I cant get it to cut back to her

That’s what I meant by debug commands , when I use the “camera” it just zooms on a random dark area and won’t let me pan out of it

@Farah_DeSantis

even when you click reset zoom?

nope

this is what i’m Using:

Background:

Fake background:

Also it zooms out to show the static when it’s not supposed to:

@Dara.Amarie

if it is zoomed already on the start of the scene add @zoom reset just under the background.

If you have zoom in previouse scene it carries the zoom to the next BG therefore you need to reset the zoom

Also you are zooming as I see. So what it should zoom at when you dont want to zoom on the static?

It should focus on Jane and the guy behind the counter, so we can focus on them talking

I tried that, it didn’t work

delete the zoom you have in the script since it is not the zoom you wanted.
reset the zoom
switch to the zone where the zoom should happen
use preview window canera to zoom where you need to
copy the zoom coordinates to the script

The first zoom out happens for a slpit second, I don’t know what’s causing it and I can’t zoom in in time

@Farah_DeSantis

again delete all the zooms in this specific scene and add zoom reset on the start under the background.
Than it cant be zoomed anymore.

Have you done this?

But then, it can’t be zoomed on the spot I want it to
