A scrollytelling image is a visual component to create a smooth, engaging flow as you scroll through the content. When multiple scrollytelling image sections are placed back-to-back, the background of one section fades into the next, while the content inside the sections moves with standard scrolling behavior. This technique adds a dynamic and immersive storytelling experience to your project.

With visually stunning effects and controlled content reveals, Scrollytelling image improves user experience by providing a seamless navigation experience through long-form content. It sets your website apart by showcasing innovation and creativity, making it more memorable to visitors.

Note: When you add a Scrollytelling image section for the first time, the editor will automatically create two sections. After you change the background image of the first section, you'll see the second section in the layers panel. To unleash their full potential, it's recommended to use two or more scrollytelling image sections in sequence.
