Tile Animation controls let you create automatic Intro and/or Outro animations.
Keep in mind that, when using multiple instances of the Video Collage effect on superimposed clips in the Timeline, once you’ve defined your overall layout and used Paste Attributes to copy a particular instance of this effect with your layout to the rest of the clips, you need only keyframe each instance
TIP: If you change the duration of clips in a stack that are creating a Video Collage effect, you can use the Synchronize Keyframing controls in Globals mode to offset all keyframes applied to that instance of the Video Collage effect by the same amount. You could do the same thing by opening the keyframe track or Curve Editor for all Video Collage parameters in the Timeline and offsetting them that way, but this provides a quick shortcut.

of each tile within the clip it’s applied to. Furthermore, since Intro and Outro animations are applied to the entire duration of the clip, you can easily offset each Intro and Outro animation by offsetting the clips in the Timeline.
Video Collage Controls
Here’s a detailed explanation of all the parameters found in the Video Collage effect.
— Workflow: Defines what the output of Video Collage is, depending on how you want to use it.
— Create Background: Outputs a frame with holes, behind which you can position individual layers of video to show through.
— Create Tile: Outputs a single tile, transformed and styled to be one element of a multi-tile layout
— Preview Layout: Turning on Preview Layout lets you see a graphical preview of the entire layout, and how each tile fits together. In Create Tile mode, this lets you configure how you want the layout to look before you copy the clip and use paste attributes to apply this effect to the rest of the video layers you want to arrange into a split-screen.
— Globals/Tile buttons: Choose between the Globals controls, which expose controls that let you adjust the overall layout, and the Tiles controls, which let you choose the currently active tile and style it.
