Parallax Layers template: cards on depth layers drifting at different speeds

How Parallax Layers moves

Parallax Layers spreads cards over two or three depth layers that drift in the same direction at different speeds: the front layer fastest and brightest, the back layer slow, small and dim. Each layer wraps a whole number of times per loop, so it closes perfectly. Calm and deep, good behind text or as a site hero.

In the studio you can tune its 7 settings along with the background, shadow and loop length, and your images never leave your device.

Make a Parallax Layers video

  1. Step 1

    Open the template

    "Use this template" opens Parallax Layers in the studio at 16:9, already playing with sample work.

  2. Step 2

    Add your work

    It starts with 12 spots for images or short videos. Empty spots repeat your images, so a few are enough.

  3. Step 3

    Tune the motion

    Change the 7 settings above, the loop length (14 seconds to start), background and shadow.

  4. Step 4

    Export the loop

    Download MP4 or WebM. 720p is free with a free account and no watermark; 1080p, 2K and 4K come with Pro.
