Pan and Zoom Effect, which PE version introduced it?

I like my PE 3.0 but it does not seem to offer the Pan and Zoom effect. Or am I just not seeing it. Does anyone know which later version introduced it? I know 8.0 has it, but when did it come along? The bundled version of Photoshop 5.0 it came with has a pan slide show, just discovered it.
Also, I am familiar with keyframes, would this be helpful with 3.0 pan? or do I need a newer version. Any tutorials good for this?
thank you

Pan & Zoom is available in all versions that offer Keyframing on the fixed Effects>Motion>Scale (Zoom) and Motion>Position (Pan). What might have been introduced would be Presets to do those with "one button." Do not know when those came into being. I do not use them in PrE 4, and would not in PrE 8, or 9, as I want control, and also the ability to determine what MY subject is, in an image. No amount of AI can do that for me, so a simple Preset stands about a zero chance of doing exactly what I want.
At some point, PSE added the automatic Random Pan & Zoom. Again, were I doing a slideshow in it, I would not apply such, as i would Keyframe Motion>Position and Motion>Scale in PrE.
In PrE 3, I feel strongly that you have the Effects Control Panel (accessed via Edit Effects for a Clip/still), and the ability to Keyframe both Motion>Scale and Motion>Position. This allows one adjust the parameters for those Effects over time, i.e. create a Zoom, and create a Pan. Other than the fact that you do these by hand, by eye and by mind, but with ultimate control, you have the features - just not automatically applied via a single button.
Good luck,
Hunt

Is there a way to create a pan and zoom effect in a lightroom slideshow?

Nope. Be a great feature. For that I use FotoMagico after exporting JPEG's from LR.

Pan and zoom effect

Hi there,
How do you create a pan and zoom effect, like a video effect, on a picture? The technical term I believe is the Ken Burns effect from a still imagery. I know it can be done in Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro but I want to know if it is possible in InDesign (CS6). It tried the overlays option but it only created pan and zoom effect that the viewer needs to scroll. It want it to move by itself. I hope that makes sense ))
Thanks.

"Make sure that the container frame is smaller than the image. If the width or height of the frame and image are the same size, the object is treated as scrollable content."

I would be glad for the opportunity to customize a Premiere Elements 12 answer to your Premiere Elements 12 issue.
But, I want to make sure that we are together on the details. This is my understanding of what you have written. Please review and let me
know if I am misinterpreting anything that you have written.
You have a video created in Windows Movie Maker.
How did you output the video from Windows Movie Maker...wmv or mp4, what was the frame size and frame rate of that export?
Next you import that video into Premiere Elements 12 (can we assume that this is on Windows 7, 8, or 8.1 64 bit?)
From what you wrote, you have applied a pan and zoom effect to your video in Premiere Elements.
Now you go to export the Premiere Elements 12 Timeline content with your video with the pan and zoom applied.
But, the pan and zoom effect is not seen in playback of the export.
Is all of the above correct so far?
If so....we are going to need some more details from you...
a. What is the project preset that you or the project are setting to match the properties of the video coming from Movie maker? See Edit Menu/Project Settings/General and the readings for Editing Mode, Timebase, Frame Rate, and Pixel Aspect Ratio even if the fields look grayed out.
b. Are you applying the pan and zoom effect with the Pan and Zoom Tool, fx Effects Presets, or keyframing the Scale (for Zoom) and
Position (for Pan) in the Motion Panel expanded?
c. What are you selecting as your export in Publish+Share/. Please give details...are you using default settings or customizing the export
setting under the Advanced Button/Video Tab and Audio Tab of the preset selected?
I am suspecting some sort of mismatch of your project settings or some problems with working with the Pan and Zoom tool. I need
your answers to help me help you. If I have written anything that you do not understand, please let me know. I will re-write if necessary
so that we are in sync to resolve the issue.
Thanks.

Why does Pan and Zoom mess up my timeline

Please forgive my ignorance as I am relatively new to this.
I just about have a finished video which include video clips and still images. I just went to add a Pan and Zoom effect to a still image and when I hit done it messed up my timeline - See below
First picture is the finished movie
Second picture you can see I added a Pan and zoom to the still image the marker is on
I can see the Pan and Zoom effecting the track it's on but why does it effect multiple tracks and can you please tell me what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Looks like Premiere Elements 12. On what computer operating system. Just in case we need to get into version specific details.
But this looks like an Premiere Elements issue in general.
Use of the Premiere Elements Pan and Zoom Tool results in the increased duration for the still to which the pan and zoom effect has
been applied.. The extent of the increased duration depends on how many frames you added to the effect. That was a just in case mention, you may have
known all that already.
I point that out since the increased duration of your still probably triggered the chain reaction in all parts of the Timeine.
There are various maneuvers to control disturbances of the existing Timeline when a new component is added. In this case, at this time, I am not sure what triggered your particular chain of events. But, please look at the following as a possible control of the situation that you described.
Select all at one time the content that you want to stay together, click anywhere in the selection and select Group. You can ungroup
this group later if you want. The individual components of the Group will move as one until you ungroup. To make the selection of
all the clips going into the Group, draw a rectangle with the mouse cursor to select those clips.
Another thought might be to do the still pan and zoom in an isolated unused portion of the Timeline and then move it into place in the
existing Timeline, holding down the Ctrl or Alt key as you make the placement.
Please consider and then let us know if any of that worked for you.
Thank you.

Pan and Zoom won't stop!

Hi guys,
I used a pan and zoom effect on one section of my video,
And now for some reason it's just slowly zooming in as the video goes on, and I can't seem to remove the effect at all.
Please help!
- Matt

Matt
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
How did you apply the pan and zoom effect to your video? Please confirm that we are discussing pan and zoom effect applied to a video file and not a still.
a. Pan and Zoom Tool
b. Effects/Preset and one of the horizontal or vertical pan or zoom.
c. Keyframing the Scale property (for Zoom) and Position property (for Pan)?
With regard to "c"...if your clip is selected and you are in Properties Palette/Motion Panel expanded (Premiere Elements 10 and earlier) or Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded (Premiere Elements 11, 12, 13), is the Toggle Animation tab highlighted? Depending on your details, we could click on that and confirm that you want to remove keyframe(s) from the clip.
View from Premiere Elements 13 Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded....showing Toggle animation is the selected state.
We will be watching for your details to help us help you.

Permanantly disabling "ken burns" pan and zoom?

I never want to see the Ken Burns "pan and zoom" effect in my slideshows. I find it annoying and dizzying!
Every time i create a new slideshow, this effect is on by default. I have to go into the settings selection for each slideshow, and un-check it. There appears to be no setting to automatically disable this. I even found a "SlideShowAutoPanAndZoom" setting in the .plist file, set it to "NO", but that doesn't stop the behavior.
Does anybody know if there's any way to do this?
Thanks

I have a similar problem with music. Why does it
default to playing music and why can't you change the
default? This is really annoying.
I too disliked the auto-music, but managed to find a "brute force" way to kill that. It ain't pretty, but it works:
- create a silent MP3 file.
- name it "Minuet in G.mp3" (which is iPhoto's default music choice);
- store it over top of the existing minuet which lives in /Applications/iPhoto.app/Contents/Resources/Music/

Pan and Zoom Extending Photo Duration in Premiere Elements 11

I am new to using PE11, but have been using older versions of PE for many years. In years past, after setting up my photos with voiceover and getting the transitions in, I have used keyframes to create pan and zoom effects. In 11 though, this function no longer appears to work so I am trying to use the Pan and Zoom tool. While easy to use, it is messing with the length of my photos. I already have the photos timed just right with my voiceover, so I need the length of time they are shown to stay the same. I can't figure out how to do this in the pan and zoom tool and everything I find online with this issue is with older versions of PE so the advice given isn't helping. If I'm able to use keyframes, that would be great too - but I'm not seeing how to add them under the Applied Effects tool.
If anyone is able to help me, I would GREATLY appreciate it. I'm on a very tight deadline for work and was not expecting PE11 to be so different from previous versions!

With Premiere Elements 11 and 12, the photo that is panned and zoomed with its Pan and Zoom Tool is characterized by increased duration. It is what it is.
If you want to pan and zoom a photo using keyframing of the Motion properties of Scale (for Zoom) and Position (for Pan), then you would need to use Applied Effects Tab/Applied Effects Palette/ Motion Panel expanded and its Scale and Position properties there in association with Toggle Animation icon.
The shorter version of the Motion Panel Expanded looks like
To get the view where you can see the keyframes, click on the stop watch icon to the far right of the line with title Applied Effects.
Then you will see
Are you now on more familiar ground to move forward with your keyframing of the Scale and Postion properties for your
photo pans and zooms?
Please review and let me know if you are OK with the details.
Also, my blog post on Pan and Zoom Tool might be of interest.

Pan and Zoom Elements 11

Pan and zoom in Premire Elements 11, can it be resized, I see that it is preset for something like 3" tall x 5" wide, but what if you have a picture that is 5" tall x 3" wide? When I go into it, it starts in the middle of the picture, when I'm wanting the full picture to begain top to bottom.

srickie
I think that you need to refocus. Video involves pixels and not inches.
So, you need to focus
a. What are the pixel dimensions of your photos to which you want to add a pan and zoom effect in Premiere Elements 11, that is, width and height in pixels.
b. What did the project or you set for the project preset. If you did nothing, then you will be left with the project default of 1080i30 (1920 x 1080 16:9 @ 29.97 interlaced frames per second) if you have a NTSC setup and 1080i25 (1920 x 1080 16:9 @ 25 interlaced frames per second if you have a PAL setup.
Setting up the project correctly is important so that your source media fill the space established in the Edit Mode Monitor for editing purposes. And, the project preset directs the program as to what space to provide.
Now for the matter of pan and zoom in Premiere Elements 11 - ways include:
a. The Pan and Zoom Tool
b. Keyframing the Motion properties of Scale (for Zoom) and Position (for Pan)
c. Presets
What do you want to do with your Timeline content once you have edited it and applied effects such as pan and zoom?
Are you preparing for a DVD-VIDEO on DVD disc, Blu-ray disc format on Blu-ray disc, or do you just want to export a HD file and save it to the computer hard drive?
Please review and then we can go in whatever direction is needed to help you move forward in your Premiere Elements project.
Please do not hesitate to ask if you need clarification in anything that I have written. Important. Think pixels not inches.
Thanks.

How to set the duration of each pic in a slideshow (and also how to pan and zoom)

I have about 30 pictures I would like to add to a slide show.
When I add them the duration for each picture is set to 6 seconds.
I would like this changed to 4 seconds.
But manually changing the duration of each individual picture, one by one, is a slow and tedious task.
Is there a way of changing the duration of all my pictures at the same time, from 6 seconds to 4 seconds ?
Or can I change a setting so that when I insert my pictures the duration is set to 4 seconds instead of 6 seconds ?
As for the pan and zoom, I have seen the pan and zoom effect but this has a black border around the pictures as they zoom in and out.
For example, when zooming in the picture starts small with a black border all round the edge.
When zooming out the picture ends small with a black border all round the edge.
Is there a way to pan and zoom starting with a full screen when zooming in, and ending with a full screen when zooming out ?
Thereby not showing any ugly black borders.
My Nokia N73 phone can do it !
You can view the pictures as a slide show and when it pans and zooms it looks so much better because it does not show any black borders.
The picture ALWAYS fills the screen even though it is panning and zooming.

If you go to Edit/Preferences, you can set the default duration for each slide. This will affect only those photos you've imported into your project AFTER changing this preference.
You should also turn off the preference for Scale to Frame Size, so your photos do not fill the screen. (And, for efficiency's sake, make sure your source photos are no larger than 1000x750 pixels, per the FAQs at the top of this forum.)
You can also set the duration of each slide by selecting all of the stills you want to include on in your slideshow, right-clicking and selecting the Create Slideshow option.

Pan and Zoom and Resolution Settings

Okay I am starting a new project and I want to use allot of the Ken Burns, or Pan and Zoom effect. From previous discussions I was advised to scale my photos 2000 x 1500. Given that at what "resolution" to you recommend for the project?

AZ Aurora
If your goal is DVD-VIDEO Standard 4:3 on DVD disc and you have all photos (4320 x 3240 4:3 and 3456 x 2304 3:2), then you do not want any project preset settings described for 16:9.
There are a lot of ways to do this, but stay with NTSC DV Standard as your project preset under the conditions above.
This is one way....
The sizing of your photos can cause problems depending on and in spite of your computer resources....especially if you have about 500 photos. Suggested batch resizing is to 1000 x 750 4:3 for landscape oriented photos. Higher than that, whatever you can get away with without jeopardizing the stability of the project for import, edit, and export.
Set the project preset manually for NTSC DV Standard
        How to is at the end of the following
        http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2013/04/pe11-accuracy-of-automatic-project.html
Go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General and remove the check mark next to Default Scale to Frame Size
Bring in your photos sized to 1000 x 750 4:3, 2000 x 750 4:3, or the original size 4320 x 3240 4:3 or 3456 x 2304 3:2) - whatever you can get away with. Recommended 1000 x 750 4:3. Remember, no matter how high the resolution of the import, it will be reduced to the sizing of the end product format.
When you drag each to the Timeline, they will appear zoomed in. Ignore that and apply Tools Menu/Pan and Zoom
When you click Done in the Pan and Zoom workspace and you are back in the Editor workspace, scale the Timeline's panned and zoomed image in the
         Edit area monitor as wanted.
Please try this on a mini test run to test the merits of this approach. We can discuss alternatives if necessary.
Thanks.

Pan and zoom over multiple still pictures

Is there a way to apply general pan and zoom over multiple still pictures simultaneously? I seem to remember doing this in PE10, but don't recall the steps.

Chuck700
If you are in Premiere Elements 10 Windows and not using the program's Pan and Zoom Tool, the suggestion is to apply a pan and zoom effect to the one photo.
Then, select that photo, Edit Menu/Copy. Then, select all the photos that you want to have the same pan and zoom effect.
Now Edit Menu/Paste Attributes.
There is no "Apply Pan & Zoom to all Slides" for this as in the Photoshop Elements Elements Organizer Elements Slideshow Editor preferences.
I suppose you could create your slideshow in Premiere Elements 10's Elements Organizer Create/Slideshow so that you
could use this "Apply Pan & Zoom to all Slides" for the pans and zooms, and then use theElements Organizer Slideshow Editor's Output option "Edit with Premiere Elements Editor" to get the slideshow into the Premiere Elements workspace.
If you are using Premiere Elements 10 or 11's Pan and Zoom Tool, then please check out my blog post on the topic of applying the same pan and zoom effect to more than one photo.

Pan and Zoom (Ken Burns Effect)

Does iDVD 06 support the Ken Burns Effect? When I import a Slide Show from iPhoto to iDVD it looses the transitions and the pan and zoom features. I can add the transitions back through iDVD, but I can't find anywhere to add the Ken Burns effect back to the slide show? Is it possible? I will be really disappointed if iDVD 06 does not support this feature.

Welcome to iDVD Discussions.
I don't use iPhoto, so I can't help you with that, but I can tell you that iDVD does NOT have the KB Effect.

Pan and Zoom in a Windows instead of Full Screen?

Hi,
Tried using the Pan & Zoom and found it very difficult to work with. I had an image I wanted to be displayed on the screen but I only wanted it to use 1/3 of the screen. I sized the image and then went to pan/zoom. The image re-sized to full screen and then from there I could use the tool. Is there a way to use this tool but have the image remain the same size I set previously?

protivakid
What are you now using for pan and zoom? Is it the Premiere Elements 12 Pan and Zoom Tool under Tools Menu?
For starter, please take a look at the Steve Grisetti free video tutorial on the basics of using the Premiere Elements Pan and Zoom Tool as found in versions 11 or 12.
http://www.lynda.com/Elements-tutorials/Creating-motion-path-Pan-Zoom-tool/109763/117259-4 .html
If that does not help, we can go into more details, those specific to your particular requirements.
If all else fails, you can always go the non Pan and Zoom Tool route for your pans and zooms. To do that, you would keyframe the Motion Scale property (Zoom) and the Position property (Pan). See Applied Effects/Applied Effects Palette/Motion Panel expanded to reveal its properties which include Scale and Position.
Please review and consider and let us know what supplemental information you need.
Thank you.
