Scaling many images the same amount AFTER Motion's scaling

[OsakaWebbie]

I have many old photos I'm trying to make into a slideshow with an appearance similar to this tutorial. The photos are many different aspect ratios and resolutions, so after Default Media Scaling="Set to Frame Size" did its thing, the scaling value in the Motion effect is different for each one. To do the white frame trick in the tutorial, I have duplicated all the photos on Track 2 onto Track 3, and now I want to scale all the photos on Track 3 by 85% and all on Track 2 by 90%. I can do that by nesting everything on each of the tracks and reducing the scaling on each of the two resulting sequences, but later I will want to add rotation to each photo while keeping the frame and photo together - for that, I need to nest vertically (the Track 2 and Track 3 copies of a single photo), not horizontally. Obviously I can't nest both ways. I expected there to be a separate effect I could add that would do additional scaling, but there doesn't seem to be one. Any ideas?

What's the reason for making one nest containing all of the photos and frames?  You'd have the control you want if you made a nest of each photo with its corresponding white frame, then rotated that nest.

What you're describing is exactly what I plan to do, but I needed a way to scale all the photos to 85% and scale all the frames to 90% without using the scaling part of the Motion effect, because it's already at some number other than 100% for each photo. Richard Knight's suggestion of the Transform effect does what I need.

There is a 'distort/transform' effect that will give you additional scaling.

Sweet - that works beautifully!
