About Stack Spread
Eight image cards start clustered in a stack. Scroll, and they fan out across the screen - each card gets its own rotation and depth, drifting slightly with cursor position once the spread finishes. A centered headline fades in partway through.
Built on framer-motion's scroll and spring hooks - no GSAP, no canvas. Card radius, stack scale, cluster rotation, background and text color, and the scroll distance the spread plays out over are all exposed as controls. Respects reduced motion: rotation and scale-in flatten, cursor parallax turns off.
Key Features
8 photo cards scatter from a clustered stack as the page scrolls, no scroll-jacking library involved
Each card carries its own rotation, offset, and depth, so the scatter reads as organic rather than uniform
Cursor parallax kicks in once the cards are fully spread, and pauses automatically once you scroll past the section
Centered headline fades in partway through the scatter, timed to scroll progress
Reduced-motion aware: card rotation and the headline's scale-in flatten, cursor parallax turns off entirely
Framer-motion only no GSAP, no canvas, no extra runtime dependency
How to Use
Drop the component onto a page. It sets its own section height from the Scroll Length control (in vh) - the scatter plays out over that scroll distance, so give it room.
Stack Scale and Card Radius shape the clustered starting look; Cluster Rotation toggles whether that starting stack is fanned or flat. Background and Text Color set the section's palette, and Text Fade Start (0-1) controls how early in the scroll the centered headline starts appearing.
One limitation worth knowing before you install: the 8 images, their positions, and the headline copy are fixed for this release - none of that is exposed as a property control yet. What you can adjust is the motion and the palette, not the content.
