Crash Zoom — AI Camera Motion Preset
Zero to face in half a second.
The whip-fast zoom that music videos and trailers abuse for a reason. The camera slams from a wide shot straight into your subject's face with a punch of motion blur, then settles. Instant energy, instant attitude — perfect for a clip that has to grab attention in the first second.
