I'm looking to put "moving graphics" in iMovie. See link below from 1:01:40 to 1:01:50. You'll see graphics/numbers that seem to move with the land as it disappears into the foreground. Not sure if anyone is familiar with doing this in iMovie?

I wasn't able to find the specific graphics that you referred to. When I clicked on your link I got a display of several videos pertaining to the Master's golf tournament. I clicked on three of them but couldn't find what you referenced.
In general, you can use the Picture in Picture feature to overlay text or a graphic onto a video and then use the keyframe feature to animate it. This help link explains how to use Picture in Picture and the keyframe animation feature:

So, you want to hold the graphic back as the video moves forward, leaving the graphic behind. Correct?
If so, you can do that with the keyframe animation feature. You insert your graphic PiP. A little keyframe insertion box will appear in the upper left of the preview screen.
With your movie stopped, click on the center diamond to set your first keyframe point. Then use the arrows in the lower right hand corner of your keyboard to advance the movie a few frames. Move your graphic downward a little. Then stop and click on the right arrow in the control box to set the next keyframe point. Repeat the process as you move your video forward a little at a time.

Thank you for the response Rich. Sorry about the faulty link. The red arrow in the image below is pointing at the graphic I'm referring to. Those numbers and light green graphic will gradually disappear as the camera continues moving forward. Essentially, the illusion is as if the graphic is actually on the golf course.
The best I've been able to do is insert a graphic that will remain in the same position of the screen even though my video is moving.
Wonderful! Thank you so much!
You are welcome. Glad it worked for you. The animated keyframe feature is pretty cool.
