Workflow
Design motion for the first viewport
Use this workflow when the product should anchor the first viewport: stable, premium, readable, and visually rich enough to sit above the fold.
- 01
Start with a page-ready product image
Use a product shot that already has enough room to breathe in a hero section.
- 02
Choose the page mood
Define whether the page should feel technical, beauty-focused, lifestyle, or premium retail.
- 03
Generate a hero motion pass
Create restrained motion that supports the first screen without stealing attention from the CTA.
Protect page readability
Hero pacing
Calm push, slow reveal, or soft parallax instead of aggressive ad cuts.
Page context
Landing page header, collection banner, product page, or launch splash.
Readability
Keep packaging, silhouette, and product position steady for conversion.
Creative directions
Choose the hero treatment
Explore restrained page headers, seasonal launches, and approachable tabletop motion.

FAQ
Landing-page hero questions
Is this different from a product ad?+
Product Hero is calmer and page-focused. Product Ad is more campaign-focused and can use stronger motion.
Should I upload a transparent product image?+
Transparent or clean-background images work well, but a clear lifestyle product shot can also work.
