How to Add a Zoom Effect with Keyframes in CapCut on PC

Hello. In this tutorial, I will show you how to create a smooth, custom zoom effect using keyframes in CapCut on your computer. Step 1: Select the video clip on your timeline where you want to add the zoom. Step 2: Move the playhead on the timeline to the exact point where you want the zoom animation to begin. Step 3: Click the "Keyframe" icon (usually a diamond shape) near the Scale to add your first keyframe marker at this position. Step 4: Now, move the playhead forward to the point where you want the zoom to finish. Step 5: With the clip still selected, go to the video settings on the right. Increase the "Scale" value to zoom in on your video. You will see a second keyframe is added automatically at this new playhead position. Step 6: CapCut will now generate a smooth zoom animation between the two keyframes. You can play the clip to preview the effect. Step 7: To create a more complex movement, such as zooming in and then back out, you can add additional keyframes and adjust the scale at each point. This keyframe method gives you full control over your zoom animation. Thank you for watching.
