Card Totem: a vertical strip of cards curving over a drum
A vertical strip of cards scrolling over a curved drum, continuously or stopping at centre.
Opens in the studio with sample work. Free at 720p.

How Card Totem moves
Card Totem stacks cards into a vertical strip and scrolls it over a curved drum, so cards tip away as they near the top and bottom of the frame. It can scroll continuously or stop at the centre for each card, and the curve can bow out or in. Six slots. The tall column is a natural match for 9:16 and for long mobile screenshots.
In the studio you can tune its 6 settings along with the background, shadow and loop length, and your images never leave your device.
