Does anyone know a 2D animation program that lets you change the direction of the camera, so it zooms out from a section from the backround or goes to a different seection of the backround, like you see in Disney´s 2D animation films? Is there also a way to loop the same animations?

I'm pretty sure you can do that sort of thing with Adobe Animate, though I haven't used the program much myself. Do you just mean zooming from the foreground/background or panning?

I can't say I've played around it much and this is actually a very complicated program to use but have you considered OpenToonz?

Zooming from backround to foreground. I tried to do this in Photoshop and Windows Live Movie Maker, but it didn´t quite work for me.

Speaking of backrounds, is there a way to automatically remove backrounds from a frame, so only what is left are the characters in the foreground.

You can't do that in Adobe Animate unfortunately.
