Compositing

When you want to place one image or video over another, blend clips together, or build effects such as picture-in-picture, compositing gives you the control you need. In Filmora, you can stack media on different tracks and adjust how the layers appear together to create a single combined result.

How to Create a Composite Video in Filmora

To create a composite in Filmora, follow these steps to add your media to separate tracks, arrange the layers, and adjust their size, position, and blending settings:

Step 1. Create a New Filmora Project

Press Create Project to start importing your video and image into Filmora.

Select the Create Project option

Step 2. Add Video Across the Timeline

Drag your base video to Track 1 on the timeline and place your overlay image or second video on Track 2 directly above it.

Import media across Filmora properly

Step 3. Go to the Compositing Menu

Double-click the video or image and go to the Video/Image tab. Expand the Compositing menu and select the blending mode. This depends on how you want the top layer to interact with the base video.

Choose the compositing settings

Step 4. Set the Keyframe

Click the diamond icon next to the Compositing tab to set a keyframe for all the parameters, or the diamond next to Opacity to adjust the single parameter. Play back the timeline to review the composite effect. Click Export to save your final project.
