Video nested in a perspective monitor at a street scene

Hi TVPaint buddies,

Sorry, I don't even know how to ask my question the right way. Here you go...I was wondering how people achieve a complex scene like New York TimeSquare with ads videos running in a perspective. I don't know how to nested Video in TVPaint.
Here is my thinking.
so I need to have a layout where I want the videos
then I need to have a running ad video on its own project
then, I use FX stack (Multi-plane? Key Framer?) to rotate the Video and match it in perspective?

Is there a more simple way or better to do it? Or I have to do it in After Effect to have more control? Thank you! :)

For a static video:
1. Create project, create a perspective rectangle as a reference
2. Import video, go to frame 1 of it
3. Select Warp tool in the Main Panel, distort video to your liking, hit Enter
4. Undo, select all frames of video, hit enter twice.

Or:
1. Create project, create a perspective rectangle as a reference, create empty layer as long as you need
2. Open video as another project
3. in first project, select FX > Keyframer
4. in Render tab, select source = other project
5. in Position tab, set the 3 Angle values, hit C
6. Select all frames of empy layer, apply.
This method will also work for a video in changing perspective.
