Using Moving paths
Moving paths are invisible lines that an overlay clip can follow during an
animation. In the simplest case, a clip can move from a starting keyframe
position to an ending one. More complex Moving paths can rotate and zoom
clips in three dimensions.
To create a Picture-in-Picture:
1.
Place a clip for the background on the Va track, and the clip to appear
as the foreground directly over it in an overlay track (V1).
2.
From the Production Library, drag-and-drop the 2D Basic Moving Path
thumbnail onto the clip in the overlay track. The 2D Basic Moving Path
dialog box opens.
3.
Click the Keep aspect ratio option and enter a new width value of
one-third the size of the original in the Width spin box for both the
start and end keyframes.
4.
Drag the Start control point to the location where you want the
overlay video to appear.
5.
Click on the End control point. Manually enter the X and Y positions to
match the Start control point. Since the keyframe settings are the same,
there is no animation interpolated between them.
6.
Click OK to close the dialog box and apply the path.
