How do you do the split screen effect, ie: 2 singers side by side?

We are using the Magix Movie Edit Pro 2013 Plus software

shoutgrace,

Put the two clips, one above the other, on different tracks and then select each in turn and use 'Effects' tab >> 'Movement effects' >> 'Size/Position'. Your Help menu has more detail under 'Size/Position.

Regards,

Carl

Or even simpler if you want to see all of each clip (with black at top and bottom) - with clips one above the other on the timeline / arranger:-

Go to "Effects tab > Design Elements > Picture in Picture" and drag the first PinP in the folder "2/1 Left" onto one clip and the next "2/1 Right onto the other clip. You can then modify if you wish by using the "size / postion" effect by dragging in the preview monitor or editing the dimensions in the boxes.

Tip > to drag something larger than or outside the preview screen > click the 100% Down Arrow at the bottom of the monitor and reduce the viewable area to 75 or 50% of the window.

there's a picture-in-picture effect in the effects tab.
