How to make gif collages?

[Mary Ann]

I notice how certain instagram accounts have these cool video collages with gifs. I've always wondered how to make these. I have an app that plays videos I just need to know how to get gifs on the collages. Is there any way to possibly save gifs off of tumblr on my iPhone and put them into the collage? Any information would be helpful!

interestingly, GIFs do not play in the regular photo viewer on the iPhone, but if you include them in an e-mail to the iPhone, they are active when you look at the message.
A GIF collage would require reducing the size of each GIF and then putting each frame of the GIF next to the frames of the other images one by one, so that the GIF player is showing a collage of one step of every image together and then going to the next collage. If that is not clear, imagine printing out reduced copies of all the frames of every GIF, cutting them out and pasting them down on a stack of paper, making one collage on each piece in the stack, and then flipping the pages like old style paper animation - each of the sub-sections would appear to move separately.
