How Spread Rows moves

Spread Rows starts on a stacked deck seen close up, then the camera pulls back as the cards spread into rows that drift sideways, alternate rows going opposite ways, before they gather into the stack again. Rows can start a beat apart, and odd rows can optionally gather at the frame edges instead of the centre. Twelve slots, interleaved so neighbouring rows never show the same pictures together. Best at 16:9.

In the studio you can tune its 11 settings along with the background, shadow and loop length, and your images never leave your device.
