In 2007, the five-second video "Dramatic Chipmunk" with a surprised chipmunk gained immense popularity among Internet users and went viral. Since then, the so-called dramatic zoom has become an integral part of popular culture.

Camera zooms in order to emphasize the drama of the moment could always be done manually using the zoom in a smartphone. In 2017, Instagram also got this opportunity. The option allows you to do a dramatic hitting automatically, as in the legendary video "Dramatic Chipmunk".
How to make a "dramatic" face enlargement on Instagram
1. Open the camera in the Instagram app.
2. Select the SUPERZOOM tool, then select which camera to use (front or rear) and effect and click on the button in the center.

3. If you press once, the superzoom duration is 3 seconds.

To extend it, press and hold the button. For greater impact, superzoom is accompanied by music and animation effects.

Short videos are more popular in Stories on the Instagram app. Boomerang is especially in demand. Loop videos add movement to what is essentially a simple photograph. Superzoom is very similar to Boomerang. Try the function on yourself, your friends, pets or even inanimate objects, and you will have a lot of fun. You can share videos with added effects in Stories or send them to friends in disappearing messages.
