What is Parallax Effect in AI Video?
A depth-based motion effect where foreground elements move faster than background elements, creating a 3D-like illusion from 2D content.
How it works
The parallax effect creates the illusion of depth by moving foreground and background elements at different speeds. In AI video, parallax can be generated natively (the AI creates depth-aware motion) or applied in post-production using depth maps. AI tools that understand scene depth naturally produce parallax in their camera movements. For static images, tools can estimate depth and create parallax animations automatically, turning a single photograph into a video with subtle 3D motion. This is popular for social media content and product presentations.
