  Digital Push-ins

  Posted by Gary Perez on July 13, 2009 at 4:00 am

  Hello,
  I am trying to do a digital push in or a simulated zoom by setting keyframes at the beginning and end of a clip. The clip also has a widescreen 2:35 filter I’ve placed on it. When I play it all together the push in affects both the picture AND the widescreen… anyone have a solution to this. I want only the picture to be affected.
  thanks, g

  two different approaches to this:

  1. NEST the clip,
  and apply the ZOOM to the clip, and the MASK to the nest.

  2. rather than use a FILTER for the WS mask, use an overlay.

  Andy Mees makes a WS mask GENERATOR for FC.
  check it out along with his many other useful and free plugins here:

  ok, one more approach, just for the heck of it:

  rather than the motion tab, use the Basic 3D filter to adjust the scale.
  make sure the WS mask come AFTER that in the filters tab.

  personally i use overlays for WS masks, as i find doing the re-pos to be so much easier and intuitive using the Wireframe in the Canvas.
