Working with Overlay clips
Adding multiple Overlay Tracks gives you more creative possibilities for your
movie. You can superimpose clips over a background video with portions of the
overlay being transparent or add objects and frames to your video. Achieving
different effects for your projects can be easy when you know how to use Overlay
clips and tracks.
Trimming Overlay clips
You can trim a clip in the Overlay Track like the way you trim a clip in the Video
Track. To cut clips in the Video and Overlay Tracks all at once, select
Project
as
the Play mode and then drag the slider to the part you want to cut. Click
.
Repositioning the current Overlay clip
Click to select the Overlay clip in the Timeline. After clicking
the Attribute tab, drag the Overlay clip to the desired area
on the Preview Window. It is recommended that you keep
the Overlay clip within the title safe area.
You can also click
Options
in the Attribute tab to open a
menu where you can automatically place the Overlay clip in
a preset position on the video. Here, you can also resize the
Overlay clip to keep the aspect ratio, revert it to the default size, use the original
size of the Overlay clip, or resize it to occupy the entire screen.
Resizing an Overlay clip
After clicking the Attribute tab, drag a handle on the Overlay clip on the Preview
Window to resize it. If you drag a yellow corner handle, it will keep the aspect ratio
when you resize the clip.
