Picture in picture shapes

Help/How To
1

Hello.

For picture-in-picture video, is there the ability to make complex shapes rather than just a square or rectangle.

I’m trying to emulate an old 4:3 TV screen with curved edges.

Thanks.

Try the Mask Filter

You could get a transparent PNG image of an old TV, cut out the screen and then place a video behind it so it looks like it’s actually being displayed on the TV itself. Is that what you mean?

The video would go on track 1 and you’d overlay the image on track 2 and adjust the sizes of each accordingly using the position/size filter.

Thanks Steve. I didn’t know about the Mask Filter. It gives me a work around solution, not quite what I was after.
