Tips
Ken Burns Effect
The classic cinematic effect used in documentaries. Combines slow zoom with a gentle pan for a professional, movie-like feel.
Best Size for Sharing
320px is ideal for WhatsApp and messaging apps. Use 480px for social media. Larger sizes make bigger file sizes.
Faster Generation
Lower FPS (8–12) creates smaller files that generate faster. Higher FPS (18–24) gives smoother animation but takes longer.
