# How to shrink content during ad playback (picture-in-picture)
<a name="overlay-shrink-pip"></a>

The following procedure describes how to reduce the size of your primary content (to 20 percent) while displaying an advertisement in full screen. In steps 3 through 7, you specify a full screen ad. In steps 8 through 12, you temporarily shrink your base input video.

## MediaConvert console

**To add a video overlay by using the MediaConvert console:**

1. Open the [Create job](https://console.aws.amazon.com/mediaconvert/home#/jobs/create) page in the MediaConvert console.

1. Specify an input video. For more information, see *Step 1: Input files* in [ Configuring jobs](setting-up-a-job.md#specify-input-settings).

1. In the settings for your input, next to **Video overlays**, choose **Add overlay**. 

1. Specify an Input file URL for your ad file.

1. Specify a **Start timecode**.

1. Specify an **End timecode**.

1. Optionally add any **Input clips** for your video overlay.

1. Add a separate overlay by choosing **Add overlay**. This overlay provides the animated resizing transitions for your base input video.

1. Choose **Add transition**. 

1. In the **Transition**, specify the following: **Height**: 20, **Width**: 20, **X position**: 75, **Y position**: 75, specify a **Start timecode**, and specify an **End timecode**.

1. Choose **Add transition**.

1. In the **Transition**, specify the following: **Height**: 100, **Width**: 100, **X position**: 0, **Y position**: 0, specify a **Start timecode** some time after the previous transition, and specify an **End timecode**.

## API, SDK, or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI)

To specify a video overlay using the API, SDK, or AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), include `VideoOverlays` in your job settings JSON.

The following is an excerpt of a job settings JSON that specifies a full screen ad and temporarily reduces the size of your base input video:
