Pantala: Motion Video Editor

Every editor knows the drill. The shot is static, so you add a little movement — position keyframe, zoom keyframe, adjust the easing, preview, undo, nudge, preview again. Twenty minutes later you have three seconds of camera motion that still feels mechanical. Keyframe animation is the slowest part of video editing. Pantala replaces all of that with the one tool you already know how to use: your hands. Pantala is a motion-controlled video editor: it turns your iPhone's movement into real pan, zoom, and rotation keyframes. Load a clip onto your iPhone, hold it like a camera, and move. Pan across the frame, push in to zoom, tilt for drama. Pantala tracks the motion in real time and records it as a finished camera move — with all the imperfection and intention of a real operator, because it is one. You. PERFORM, DON'T PROGRAM • Import any clip from Photos or Files • Hold the clutch to grab the frame — move to pan, push forward to zoom, tilt to rotate • Hit record and perform the move in one take • Review with a scrubber, keep the good take, redo the rest THEN SHIP IT ANYWHERE Export your camera move to the video editing tools you already use: • Save to Photos — a finished clip with the move baked in, ready to post • DaVinci Resolve — Fusion .setting with per-frame keyframes • Final Cut Pro — .fcpxml project • Premiere Pro — XML with Basic Motion keyframes Whether you're a creator posting straight from your phone or an editor who just doesn't want to hand-animate another slow push-in, the move drops right into your workflow. MADE FOR SOCIAL Reframe landscape footage to 9:16, 1:1, or 4:5 and perform the crop by hand — your pan across the wide shot becomes the vertical cut. STEADY WHEN YOU NEED IT Virtual tripod and rails modes lock zoom, pan, or vertical drift. Optional tilt lock keeps the horizon level. Haptics tell you when you hit the frame edge. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. The camera is used only for motion tracking — nothing it sees is displayed, recorded, or transmitted. No accounts, no analytics, no data collection. Ever.
