Modifying Media in the PiP
Designer
When you add a video clip, image, or PiP object to a video track you can apply PiP
effects to it in the PiP Designer*. PiP (picture-in-picture) effects include making
your media transparent, applying borders, shadows, chroma key (green screen),
motion, and more.
To open the PiP Designer, select a video clip, image, or PiP object on the timeline
and then click the Modify button.
