Overlay

The Overlay Step provides an additional track where you can place videos and images to enhance introductions and credits. An alpha-channel is automatically applied to clips placed in this track for transparency. By using an animation style such as fade-in and fade-out, you can interweave two clips, one in the Storyboard Track and another in the Overlay Track, in one timeline. You can even have three separate clips playing simultaneously by adding a clip in the Title Track.

1.Select Video/Image in the Folder list or click Load video / Load image to browse and select a file.

2.Drag and drop Library to the Timeline.

3.Click Motion, and apply a motion style to create a blending effect between the selected clip and the clip simultaneously running in the Storyboard Track.
