Shrink the camera bubble during a zoom to give the screen more room and keep the detail you are showing clear.

Turn on camera shrinking

  1. Open a video that contains both a screen recording and a camera bubble.
  2. Click Effect in the editor sidebar, or press E.
  3. Under Zooms, expand Advanced zoom settings.
  4. Turn on Shrink camera during zooms.
The camera bubble automatically becomes smaller while a screen zoom is active, then returns to its layout size when the zoom ends. Your recording and layout stay unchanged.
This setting has no visible effect on clips without a camera bubble.

Change the setting on one clip

Camera shrinking uses the video-wide setting by default. To change it for only the current clip:
  1. Open Effect on that clip.
  2. Under Zooms, expand Advanced zoom settings.
  3. Turn on Adjust this clip.
  4. Turn Shrink camera during zooms on or off.
Turn off Adjust this clip to make the clip use the video-wide setting again.

Keep the camera at the same size

Turn off Shrink camera during zooms when the speaker should remain equally prominent throughout the video. You can also use Layouts to change the camera’s normal size and position.
