  zooming in with tracker

  Posted by Martin Halm on July 25, 2013 at 8:21 am

  sorry for such a basic question.

  how do i zoom in on a tracked face?

  i have footage of a crowd of runners in the finish. i want to focus on one person and zoom in on him. i tracked him. but how do i “zoom in” on the tracking window (= his face) and get this centered?

  thanks

  mouse wheel for zoom, middle mouse button for pan / tilt. Yes, you’ll need a 3 button mouse with wheel for resolve.

  In theory it should be doable. Lets say you stabilise x and y only and later add zoom on top of it.

  I have not tried to do this like that as i use external apps for that mostly.

  someone can chime in if they have used like that.

  stablize first, then add / keyframe input sizing to suit your needs.
