A recent client project I built in Framer ✨
→ Scroll-speed parallax
→ Text effects built with Framer Agent
→ Custom autoplay video sliders
Putting it all together has been the fun part.
Which detail caught your eye? ↓
Scroll-speed parallax is the one that caught my eye, it's a small detail but it makes the whole scroll feel intentional instead of just decorative. Did that come together quickly in Framer or was it more trial and error to nail the timing?
What are you imagining now? ✨
I imagined this with Seedance 2.5
Back in 2016 I made a lot of cinemagraphs for HBO.
They took a surprising amount of work. Masking footage, finding the right loop, freezing parts of the frame and getting everything to transition cleanly.
I’ve had an idea for a simpler cinemagraph tool kicking around in my head ever since.
About a month ago I built another small tool using Toolcraft as the starting point, so yesterday I wanted to see if it could handle this idea too.
A few hours later I had a working cinemagraph editor.
Drop in a video → find your loop → choose how it loops → paint the areas you want to keep still → export.
Basically the workflow I used 10 years ago, condensed into a few controls.
Still rough around the edges, but kind of wild to finally build a tool I’ve been thinking about for a decade.
The masking-and-looping history is exactly why a simpler cinemagraph workflow feels valuable; the tricky part is preserving a seamless transition without making the tool feel like a timeline editor. Curious direction for an AI-assisted app.
