Making split screen videos in Premiere?

[googlioboy]

Okay, here's the deal. I've been hired to make this year's video (3 hours) for a prestigous dance studio. I wanted to try a split screen effect on a couple of the tap numbers. I want to have 3 individual screens on the screen at all times during the number--one intercutting between audience reaction shots and a long shot, one medium shot, and one medium closeup alterating between the dancer and her tap shoes. Is this possible within Premiere? I thought of capturing the raw footage of the sequence (I'm going to use 3 cameras) and editing the shots for the 3 screens together and making .avi files for each screen at less than 720x480. But the problem is making them appear on the screen at the same time, instead of having them run one after the other. Can anyone help?

One solution is to use the motion section in premiere. Else you can use the program Adobe after effects, i have try make splitt screen there ones and it worked great. But if you just have premiere try to use the motion section and the transprant effect, it can be a bit complicated to get 3 screen in the same picture. If you don't find out how to do it just msg me and I'll try to explain better how I'm thinking.
