Slideshow Reel Gallery - Individual Images Pop Up To Lightbox Video

Hi All,

I am creating a new personal site, and am wanting to keep it very clean and simplistic.

I create videos, and currently on my homepage I have a Slideshow Reel Gallery, displaying frame from my individual projects. I want users to be able to click on these images and a lightbox pop up of the video itself. 

Seemingly the only option is to turn this image into a link to another page. Is there anyway of being able to achieve this in square space? Upon research it is possible with the use of paid plugins, but surely there is a way to achieve this without having to do say?

Any pointers in the right direction are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Patrick
