Keyframe animations

Video clips and other elements like text or still images can be animated using keyframes. First, click the arrow icon by the clip name to expand the options. Transform lets you alter the size and position of elements. We’ve used it to make our clip slightly larger over the course of a few seconds, which makes it look like a slow zoom. (It’s best to use 4K footage for this, then set the image size to 1,920 x 1,080 so that you have the resolution to work with.) Simply click the stopwatch icon to set a keyframe, move the playhead and resize the clip to set a second keyframe.
