In this post, I’ll walk through the steps ofĬreating slideshows using the Ken Burns effect. Need a new tool: you can get the same result using justįFMpeg. Where and how much pictures should be zoomed. Tool to create slideshow movies that used this effect, with full control over It always sounded like a fun project to create a standalone Instead of just showing a simple slideshow of yourĮffect with a fancy fading transition to make the otherwise static pictures Finally, if you managed to export vertical or square videos without a watermark in our staging account we've fixed that little loophole.One of the first things that impressed me about Mac OS X when I first saw it We fixed a couple of bugs thumbnails and poster images at second 0 export the first frame instead of an empty frame, and the soundtrack volume can now have the volume set to 0.

You can now add volume effects (fade in and fade out) to audio assets. To export videos at 4:5 just set the aspect ratio to 4:5 in the output settings. If you are automating videos for Instagram this is the aspect ratio you have been waiting for. Support for 4:5 vertical video aspect ratio preferred by Instagram has been added. You can now edit podcasts, create personalised podcast ads or automatically insert ads into a podcast in a matter of minutes. Shotstack doesn't just have to be about video, we've released a dedicated mp3 export type so you can now edit and export audio only. Our API reference docs have been updated with the latest range render output option. It's also useful if you want to preview just a small section of a video before rendering the whole video. For example, you want to create a 5 second gif preview to insert into an email or a 15 second snippet for social media. This can be useful when you want to create a short preview of your video. Render just part (range) of a video by specifying a start point and a length. Check out our complete guide to frame rate and fps settings to chose the best frame rate for your video.

Whether you want to make the most of modern digital devices that shoot at 30 fps, recreate a cinematic 24 frame rate effect or create gifs with smaller file sizes, now you can with our custom FPS settings. You can check our API docs to see how to crop a video or image asset.
