Movie Software Suggestion/Recommendation
-
I used one of their favorites as a background and it worked, however when I started adding more items or changing the timeline of some items I had already included, I could no increase the background to match the other changes so it does not now appear behind all items. So far, I have not been able to find a solution.
Is there a support site or forum you would recommend?
BTW: from an earlier post, are you from Germany? I was stationed there in the US Army from late 1966 to late 1968.

...so I can understand better—you could send me a screenshot similar to mine, even if it doesn't work exactly as you want it to yet. Maybe also a mock-up screenshot of how it should look later in the video.
If you want to add images (JPGs or similar), they’ll be added by default in full-screen mode, so to speak, and would thus cover your background, which obviously needs to remain visible (?). So you’ll need to scale down your image sequence, similar to the “Cute Robot” in my screenshot...
But before I offer any further blabla
I’ll better wait for your screenshots.Yes, that’s right—I live in the Frankfurt area
Where were you stationed back then? -

️hi!
Hoping this kind of slideshow is what you had in mind.
Within CapCut I placed two photos one after the other on one track (over(or is it above?) my green background-track). This upper photo-track starts with a “pause” where only the background remains visible. Then comes the first photo, which is scaled and positioned randomly. As soon as it ends, there is another short pause. Now image #2 follows. Here, I’ve even added a fade-in and fade-out effect. Image #2 is also scaled and placed somewhat randomly...
(I’m including the YouTube link “How To Fade In and Fade Out” here)

By the way: when you add your text track, the individual text elements are edited almost exactly the same way as the other video content you've placed.
As I mentioned earlier, I avoid overly flashy effects—the kind that have always annoyed me, even in PowerPoint
Of course, the photos can also fill the entire screen. If you “lock” this state with a keyframe, then enlarge the photo to x times its original size, and set another keyframe a few seconds later, the finished video will give the impression that you're zooming deep into the image....

Well, I am making some progress. Here is a link to a video I just created and posted on YouTube. BSW Test 1
Yes, I still have a long way to go but at least this is a start. My plan is to expand this video a good bit. I have several more "slide" I want to add but it will take some time. The problem I had with the background seems to be solved (at least so far). I know I also need to add some keyframes and some other features. Let me know what you think of where I currently am.
I do not know where all of those other videos come from and I have not figured out how to all the viewer to replay the video I added.

Too bad—your video is private, so I can't view it. But I'm glad to hear you're making progress. -

Thanks for the verification @rich-o-brien.
I will have to move on with trying to learn more about learning CapCut. It seems like a pretty strong and versatile tool.
