Track matte question
Hi!
I am trying to create this show which has a videoscreen on the right.
checkout this example of what im trying to achieve:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nsqf2YuwrJAIn this screen i need to edit still pictures taken out of photoshop.
This would be simple (edit the pictures in a different sequence and combine the two, after which i scale the sequence with the edited pictures to the size of the screen) if it wasnt for my screen with rounded edges.
I know i could export the sequence in a quicktime and than apply a track matte but this would greatly disrupt the workflow as i have to make alot of changes afterwards.I have tried to put a track matte on the sequence but this doesnt work.
Any help is GREATLY appreciated.
Best regards!
ps. im using CS4

Nesting the sequence into the presenters sequence will remove the need to export your edit and allows you to make edits on the fly.
Basically you have a sequence for the PIP (Picture In Picture) and that seq is added to the final seq (holding the edit of the presenter), then you can open the PIP seq and make changes when you need to.
Another option could be to apply the track matte to the presenter clip creating a hole for the PIP behind with a border over the top of the PIP hole.
