Problem cropping a video
I’m having a few problems with a video I’m trying to edit. There is a scene where there are two people standing on a staircase and I need to edit one of the people out. I’ve tried using the pan/crop tool to do this but there are the following problems:
1) It seems to apply the effect to the whole video – rather than just the ten seconds I need it. Therefore, the whole video looks cropped, which is strange.
2) It always zooms in to the person of focus quite fast. I don’t want it to zoom in at all, just crop the other person.
3) Cropping makes the person of focus seem a little too close – I still wanted some distance so that my audience is aware of the staircase. Is this possible or is the massive close-up the only option I’ve got when cropping?
4) Once I’ve cropped there is a very fine black line at the top of the video. It’s just about noticeable and I’d rather not have it – I want my video to have a more symmetrical look. Any ideas?
If anyone can help with these issues it would be hugely appreciated 🙂

Realistically, if you crrop an image (remove a section) you will either have a black area where it was removed or you zoom in to have the remaining image fill the screen.
