Zoom/Pan on Photos

[Guest]

I would like to zoom and pan on photos. How can I do this? I know that I could use the SpiceFX pack, but it costs money . Any free things?

There's an ease-in effect within MovieMaker 2.0 which will do a slight zoom
on photos (& video) which can be quite effective. However if you just have
photos then you may want to check out PhotoStory which will do automatic
zooms and pans and can produce very good effects with the minimal amount of
work.

Here's the link and there is a trial to download to see if you like it.

Dean,
I'm going through the same process, and just bought
Microsoft Plus! Digital Media so that I would be able to
pan and zoom. Unfortunately, I am working on this project
as a surprise for my wife, to give to her after the birth
of our first child, and the date is approaching WAY too
rapidly. If I had more time, I would try to find this
answer without wasting a post, but HOW can I do this once
I install Digital Media? I was expecting the Pan and Zoom
Video Effects to be installed automatically in Movie Maker
2, but they aren't. How can I use this effect to pan and
zoom on pictures IN Movie Maker?

Thanks for the help, from a stressed out future father.

Check www.photostory.papajohn.org for info about Photo Story and using it
conjunction with Movie Maker... but it's a separate program
