I have been pleased with the improvements and features in iMovie 09. Here is an excellent tutorial from MacMost on how to do “Picture-In-Picture” with this application…

/ June 2, 2009I've used this and it works great. iMovie 09 is a really cool app to use. Way better than '08 and different from HD. Takes a bit to get used to but then you just fly thru it!

I would like to make a donation but couldn’t find a donate button. I’ll check this post again to see if I have just missed it. Thanks again!

/ April 4, 2011This was really helpful but I am looking for something a little more specific. Is there anyway that you can change the shape of your picture overlay? I don't want it my video to be a square/rectangle on top of my main video but a shape of my creation. Is this possible?

/ April 4, 2011That is an excellent question! I will have to look around and see what I can find.
Help!
/ May 22, 2011When a picture on picture is about to come up on my video, instead of it showing, it makes my video pause- the video resumes once the 4 seconds I had set for the picture to appear is up. For some reason, this only happens when i’m playing through my video, if i stop the video and start from a point closer to is, it works fine. Very frustrating! Please help!

/ June 8, 2011This was very helpful! However, now I'm having a hard time having my picture-in-picture play over the transitions that I have set between two video shots. When I overlay the picture-in-picture to appear in the bottom right corner of every video shot, my transitions between the video shots are no longer effective. Is there a way to change this?
