Zoom out from your photo to outer space
Earth Zoom starts on your exact photo, then pulls the camera back and up without stopping: above the scene, over the rooftops and the city, through the clouds, until the whole planet is in view from space. It's one seamless move that speeds up as it goes. Travelers and vloggers looking for a dramatic intro will find a use for it.

Questions about this effect
Does it show my real location from space?
No. It creates a believable zoom-out, but the rooftops, city and view of Earth are generated, not real maps or satellite images.
Can I use an indoor photo?
Outdoor photos work best, because the camera has to rise above the scene. Indoors, the move is less convincing.
Can I use a selfie?
Yes, a selfie taken outside works fine. The zoom starts on you and pulls back from there.
How long does it take?
Most videos are ready in a few minutes. You can leave the page; your video waits for you under Your videos.
