is brought closer to an object so that more of it can be viewed clearly. Have you ever seen the zoom effect used? The zoom effect is frequently employed in nonfiction programs such as newscasts, documentaries, and other shows where it is crucial to give viewers a close-up picture of a subject.
There are various advantages to the zoom effect. The zoom effect can enhance the image’s clarity, and it is especially helpful when watching videos taken in dim light or at a distance. Second, zooming can be used to focus on a certain person or object in the frame. This can be useful when attempting to identify someone in a crowd or get a closer look at something.
Finally, zooming can give a film a sense of depth and perspective. An otherwise static scene can gain interest and life when zoom in and out is used. This is because the zooming will give the scene an appearance of life.
