Spotlight Zoom template: a grid where each card zooms to fill the frame

How Spotlight Zoom moves

Spotlight Zoom starts on a 2x2 grid and gives each card a turn: it zooms up to cover the whole grid, holds, and settles back while the others dim behind it. Every image gets both an overview moment and a full-size moment. Four slots, a 12 second loop. A strong fit for showing four app screens or four campaign visuals, at 16:9 or 1:1.

In the studio you can tune its 5 settings along with the background, shadow and loop length, and your images never leave your device.
