Let’s add Builds (animation) to elements on this slide. Begin by selecting the Title Textbox. Click Build on the top bar. For the Build In effect, choose ‘Blur’. Set the Build Order to 1, and configure the Start to ‘After Previous’. Adjust the Duration to 1 second, with ‘0’ Delay, and choose ‘Linear’ for Easing.
Next, select the portrait Video 1, hold Command (Control for Windows), and select its respective title and sub-title. Then, apply the Build In effect: ‘Fade’. Set the Build Order to 2, and configure the Start to ‘After Previous’. Keep the Duration at 1 sec, with 0 sec Delay, and choose ‘Linear’ for Easing.
Repeat this process for the next two sets of videos and their respective titles, giving them build orders 3 and 4.

Design Tips & Tricks 🔥

For the best result, use videos of equal duration, where your subjects are not moving too fast. Slow-motion videos work well here.
Make sure the last frame of the video is an appropriate still image of your subject.
