Picture in Picture
Canva’s video editor is useful, but it has its quirks. For example, you can have up to 50 audio tracks, but only one video track. I’m used to layering video tracks in other apps to show things like B-roll or videos over my shoulder, so this is a bit limiting.
You can still layer videos in Canva, but instead of each video having its own track, you add the additional videos directly onto the same track as the base video. You can resize and move the added videos, but here’s the catch: Canva loops those extra videos to match the length of the base video.
To control when picture-in-picture videos appear or disappear, you can tweak the timing. Right-click the added video and select Show timing. This temporarily puts the video on its own track, allowing you to drag the handles to adjust when the added video appears and disappears over the base video.
