Hey guys, Can anyone tell me how to do video in video overlays and which software would be the best to use, as I want to do reaction cams on my gameplay videos now.
But at the moment i'm trying to do it in After Effects but when I render the video it splits it into seperate videos would it be better if I used Adobe Premier Pro and how do I go about it.
Feedback would be appreciated people.
 
Use Premiere. Only use after effects to add in actual effects :P Place your game play video in video track one. Then your webcam in track 2. Click on the clip in track 2 and then go on the effects tab above the timeline. Click motion (I think that's what its called) And decrease the size from there. You can also I think just shrink it by clicking on the preview window. Then move it around and your done. Just make sure you have the videos playing at the same time :) If your really confused just say what your stuck on and i'l be happy to help :)
 
You need to create a composition and put your game play videos on the bottom layer then the reaction cam at the top layer. Then make sure the composition timeline is selected and render it out!
