How to do this effect?????

Does anyone know how to do the effect that starts in the video below? It starts at 2:12 of the video where she is in a bunch of windows that constantly scroll down. I recently purchased the Tokyo Split Animator and can get my windows to scroll from top down to the bottom but it does not continuously scroll. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm not familiar with Tokyo Split Animator, but I can't see that you need anything other than the built-in tools in FCPX for this. You'd need a layer per clip; crop vertically for the framing you want, then position off the top of the viewable frame. Set a keyframe, scrub forward say ten seconds, set another keyframe and reposition the layer below the viewable window. FCPX will animate the frame falling.

Now repeat for each clip, each on a separate layer and offset so they 'chase' each other down the screen.

Getting them to move at the same speed will require some care. Another way of doing this might be to composite your clips in Motion into one tall group, then either keyframe their move as before or apply a 'Throw' behaviour.
