Animating picture in picture effect

Basel-Shishani wrote on 6/15/2021, 11:23 AM

Greetings,

So I want to do a basic picture in picture; a top clip A running in full screen would reduce say to the bottom-left corner and continue playing, and the bottom clip B will be revealed and start playing. There's picture in picture effects available and I have NewBlue Elements installed too.

The problem is I would like the top video A to reduce in an animated style rather than with a sudden switch as it's done by the available effects.

Is there an easy way to achieve this effect?

Hi

This can be done with images and video starting with Keyframing of the Size and Position effect.

See the video clip for a quick method - you can add a fade out effect to the end of the image that moves, or move it entirely off screen in any direction. Adjust the length of the images and intervals between the keyframes to control the speed
