Default Two Videos at one time

So I do a lot of concert footage and have been editing in Premiere Pro. I like how we can have two cameras play at one time. I've scaled the camera views down and need to know if there's any way of changing the square/rectangle shape that I get. Can I blend one video with the other so that it looks more normal? I hope that makes sense.

You want both clips playing side by side but so each one takes up half the screen right?

Place two clips on two layers and simply clip or crop each layer to be half screen width, the position it on the left or right.

if that's not what you're after then canyou try to explain more?

I actually have that part down. I'm wondering if I when I scale down one of the videos to play, say in the upper right hand corner of the other video, how would I go I make it look more natural instead of the uniform square look. Does that make any more sense? I tried to use the edge feather effect, but that doesn't seem to help much. THANKS for all your help!
