			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Ok, so I would just hold the camera still and animate, then After Effects (or whatever) would implement the zoom effect afterwards. The only problem I see with this is that your footage loses quality, as you systematically delete pixels around a certain section of your images. But then, it won't be a problem for me as my native uncompressed resolution is about 2 GB for 4 seconds of video. Crazy, I know! :) 

Thanks for your replies, guys.]]></content>

Very impressive results. Comparing that video with tests that I've done, I have this to say: It is a difference of style. Doing it all with the physical camera gives it the stop-motion feel, whereas doing it in post-production gives it a more professional feel (but also more out of place compared with the animation). I suppose it all depends on what sort of mood you're going for, and whether you're more comfortable with stop-motion or whatever editing program you may have.]]></content>
