t
They let you reuse sequences, as well as use the same sequence but give it 
a different look each time.
t
They organize your work in the same way you might create subfolders in the 
Project panel or in Windows Explorer. This avoids confusion and shortens 
editing time.
t
They allow you to apply more than one transition between clips.
t
They make it possible to build multiple picture-in-picture effects.
In this exercise, you will learn to create the classic newspaper spinning onto the 
screen—except you will use a nested sequence to add a motion video as a “picture” 
on this spinning newspaper. Using nested sequences will make it very easy.
1
Open Lesson 16-3.prproj.
2
Select the completed sequence, and play it to see the effect you will create.
The spinning newspaper is the last set of clips in the sequence.
3
Open the nested practice sequence. Initially, it is empty.

4
Drag the Medieval_Hero_02 clip to the Video 1 track of the nested practice 
sequence. Press backslash (\) to zoom in the Timeline.
5
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the clip, and choose Scale to 
Frame Size to scale the clip to match the sequence resolution.
6
Drag newspaper.psd to the Video 2 track, directly above the Medieval_Hero_02 
clip. Adjust the length of the newspaper clip to match the movie clip.
The newspaper clip has a square transparent area where the movie clip 
underneath shows through.
7
Select the Medieval_Hero_02 clip in Video 1, and using the Scale and Position 
parameters of the Motion effect, adjust the video to fit in the window of the 
newspaper. Set Scale to 59 and Position to 360, 322, which should work well.
8
Delete the audio of the Medieval_Hero_02 clip by Alt-clicking (Windows) or 
Option-clicking (Mac OS) the audio track and pressing Delete.
That’s all you need to do with the nested sequence. You’ll animate the newspaper 
and video together by animating the sequence, not the individual clips.
