# How to replicate final crop parameters in after Ken Burns effect

(Asked by: username_0 on 2016-08-11)

I'm using a Ken Burns effect to zoom in on a section of running video. After the zoom completes I want the next section of video to continue with the same crop dimensions. How do I find out the exact dimensions that the Ken Burns effect finishes with?
