Need help with editing a movie. This time, I got some footage that I want to use in the credits. The thing is, I dont want the footage to cover the whole screen. I just want it to be resized into a little box and have the background all black with the credits scrolling up the side. Any know if something like this is possible? Pic A is what I have, Pic B is what I want:

Resize it in photoshop, irfanview, or paint, and make it a background image, overlaying the credits on it.

Yea, Movie Maker blows.

Quick Solution? Get Adobe Premiere.

It's gonna be a bitch to di that with WMM and VirtualDub...

Sony Vegas can do that easily, WMM? Hmm not sure, havent used that piece of kit for years, and hope I never will have to.

I do Final Cut, but that's OS X only. For PC I'd try Premier.

Yea, like I said, you could do that in Premiere in 30 seconds.
