Overlays

The Overlays category in the Library contains a variety of assets that can be used over top of a clip or in any creative way you like. For example, you can apply an animated overlay to apply lighting, brush stroke, or animated drawing effects over your main clips. You can also add basic shapes or pre-made graphics and keyframe their motion or other properties.

To add an animated overlay or other overlay graphic to a project

1 From the Edit tab, click the Navigation bar for the Library panel, and choose Overlays

2 Navigate to the category you want, and in the library, click thumbnail for the overlay that you want to select.

You can preview the overlay in the Player panel.

3 Drag the overlay to a track above the target clips.

You can edit the overlay as you would edit any other clip.
