    Hi Doumbe,

    This is straightforward. Drag your primary video over the new comp icon at the bottom of the project panel to make a new comp the right length and size. Then drag the secondary video into the new comp (into the timeline panel). make sure it is the top layer because you want this layer to sit ‘on top’ of the primary layer. Hit S to reveal the scale property for the secondary layer. Change the values until the layer is the right size. Then move the layer until it’s in the place you want.

    Hope this helps.
