Frequently asked
What is the Cascading Screens animation?
A tilted stack of phones slides in one after another and fans open. Upload up to four screenshots, one per screen. It belongs to the Device Mockups category on velements, where you edit it in the browser and download it as a finished video file.
What can you customize in Cascading Screens?
Every control in the editor, grouped the same way there. Content: screen, screenshot, values, title, labels, screenshot 2, screenshot 3 and screenshot 4. Typography: font. Style: background, text color, primary, secondary, accent and screen theme. Layout: aspect ratio and scale. Motion: duration. Each change appears in the live preview straight away, and editing is free.
How long is Cascading Screens?
Cascading Screens runs 7.5 seconds by default, and you can set any length up to 60 seconds before you export. It plays once from start to finish, so it drops straight onto a cut or an opening.
Can you download Cascading Screens with a transparent background?
Yes. Set the background to Transparent, then export a PNG sequence for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Figma: import the first frame as an image sequence and it drops onto a track above your footage with a straight alpha channel. Export WebM with a VP9 alpha channel for the web and for CapCut. MP4 has no alpha channel, so it keeps a solid color or image behind the animation.
Can you use Cascading Screens in commercial projects?
Yes. Each download comes with a perpetual commercial license in your name for client work, ads and products, and you may sell the edited clip on stock footage sites. Reselling the preset itself as an editable template is not allowed.
