Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Dolly Zoom effect?
Also known as the 'Vertigo effect', it's a cinematic technique where the camera zooms in while moving backward (or vice versa), keeping the subject the same size while the background perspective distorts dramatically.
Can I do a Dolly Zoom with a phone?
Physically, it's very difficult without a gimbal and zoom lens. However, Visionary's AI allows you to apply this complex camera move to any standard video in post-production.
What video works best?
Videos where the subject is static against a deep background (like a long hallway or street) work best to maximize the visual distortion of the background.
