One photo. A planet-sized camera move.
Earth Zoom AI Video Generator
Earth zoom AI turns a photo into a video that travels between your scene and Earth in space. Fly out to orbit or zoom in to your photo with the camera effect popularized by Higgsfield.
5 or 10 seconds · 9:16 or 16:9 · From 9 credits · AI-generated scenery, not a live satellite map
Make your Earth zoom video
1. Upload your photo
JPG, PNG or WebP · Up to 10 MB · At least 300 px on the short side. A clear outdoor scene with some sky works best.
2. Choose the camera direction
3. Model, length and quality
9:16 for a vertical Reel; 16:9 for a landscape video. Match your photo to the frame to reduce reframing.
Optional scene details, such as a coastal neighborhood or warm evening light. The direction preset already includes the camera move.
Start with one photo of a person, pet, building or landscape.
Saved to your account with no automatic public posting. Media uses unlisted links; anyone with a direct file link can open it.
Unpaid accounts get a moving site watermark. Any completed pack or plan purchase unlocks the clean download.

Earth zoom in AI or earth zoom out AI?
Earth zoom out starts in your photograph, rises over a neighborhood and clouds, and ends on the whole planet. Earth zoom in makes the opposite journey and settles on your photograph. Both are short generated camera moves: the people stay on the ground while the camera travels.
| Direction | Starts with | Ends with | Use it for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zoom out | Your photo | Earth in space | A closing reveal, scale joke or pull-back transition |
| Zoom in | Earth in space | Your photo | An opening shot that lands on a person, place or travel clip |
Your upload and a fixed AI Earth image anchor the first and last frames. The model creates the journey between them. Faces and details can still drift during motion; endpoint images guide the result rather than guarantee an exact match.
Earth zoom effect examples in both directions
Compare a portrait rooftop pull-back with a descent toward a lighthouse, then watch the landscape versions. These clips show different scenes and camera paths; your photo, settings and model determine your result.

How to make an earth zoom AI video
- 01
Choose a photo with context
Upload a clear outdoor photo with the subject, some ground and nearby buildings or landscape visible. Avoid a face-only crop. For a Reel, prepare a vertical photo before uploading.
- 02
Pick the direction and format
Choose Zoom out to leave your photo or Zoom in to land on it. Select 5 or 10 seconds, a resolution and 9:16 or 16:9. Mini defaults to 5 seconds at 720p for 18 credits; Pro adds 1080p.
- 03
Generate, check and download
Sign in, confirm permission and check the credit price before generating. Preview the face, the transition and the final frame, then download the MP4. Your video remains in Creations when you leave the page.
Does Earth zoom AI show your real location?
The city, roads, coastline and clouds between your photo and the globe are invented by the video model. This tool does not read a GPS coordinate, fetch satellite tiles or reconstruct your actual neighborhood. A recognizable landmark in the photo does not make the surrounding geography accurate.
For a property address, delivery route or documentary map, use verified map or satellite footage in your editor. Use this effect for a cinematic transition, and avoid presenting its invented streets as location evidence. It is separate from the Zoom Earth weather-map service.
Which photos make a cleaner earth zoom effect?
| Photo or problem | What to try |
|---|---|
| Outdoor portrait | Keep the face sharp, with shoulders or the whole body and enough street, ground or sky to establish scale. A stationary subject gives the camera one clear job. |
| Indoor selfie or plain background | There is less spatial information for the model to extend. It may invent a room exit or suddenly replace the background. Use an outdoor photo when a continuous ascent matters. |
| Two people or a pet | Both faces should be visible and separated. Avoid overlapping limbs, a pet hiding behind a person or a tiny face. The camera should move while everyone keeps a simple pose. |
| Face changes or a jump in the scene | Use a sharper photo, remove extra action from the optional note, and try 10 seconds for more travel time. The preset asks for a brief hold at the photo endpoint. A completed result can still contain artifacts. |
Earth zoom AI free credits, prices and watermarks
Each generation uses credits. Direction, frame shape and the optional sound setting do not change the price. Choose a model, length and resolution to see the exact charge before you start.
| Model / resolution | 5 seconds | 10 seconds |
|---|---|---|
| Seedance 2.0 Mini · 480p | 9 credits · ≈$0.25 | 17 credits · ≈$0.47 |
| Seedance 2.0 Mini · 720p | 18 credits · ≈$0.50 | 36 credits · ≈$1.00 |
| Seedance 2.0 Pro · 480p | 30 credits · ≈$0.83 | 60 credits · ≈$1.66 |
| Seedance 2.0 Pro · 720p | 65 credits · ≈$1.80 | 129 credits · ≈$3.58 |
| Seedance 2.0 Pro · 1080p | 160 credits · ≈$4.44 | 320 credits · ≈$8.87 |
Dollar equivalents use Studio monthly: $49.90 for 1,800 credits ($0.02772 per credit). They are not separate pay-per-video checkout prices. A new generation or a manual retry costs credits again.
| Access or purchase | What you get |
|---|---|
| Free signup allowance | Eligible new accounts currently receive up to 5 credits, valid for 7 days. That is below this tool’s 9-credit minimum, so the signup bonus alone covers 0 Earth zoom videos. There is no daily free-render allowance. |
| One-time Trial pack | $5 buys 24 credits with no subscription. This covers 2 Mini videos at 5 s / 480p (9 each), or 1 at 5 s / 720p (18), with credits left over. |
| Monthly subscriptions | Creator: $29.90 / 800 credits. Studio: $49.90 / 1,800 credits. Monthly credits expire at the paid billing period’s end; one-time pack credits last 365 days. |
| Watermark and downloads | Unpaid-account videos carry the moving site watermark. Any completed pack or subscription purchase unlocks the clean MP4. There is no separate download charge. |
| Failed video or unwanted result | A failed generation returns its credits. A successfully delivered clip with a face distortion, an inaccurate city or a style you dislike is still a completed generation; a new attempt is charged again. |
Use your earth zoom AI transition in CapCut
For a travel intro, export the first frame of your real footage as a photo, use it as the Zoom in destination, and choose the same frame shape. Import the resulting MP4 before your travel clip and trim the final hold to the cut. Small differences in lighting or framing may need a short dissolve.
An earth zoom template in CapCut is an editing arrangement. This tool creates a new video from your photo; it does not export a CapCut template project. You can import its MP4 into CapCut or another editor, add a licensed music track, and align the planet reveal with the beat. Optional generated sound here is ambience, not a particular trend song.
The camera direction is already built into each preset. Use the optional note for a setting or lighting detail; piling on waves, dances or outfit changes makes it harder to preserve a face during a fast zoom.
Earth Zoom AI questions
Can earth zoom in AI end on my own photo?
Yes. Zoom in sends the fixed Earth image as the first frame and your upload as the last frame. Zoom out swaps those endpoints. The model creates the middle of the shot, so the face and setting may still shift before it reaches the endpoint.
Is the city in an earth zoom out AI video real satellite imagery?
No. The streets, terrain and clouds in the transition are generated. This page does not retrieve satellite imagery or verify the place in your photo. It makes a visual effect, not a geographically accurate map animation.
Can I use an indoor selfie or a solid-color background?
You can upload one, but it gives the model little information about the surrounding space. The camera may appear to jump out of a room or replace the background. A sharp outdoor photo with visible ground, buildings or sky is a better starting point.
How do I stop my face changing during the zoom?
Start with a clear face, keep the subject’s pose simple and leave out gestures or speech. The preset holds near the photo endpoint before or after the camera journey. Try 10 seconds for more travel time. These choices can help, but this tool cannot guarantee an unchanged face in every frame.
Is earth zoom AI free without a watermark?
This tool is credit-based. Eligible signup gifts are up to 5 credits for 7 days, below the minimum 9-credit video, with no daily free video allocation. Unpaid accounts get a moving watermark. A completed purchase, including the $5 pack with 24 credits, unlocks clean MP4 downloads.
Can I make a 9:16 earth zoom AI video in 1080p with music?
Choose 9:16 and Seedance 2.0 Pro at 1080p: 160 credits for 5 seconds or 320 for 10 seconds. Mini supports 480p and 720p. The sound toggle requests generated ambience without music; add a track you may use in your social app or editor after downloading.
Do failed videos and retries use credits?
Credits are returned when generation fails. A delivered video with a distorted face or an unsatisfactory transition is a completed result. Starting a new generation or retrying it uses credits again; check the selected settings and price first.
