Creating PiP Effects
travel from the first Motion keyframe to the last Motion keyframe.
Distance Between Keyframes
The distance between each keyframe also contributes to the speed of the PiP media
motion. The further the distance between each keyframe, the quicker the PiP media
needs to move to get to the next keyframe.
Keyframe Timeline
The keyframe timeline is located below the preview window. Each keyframe in the
motion path has a corresponding marker on the keyframe timeline.
If the PiP media clip on the timeline has a duration of 10 seconds, the keyframe
timeline is 10 seconds long. To increase the speed of a PiP media's motion, drag a
keyframe marker closer to previous keyframe marker.
Saving a Custom PiP Motion Path
Once you finish modifying your PiP motion path you can save it for future use. To
save a motion path, click on to save it as a custom path. It is then available in
motion path list the next time you want to use it.
