• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

Help with an effect?

I am using iMovie 4.01 to put a short video together. Is there a way I can take 4 photos and shrink them down so they appear in the 4 corners of the screen (like the Brady Bunch but with with only 4)?

I want to use stills, but I want to change them all at different times. So the upper left picture changes, but the other three stay the same. And just do that in rapid succession. Is there a way to overlap and resize photos in iMovie itself to achieve the effect?

If I can't do it with 4.01 is it an option with any of the later versions?

Thanks!
John

Its only an option in Final Cut since you need layers to be able to achieve the effect and iMovie is a single layer NLE.
