Creating A PIP Effect
PIP, also known as Picture in Picture, is an effect often used to place some smaller videos on a background clip, showing two or more video clips on the same screen.
It is extremely useful to create online tutorials, product demonstrations or game videos, etc., when you need to narrate the action happening in the main clip.
Create A PIP Effect Video
- Import both the background video and the picture-in-picture video to the media library
- Drag and drop the background video to video track 1 in the timeline.
- Drag and drop the PIP video above the background video in the timeline.

- Select the PIP video in the timeline and drag its handles in the Preview window to quickly adjust its position and size.

● Click the PIP video in the timeline to enter the Video edit panel, go to the Basic tab.
● Scroll down to the Compositing field and select a Blend Mode (i.e., multiply, darken, screen, or color burn).
● You can fine-tune the opacity until you have the look you want in the preview window.

Change PIP Video Shape with Mask
● Switch to the Mask tab in the Video edit panel.
● Please select one of the mask presets and place it in the PIP video in the timeline.
