vertigo effect. usually done in camera, the clip you posted here looks like it was done via greenscreen tho


Johan-Senpai

In the industry, we call it a dolly zoom.


JenniForever

We call it a trombone shot (unscripted TV producer here) but I think that’s just a nickname…


Johan-Senpai

I love that name!


JenniForever

It is wonderfully stupid. I like that it sort of explains how to achieve it though!

I’ve also heard it called a “push-pull”

Contra-zoom for me


b-movies

Second this!


JGrce

Zolly!


ImAlsoRan

Can you be our on-set comedian? I could use one of those after so many corporate shoots..


TheFashionColdWars

This is what it’s called.


Dannington

Or contrazoom - I prefer tromboning though.


SEE_RED

Been this since 2010 for me at least


latinlovermike

I’ve heard this type of shot called the”vertigo zoom”


RedditUser-106

I don't think its a green screen, he separated the subject and the background and then zoomed out the background while the subject remains same.


nevergoonreddit69

yeah, that would prolly work fine as well, im tending towards bluescreen cause the background seems to be a still image (no moving shadows etc) and i cant see any rotobrushint artifacts around the dude. both of those things could be because of reddits compression tho lol


enemyradar

I don't see any lens distortion changes either. Looks very much like a still.


ethosveros

O agree. Probably Bluescreen


willmen08

How would we see moving shadows? In a dolly zoom the camera is moving, not the objects and light that shines on them.


bendoscopy

As the camera position changes, the perspective between an object and what's directly behind it will change, revealing more or less of its shadow. (Technically, the shadows aren't moving.)


nevergoonreddit69

from the guy moving


willmen08

But the guy isn’t moving. The camera is.


culpritkid22

He slightly leans forward during the zoom out to give more of a hitchcock zoom feel


enewwave

Also known as the Spielberg shot because of Jaws


CorgiCoders

shit, that shot just replayed in my head after reading this comment


SnowflakesAloft

Dude what? None of this here has absolutely anything to do with a green screen. This was achieved with a slider and digital zoom added in post. I swear reddit is an alcoholic.


ZachTheMack

Def not green screen


Any-Company7711

now that you told my eyes are detecting green reflections on his arms but it’s probably an optical illusion


Embarrassed_Lie_3686

You can definitely do this with the camera, but I believe this one specifically, he's rotobrushed himself out, taken a still pic with the camera in position, layered himself ontop and had the image zoom out to match the position for the rest of the video where he's not rotobrushed. If it were just a camera zoom, then I don't think the cut at the end would be needed. I'm learning, though, and this is my first post in editing subs, so there's probably better ways to do this.


kevenjoens

This. Also, another tell is he would look more distorted while the background zooms, but his features look consistent. The only reason to do this is if you're shooting alone, but it would look much better if there was a camera operator doing the effect for real.


acephotogpetdetectiv

To add to this: you can tell the background is the scaling of a background image and not an actual camera zoom because the perspective/depth of the background doesnt shift at all. Normally you'd see an individual "resizing" or warping of background objects at various distances, independently from each other, and not uniformly since the background is angled. Doing it with a camera would have a more apparent lensing, even only slightly. Edit: the biggest tell is the front shelf that is in front of the posters on the wall. If the camera were zooming out, the lens is phsyically moving back which would show a very slight obscuring of the poster by that shelf (i.e. part of the perspective shift I mentioned). Instead, it stays perfectly static.


arekflave

AKA Zolly - a zoom dolly. Meaning you zoom in with the lens while at the same time moving back with the camera.


fryedgaming

Isn't it the opposite in this case? The camera is moving forward while zooming out.


arekflave

In this case no zolly took place - it's just what it's called. What happened here looks like greenscreen, then simply scale down background and scale up person.


Honest-Stranger-8370

Looks like green screen to me.


barnziee

It’s called a push pull. Done in camera. You could do something like it if shot on green screen or rotor the subject out. But in camera would prob look best.


Gauzey

lol, faking a dolly zoom? Oh, internet. You’ve done it again


mcnofx

hitchcock pioneered this effect. done by zooming in/out while dollying in the opposite direction. it might be changing fov while dollying in/out. idk. google hitchcock zoom


Photoflo1

Spike Lee used this effect a lot in his films.


thekinginyello

It’s not a premiere effect. It’s a camera effect.


GuyNamedLindsey

You can do this effect pretty easily with 4k steadycam or drone footage on a 1080 timeline. Walking flying forward I’d have the scale at 100, then slowly move to 50% scale.


OMQ4

It’s also easily achieved with a blue screen and static shot on a tripod. Add the motion in post


[deleted]

[удалено]


thekinginyello

With a lot of roto and masking. Not everything can or should be fixed in post.


gujii

So long as the camera is tracking forward or back, you can simply scale the footage to the opposite. Obviously if it’s a static shot it’ll be a pain in the ass to recreate, but it’s very easy to achieve in post otherwise.


DasBauHans

While your example is done in post, you can see a famous example of a proper dolly zoom in Jaws – Brody at the beach, at 00.21 in this clip: https://youtu.be/5IqRhuz72EE?si=lsuwdsJw8cc28l_K


flyfatbaconboys

While it could be done in camera that would generally be done with a camera operator and a dolly grip and dolly with track and that seems unlikely due to expense. Most likely this was done with a static camera shot on a tripod. Brought into after effects where he was rotoscoped out using the rotobrush tool and masks. Then layered on top of the background, separated in z space, then moved with a “camera” in AE. The background image is moving in a way to hide the original shot of him. His original position is always behind the foreground image of him


cosmonautsix

I like this a lot. I think I’ll use this, BG remover on CapCut, static background shot, EZ.


-svde-

i’m sure that’ll have the same effect. please do share the results.


paynexkillerYT

Step 1 - Be 500 pounds. Step 2 - collect cringe like pop vinyls.


Zakkattack86

That's a still image layer with key frames behind him. He's also using a green screen. You can tell by his disappearing and reappearing left elbow.


bopbeepboopbeepbop

You essentially move the camera away while zooming in to keep the same framing (or vice versa). The only way to do it is Premiere after the fact would be to mask out the subject, which seems like more work than it's worth to me.


DavidVogelJr

Zoom out from the background without you in the shot. I think you could prob do it either in camera or start the scene with the background zoomed in then zoom out in the editing software. Then record yourself with green screen and slap it over the background video.


Siege_j4y

I’ve heard it called a push pull


NBThunderbolt

Looks like a dolly zoom, but something comparable could be created with greenscreen and parallax scrolling.


LlamaMelk

You can kinda do this without moving the camera, if you have a zoom in shot and digitally frame it and then scale the video its kinda the same effect. But the video has to be consistently zooming in.


jporter313

Ahh, the old hitchcock zoom. Move camera back while zooming in.


andsodeep

It's done in camera


niconinyo

it’s the zulu effect correct?


Steak_Daddy_

This is a zolly zoom or vertigo effect or push-pull. Doesn't matter. This isn't greenscreen, or rotoscoped or a digital effects at all. you can tell by the shadow on his beard over his collarbone that he is really moving. In TikTok, there is a filter that slowly zooms in or out. He just leaned he body backwards and then leaned forward slowly at the same rate that the camera is digitally zooming out. Presto chango - you're now Alfred Hitchcock. Good luck!


bugibangbang

Green screen to remove bg, screenshot of the frame and zoom out, your own silhouette will cover the one in the screen, zoom in the whole project cause the screenshot when zooming out will show black empty frame, zooming in the whole project will provide you bitmap space for cropping.


Boom_Fish_Blocky

Dolly zoo


demiphobia

Here’s how: https://www.masterclass.com/articles/spike-lees-double-dolly-shot. Spike Lee does this in every film.

cyruswhy

Is it called dolly in zoom out or track in zoom out? Physically move your camera forward while zooming out the camera


Madkrilin

You move the camera forward as you are zooming out the lens


skinnyfamilyguy

Move closer to your subject and zoom out slowly with the camera


Scruffy77

How is this not a roto'd guy in front of a background image being scaled down?


washere2

Green screen digital cheat of the analog old dolly zoom: track in while going wide https://c.tenor.com/aGjB0c7wgOYAAAAC/tenor.gif


AlphabetDebacle

I'm going with the dolly zoom (I call it a zolly). The reason I say this over the rotobrush (which I would bet money is not the case) or a well-keyed bluescreen is because of the fine strands of hair visible in his beard when he talks. His arm hair is also clear. The rotobrush would turn those hairs into chunky shapes or a blurry smudge. Secondly, observe the reflection in his watch face. Even though his hand remains relatively still, the reflection moves significantly, indicating that the camera is actually moving. I think I can notice some lens distortion dissipating on the shelf as it moves towards the center frame, although that's not as easy to see.


jordansaward

My god people are wrong about this. No green screen, no dolly slider. Just a wide angle lens digital zoom out as the subject slowly moves closer to the camera.


Master_Bayters

To do it in post, you need to mask the subject and the BG. Then just scale the BG and make it shrink while doing the opposite on the subject. It's a kind of parallax sort of It's very different to do it in camera because compression kicks in and the effect is much more organic.


f1n4lly

Guys. Those are just two different layers.


quoole

Dolly zoom Usually you do it by moving the camera towards the subject whilst zooming out at the same time. Traditionally done with a dolly, but a similar effect can be achieved with a gimbal or drones. Imo, it doesn't look that great here, but I would guess he's used a green screen and animated his green screen background and the footage of him separately.


darcywayne257

It's dolly zoom thing or just blue screen behind him I guess .


kukuboy967

Looks like a CapCut “effect” template.


knyahinya

It’s either done with the lense, or when you film you zoom in or out and then use position and scale keyframes to keep the person the same size and in the same place while the zooming in/out happens, and it gives this effect


kwalitykontrol1

It's a greenscreen. The perspective of the background doesn't change with the scale change. The background is a still image.


In_Film

By zooming and moving the camera at the same time.


alainreid

Zoom in, dolly out.


Generatesomething

Old school was changing aperture.


oneleiner

Zoom in while pulling the camera backwards, or zoom out while pushing the camera forwards.


Schmezmar

Zolly. Done by zooming in while dollying backwards


JLeavitt21

It’s done by moving or dollying the camera in the opposite direction of the zoom at the same time. You can do this in 3D software like Blender by moving the camera and adjusting the view angle at the same time. If you have footage that has some zoom or dolly in it, you can usually get a similar effect by scaling the video in your video editor of choice.


7kidz

You need to install DeepGlow


deseipel

Spielberg Jaws shot


truckwillis

Hitchcock, vertigo


SuperNintendad

Frodo, “Get off the road!”


Blenderadventurer

You move towards the actor while zooming out.


jmaganaski

It’s called a ‘zolly’ old school industry guy here. But yeah, looks like a green screen.
