Hi, Again, you need a mask. Here is one that you can try. The split is at the middle, but the feathering is towards the right. Place it between the 2 video tracks as shown. Give it Chromakey alpha. You may have to flip the arrow. In my image,

RE: No way to keyframe "Section" in View/Animation effects?

@eSonOfAnder Aha! The old Section and Camera/Zoomshot. I love them both. You are correct about Section. You cannot keyframe it. It is a one-shot set-and-forget for that entire clip. It is designed to keep life simple if you need to zoom in a bit
