Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Effects

Making Picture in Picture effects in Movie Maker is a pretty popular item...
here's a new sample I'm working on. Both of these links are to the same 3:09
video - the 320x240 one is a 12 MB file and the 640x480 is 24 MB.

What I'm playing with is the integration of Photo Story 3 clips with MM2
movies, using PIP transitions of MM2 with a custom XML file... all work done
at 720x480 so each video clip added is rendered to a DV-AVI file to retain
quality.

I'm making my notes as I develop this new sample, and will probably do
another newsletter on the topic in a few weeks.
