Yes, he used Gifs files for the thumbnails and I can see the quality is ok, do you want to make a preview on your videos with lightbox studio enabled?
fyi, gallery block with videos from Vimeo can only play one video at a time, so you may not be able to create a autoplay loop videos grid like the reference

@Beyondspace I did explore that option, however, it's not the most device-responsive. I'm looking to do this with a gallery so that both the photos and videos can be in a neat and responsive grid. I did see https://www.emiledits.com who also uses the Lightbox plug-in. However, he created the gallery grid on his page using Gifs right? I read that on your case study here: https://www.beyondspace.studio/case-studies/maximizing-video-portfolio-engagement-case-study-of-emil-schnstrm?mnc-sel=div%3A1>main%3A3>article%3A1>section%3A1>div%3A2>div%3A1>div%3A1>article%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A2>div%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A1>div%3A1>figure%3A1>figcaption%3A2>div%3A1>p%3A1

I'm looking to use video embeds from Vimeo for the grid, I just wanted to know if you think the video Lightbox plug-in would be the right fit for this. Or if anyone else has any ideas for how we can achieve this.

Has anyone found a way to do this? I've been looking to create a portfolio with both photos and videos that autoplay and loop. I know Circle Members have access to upload photos and videos in a gallery block but there isn't any cropping or autoplay controls with that. And I'm hoping to create something like this: https://www.macshoop.com 
 
I didn't see any sure examples of this effect with the Lightbox plug-in either (the closest they had was with gifs, which I would like to avoid for speed). I'm also not looking to lightbox these items at all, just a scrollable gallery that's responsive. Does anyone think the Lightbox plug-in would be the best fit for this effect? @Beyondspace

I wish Squarespace had more video options in a gallery-type layout. We work in photos and videos and would like a way to show them both off together side by side. Does anyone have any ideas on how to approach this?

Ok, it seems the solution was as simple as stretching out the code block past the items on the left so once it loads out of editing mode it won't need to stretch to fill the space it needs. I guess because the code was trying to stretch to fit before it just took everything along with it.
