I’m trying to add a snowfall effect in iMovie for iPad- when I activate picture in picture the black background covers up the underlying video - any ideas how to make it transparent?

Transparency isn't preserved? I am making an animation with eight frames that will be on top of a video loop. Each frame is transparent, and when I first drag it over the video in the timeline it is transparent and shows the video background behind it. However, when I turn off the Ken Burn's effect, it shows the frame against a black background and no longer preserves transparency. What can I do to fix this? I have attached images below to show my issue. First image shows the frame when I drop it into the video, with the desired effect (I can see the background video) First image shows the frame when I drop it into the video, with the desired effect (I can see the background video) Second image shows what happens when I turn off Ken Burns. I don't want this black background, I want the video behind it. Thank you if you are able to help!

Add a background in iMovie after the fact I just spent an hour cropping together different iPhone clips with titles and transitions on many of the slides... I realized afterwards the video looks terrible with the black bars on the sides. i have tried to add a background now but it shows up on the same bar and not on the background. I’ve watched a bunch of videos and they all say to add the background first... is there any way to add it after the fact?? Or conversely is it possible to add this project into My Media without losing all of the transitions and titles. If not I guess it’s just another hour of work, but I thought I’d reach out to some smart people first and see if I can save some time. Regards!
