Parallax Templates from Envato Market

1. Parallax

User any letter, shape, symbol or icon to highlight your project feature, with Parallax. The elegant, shifting parallax background effect will add a sense of depth and drama to your video.

2. Parallax Slideshow

Well organised and easy to customise template, Parallax Slideshow makes use of slices of your images, rather than cut-out shapes. It’s a refreshing change to the style and boasts a simple, modular structure for ease of use.

3. Parallax

Parallax requires no plugins and comes in full HD. Pleasantly scattered with particles and an almost constellation-like patter of geometric lines, this project makes use of a ‘bend and squeeze’ effect rather than layering – and it works!

4. Big Typo Parallax Presentation

Big Typo Parallax Presentation includes 80 different titles as well as the ability to disable the effect in each slide, so you can truly build a custom project for your needs.

5. Parallax Media Opener

A pleasing combination of smooth transitions and rough textures, Parallax Media Opener is a well-organised parallax video. You have full control over particle effects, line opacities, and texture.

6. Parallax

A simple and effective video parallax effect, Parallax makes use of gentle movement and layered textures. There are ten image and ten title placeholders so this is perfect for a short opener or introduction to your film.

7. Cinematic Parallax Slideshow

The transitions between images are really effective in the Cinematic Parallax Slideshow. The project allows you to easily customise the shape of the parallax layers and comes with five versions of different lengths, so it’s a versatile background for any video.

8. Parallax Slideshow

Parallax Slideshow is a simple parallax scrolling background with a modern, minimal design. Each scene has a different animation combination and you have full control over the colours, image placements and more.

9. Parallax Scrolling Slideshow

With no plugins required and a fast render time, you can get started in a flash with Parallax Scrolling Slideshow.
