What Is the Earth Zoom Effect?
The earth zoom effect is a short clip that starts on an ordinary photo, such as a person on a rooftop, a beach or a street, and pulls the camera straight up until the whole planet is in the frame. In a few seconds it goes from one small moment to the scale of the Earth, which is why creators use it to open or close a video.
On this page the effect runs one way: from your photo out to space. The first frame is your photo as it is. The streets, the city, the coastline and the planet after it are generated by the AI and do not show the real place where the photo was taken.
AI Earth Zoom From a Single Photo
One Shot From Your Photo to Space
The camera rises without a cut: your spot, the streets and rooftops around it, the city, the coastline through thin clouds, then the curve of the Earth and finally the whole planet.
Your Photo Is the First Frame
The clip opens on your photo exactly as you uploaded it, so the people and the place are your own. Everything the camera shows after it leaves them is generated.
Wind and Space Sound
The quiet sound of the place turns into rushing wind as the camera climbs, then into a soft hum of space. There is no music and no voice.
5 or 10 Seconds, No Prompt
Pick the length and 480p or 768p, then generate. The video takes the shape of your photo: a vertical photo gives a vertical clip, a horizontal one a widescreen clip.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the earth zoom out effect?
It is a video that begins on your photo and then pulls back and up, through the neighborhood, the city and the coastline, until the whole Earth is seen from space. You get a 5 or 10 second MP4 to download and post.
How do I make an earth zoom out video from a photo?
Upload one photo at the top of this page, choose 5 or 10 seconds and 480p or 768p, and press the button. The price of the clip is shown on the button before you start, and the finished video is saved in your account.
Is earth zoom in the same as earth zoom out?
They are the same shot in opposite directions. An earth zoom in starts from space and dives down into a place; an earth zoom out starts at the place and rises to space. This page makes the earth zoom out only; it does not make an earth zoom in from space.
What kind of photo works best?
An outdoor photo with open sky above, such as a person on a rooftop, a beach, a street or a field, with the person or the place near the middle of the frame. Upload photos you have the right to use; photos of celebrities, public figures and minors are not allowed.
Do I need a map or a location?
No. You only upload the photo. The streets, the city, the coastline and the continents in the video are generated by the AI and do not match the real location of your photo.
Does it zoom out to the whole universe?
No. The shot ends on the whole Earth in black space. It does not continue out to the solar system, the galaxy or the universe.
Is the earth zoom out effect free?
New accounts get free welcome credits, with no card required. The price of each clip is shown on the button before you generate, and credits for a failed generation are returned.
Do I need to write a prompt?
No. The earth zoom effect AI on this page uses a fixed camera move, so there is no text box. To write your own motion for a photo, the image to video generator on the home page takes a prompt.
Does the video have sound?
Yes. The quiet sound of the place turns into rising wind and then a soft hum of space. There is no music and no voice, so you can add your own track when you post it.
Can I use it on TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Reels?
Yes. The video keeps the shape of your photo, so a vertical photo gives a vertical clip for TikTok, Shorts and Reels. Commercial use is subject to our Terms of Service.
