15 Open this new clip in the Viewer, then select the Motion tab.
16 Open the Basic Motion parameter and adjust the Scale slider to 66, so that this clip is
66% 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 boundaries. The
Title Safe indicators show the boundaries for title safe and action safe, so you can
position your composited clips and titles accordingly.
The fourth clip is now
in your sequence.
Set the Scale to 66.
The foreground clip
is now 66% of its
original size.
