3

From the Browser, open the first clip you want to arrange in the background of your
composition, then edit it into the sequence using a superimpose edit.

4

Double-click the sequence clip you’ve just edited into the Timeline (not the
background clip) to open it into the Viewer, then click the Motion tab.

First, you’ll change the size of the clip so it’s smaller, then you’ll change the rotation so
the clip is angled.

5

Click the disclosure triangle next to the Basic Motion parameter, then drag the Scale
slider to 38 (or enter 38 in the Scale number field, then press Return).

A new track is created
above the current V1
video track, and your clip
is inserted into it.

As you adjust the Scale

slider to the left (lower),

the clip gets smaller in

the Canvas.
