    You do that using multiple layers and the transform function to scale and crop the video. You can position and animate the layers as you like. It’s fairly easy to do, but there is no plugin that will do it for you automatically. Not sure you want to make your product that messy. All those moving boxes with lower thirds can get pretty messy.

    All the best,

    Tom
