‘Locking’ a video within my video
Hello,
First of all, I’m new here and I just started using Sony Vegas Pro. My English isn’t very good so I can’t really explain what I want, so I just rendered this video to make clear what my problem is.

I tried to zoom in with the Pan/Crop tool, but then, the video file that’s in my video starts to move along and I just want to keep it in the position that it’s originally in. So that video shouldn’t move, but I don’t know how to ‘lock’ that video and I don’t know if that’s even possible? If yes, I’d like to know how 🙂
Thanks for your time!

You can add a new track above the first two which will become the Parent track by making your existing tracks Compositing Children of the new track. Then use Parent Motion on the new track for your movement instead of Pan/Crop and both child tracks will move together.

Just what I needed, thank you so much!

You’re welcome. I also have some tutorials on my web site that involve Parent Motion but they were more detailed than you needed. Here are some to look at just in case you want to learn more:
Using 3D Parent Motion to make a two videos move in unison in 3D space
Using Parent Motion to make a moving film strip
Enjoy,
