Picture in Picture for iMovile

I have an imovie with 2 files. One file is marked as the picture in picture so it appears as a picture in the main video. I want to reverse them. The current picture in picture should be the main video. How is that done?


Also when


Thanks

Put another clip or black background in front of the bottom clip and then slide the top clip to the left until the connection coupling moves off of the bottom clip. The top clip will slide along the timeline independently of the bottom clip.


I’m having trouble envisioning the effect you are trying to get. Can you describe in more detail exactly what steps you are doing and what result you are trying to get?

So, what I am envisioning is that you initially want the screen to be filled with your image talking, and then the document pops in with your image continuing to talk but inserted as a PiP into the document. Is that right?


If so, you could split the main clip of you talking into Segments 1 and 2 at the desired point in the narrative. Put Segment 1 in front of the document clip. Then insert Segment 2 as the PiP of you talking into the document clip. It would look like this:


Main clip of you talking, as shown in the Preview screen:



Then, as the playhead passes through your image, the document comes in with your image from Segment 2 of the split clip inserted as a PiP:
