In this video tutorial, we will demonstrate how to create a dynamic close up zoom transition effect in Adobe After Effects. This effect will smoothly transition between a wide-angle shot and a closer shot of your subject.
To start, you'll need two shots: one taken from a wide angle and another taken closer to your subject. These shots will be used to create a seamless zoom transition. You can either shoot your own footage or download the footage used in this tutorial to follow along easily.
Begin by dragging both footage clips into a new composition. Zoom in on your wide shot towards a point that will blend seamlessly with the transition to your close up shot. Apply motion blur to enhance the transition's smoothness and blend the shots together effectively.
