How can I put bars down the sides of a 4:3 clip in a 16:9 project, similiar to the way TV news services do with the bars as "out of focus" clips of the actual footage? I hope that makes sense.

Thanks IanB

Add the same video on track 1 and track 2, track 1 of the video, espandir to fill the screen and apply the blur effect.
See the picture shows in detail
