message: I hope the video example I made is interesting enough. I hope no one minds. --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 20:06, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the video, but it does not seem to illustrate the Ken Burns effect. It is just a montage of photos with no panning or zooming involved. It would be nice if you or someone else could upload a video that better illustrates what the article is about.88.74.214.230 (talk) 21:06, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

message: The technique was also in children's programs. I remember watching "moving" stories read from books on the Captain Kangaroo show in the 1960s. — Loadmaster (talk) 17:09, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Early uses of the effect 

message: I removed these examples from a section called "origins." They require citation and contextualization.
*The British Broadcasting Corporation's documentary series The Great War, first shown in 1964, used both extensively.
*Zooming and panning of still images were used in the 1982 title sequence of the sitcom Cheers.

replies: text: Nicer still, from a knowledge store and propagation for the ages perspective, would be an exposition of the mathematics that go into a software implementation.  Zooming in a fixed number of pixels per frame doesn't work; it "accellerates" exponentially as you zoom in, e.g.  A logarithmic algorithm is needed.  Panning horizontally without zooming, however, requires a linear progression.  The rub for me (I've made my own implementations of this) comes when panning horizontally while simultaneously zooming in or out by some amount.  My math skills appear to be a bit too rusty to easily derive what I suspect should be a compact and neat formula, but I'm working at it. --Kbh3rdtalk 15:16, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

message: This article has a very close relationship to Rostrum camera. There's a argument for merging these two articles, although perhaps a knowledgable editor might start by adding cross-references between these two articles instead? There also appears to be some British (rostrum) vs. American (Burns) cultural / film industry separation. Andrew Oakley (talk) 13:26, 22 August 2018 (UTC)
