It demonstrates a closer framing created by increasing focal length while keeping the camera stationary\. ## Default inputs ### Source Image Type: image [Source Image]() ## Saved outputs ### Zoom In Video Type: video [Zoom In Video]() ## Ways to use this recipe Create simple camera\-motion treatments from still images for film and entertainment workflows\. ### Animate a still frame Convert a single source image into a video with a gradual closer framing, adding camera movement to an otherwise static shot\. ### Build an opening shot Use the zoom\-in video as an opening treatment when a production needs to move attention toward the subject in an image\. ### Emphasize image details Bring a selected subject or area visually closer by increasing focal length without moving the camera position\. ### Create a motion concept Turn a still reference into a zoom\-in video that can communicate a possible camera treatment during early film planning\. ### Prepare social video material Adapt a source image into a short\-form motion asset with a straightforward zoom\-in effect for entertainment\-focused presentations\. ### Add movement to photo sequences Apply the recipe to individual images in a broader sequence when you want a closer framing treatment across selected stills\. ## Frequently asked questions ### What does the Camera Zoom In recipe do? It takes a source image and produces a zoom\-in video\. The effect increases focal length to bring the subject closer in frame while the camera remains stationary\. ### Who is this recipe for? It is suited to film and entertainment workflows that need to turn a still image into a simple camera\-motion treatment\. It can help with visual concepts, shot planning, and presentation materials built from images\. ### What should I prepare as the input? Prepare one source image containing the subject or scene you want to bring closer in frame\. Source Image is the recipe’s exposed input, and you can change it in Fuser\. ### What output should I expect? The output is labeled Zoom In Video\. It demonstrates a closer framing created through increased focal length rather than a moving camera\. ### Can I change the image used by the recipe? Yes\. Source Image is an exposed editable input, so you can replace the saved example image with another image in Fuser\. The resulting video will be based on that selected source\. ### Does the camera move during the zoom? No\. The recipe is defined around increasing focal length while keeping the camera stationary\. The visible change is a closer subject framing rather than a camera position change\. ### What is the saved example on this page? The page shows a saved default example with its source image connected to the Zoom In Video output\. It is an example of the recipe setup, not a live generation or a guarantee about a new run\. ## Used for - [Film & animation](https://fuser.studio/solutions/industries/film-animation.md): Develop film treatments, character and environment concepts, storyboards and motion studies\.
