How can I do this image within a image thing?>
I have a commercial coming up and here is the idea (much like the HP commercials). Having a person stand with a picture of someone in it. The picture is actually a movie. So the person stands with the picture, the camera zooms in on the picture and the picture starts to come alive and in that picture someone else is holding another picture.
My question is this – if I do all the zooming post pro, how do I avoid the pitfalls of when zooming in the video get pixellated? Is there another way around this? -

If add a slight radial blur set to “Zoom,” you shouldn’t be able to notice any quality loss due to scaling up.
Zooming faster (as opposed to slower) could also help.
Hope I helped.

Yes, I was thinking that as well. Sort of like the Five Alive commercials on TV where they zoom into a part of the screen and it fills it with a new area (footage) and it keeps going. I don’t want to radial zoom too much, I don’t think they do it with the Five Alive commercial at all – btw, I can’t find them anywhere online, not youtube or anywhere!

If you just zoom into the next frame over a handful of frames, you’ve solved your problem. Zooming into the next scene isn’t a prob because it just goes from small to normal size. But the area around the card will pixelate. However if your zoom in is only like 10 frames or less. just turn on motion blur and it will hide it for you. Just try it, it works better than you think. You don’t need a radial blur becuase scaling up quickly creates a radial looking blur anyways by way of the motion.
