You know what man….

sigh I’m such a moron I had extreme tunnel vision and failed to put track motion and pan/crop TOGETHER, wow, just wow buddy.

I kept thinking “wow track motion can only alter where my scene is but can’t isolate a part”, and “wow pan/crop can only isolate a part but not where it is”…

unreal, thank you very much for your patience — I for one, would have flamed someone like me if this were photoshop 🙁

I’d once again like to reiterate that I’m new and as such might be a complete moron, I looked through those tutorials and don’t think it gave me much use, although it did teach me some things — it did not teach me how to do my desired effect!

I have photoshopped an image [ lol ], trying to show the effect I want. Of course it is not literally THE effect in placement, but in principle this is what I would like to do — cut something from one area and place it in another area!!

Does this make sense? Sorry if you gave me the answer and it is infact in one of those tutorials, although I did not see it, and sorry for bothering you =[

I have been using pan/crop quite a lot throughout my learning process and trying my damndest to figure out how to slice up individual parts of my video and have them play in other areas but cant seem to figure it out. I can isolate different sections but can’t actually remove them from the clip they are a part of and move them around. Also trying to make them scale is an enormous problem.

I will look up tutorials now on the pan crop function and track motion, can you explain how I use new blue video essentials?

I’m sorry if I’m too newb =[

Edit: Arrrrgh I can’t find a tutorial explaining it and I’m trying to use track motion but can’t find a tutorial that shows how to slice it up like I want, just to manipulate the scene as a whole.
