In the Edit tab, rather than force Dynamic Zoom to be applied to entire clips, beginning at the start of a clip, and ending at the very end of a clip, it would be nice if we could create In and Out points using keyframes so that, for example, one could apply multiple Dynamic Zooms to one clip, resuming the zoom from where the previous one left off.
I know the Blade tool can cut a clip to make the Dynamic Zoom end there, but then you have to copy the clip and swap the Dynamic Zoom green and red rectangles (start and end positions) to make it resume from there. And requiring an actual clip cut can be problematic in certain situations, like if the clip you are working with is a Fusion clip. Cutting a Fusion clip restarts the entire clip after the cut.
Being able to have a clip, which could be a composite of many elements, and have it play at 1x for a few seconds, then initiate the Dynamic Zoom when you specify to zoom into 2x and also move over to the top left of the image, then hold that last frame, stay there with the clip continuing to play, then proceed from there to another Dynamic Zoom and another position, etc. would be great because it's so easy to just create your Red and Green rectangles in order to let Dynamic Zoom do the work of smooth movement along X and Y and zooming transformations.
I previously requested the feature to integrate Dynamic Zoom into Fusion itself as well. Dynamic Zoom is very user friendly because you don't have to get bogged down in keyframes and spline curves to try to mathematically figure out how to make things smooth and graceful. You can just put your view where you want and the math is done for you.
