Immersive pages: video, parallax and full-width banners

Video backgrounds, parallax and full-width banners give a page depth. How to use them well.

Some pages have to make an impression: a launch, a venue, a portfolio. Pandao CMS brings a few effects that give depth to a page, each one placed as a widget, without a line of code.

A video behind your words

A short, silent video plays behind a title and a button. Keep it under twenty seconds and a few megabytes, and choose calm images so that the text stays readable.

Parallax

The background image moves more slowly than the page when the visitor scrolls: a subtle depth for a call to action.

Full-width banners and slideshows

A banner across the whole screen announces an event or an offer; the slideshow at the top of the home page presents your main messages in turn.

Use them sparingly: one strong effect per page is remembered, three tire the eye. You will find them all on the home page of this demo.

    The video behind the title is exactly what our hotel needed. Thanks for the tip about keeping it short!
