    hello,
    I’m trying to figure out how to give some still pictures that 3d zoom-in look…i’m using z axis and i’ve also added a new camera, but i’m not having much success. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Do a Cow search for “2.5D” the term for creating 3d illusion with still pictures.
    There’s been quite some discussion about the techniques over the last year.
    In essence you need different layers that are spaced apart in Z-space, and some camera movement to create the typical perspective parallax movement.

    Also search ‘ken burns’ (whoever that is). He seems to be synonymous with that effect.
