Premiere help

Hi, I wanted to know how to combine 2 clips and show them at the same time. I have 2 different camera angles and I want to be able to see them both at the same time like a split screen. Or how do you change the transperancy so I can just overlap them and you can see them both 50/50?
Thanks.

I don't recommend doing it with transparency but you can play with it - put one clip on the video 1 track and the other on video 2. For the video 2 track you have a transparency slider where you can adjust it (you need to expand the track to see it - click the triangle next to the track name).

For a simple split screen where you show both clips at the same time you can use the motion effect and move one clip to the left and one to the right. You'll need to zoom 50% to show the full image of each clip and then you'll end up with a lot of white space at the top and bottom of the screen since they will be shrunk horizontally as well as vertically.

Here's a tutorial for doing a 4 way split screen which should teach you everything you need to know ---> http://www.wrigleyvideo.com/videotutorial/tutdes_quadpip.htm

snowkid45, off of what BillJ said, if you are going the motion 50% effect then change the background to black and IMO it will look a lot better. just like the clips are popping up in mid air effect instead of on a blank screen.
