14 Using the same sequence In and Out points that you’ve been using, set the destination
track of your sequence to V3, then edit in the foreground clip using a superimpose edit.
15 Open this new clip in the Viewer, then click the Motion tab.
16 Click the Basic Motion disclosure triangle to reveal the Basic Motion parameters, then
adjust the Scale slider to 66, so that this clip is 66 percent of its original size.
Now you need to move this clip down so it doesn’t obscure the clips in the background
as much. To make sure important elements in your sequence are not cut off at the
edges when you’re layering these clips, you should show the Title Safe indicators. The
Title Safe indicators show the title safe and action safe boundaries, so you can position
your composited clips and titles accordingly.
The fourth clip is now
in your sequence.
Set the Scale slider to 66.
The foreground clip
is now 66 percent of
its original size.
