SCRAPBOOK ANIMATION MAKER

Scrapbook Photo Stack takes a group of images and gives each one a physical place in the frame. Cards arrive with different rotations, depths and entry directions, then settle into a compact paper stack before the last image fills the screen.

It keeps the pacing of a photo dump while giving the sequence a clear opening, middle and end. The final image is released from its frame so the video can finish on a clean, full-screen shot instead of another small card.

Upload three to eight photos, drag them into the order you want, and select any image to adjust its horizontal and vertical focus. Focus values are stored per photo, so a face, product or landmark can stay visible when the source image has a different aspect ratio.

The cards use generated paper frames and tape textures. Contact shadows are created at render time instead of baked into the assets, which keeps the cards consistent when the size, order or output resolution changes.

Travel Recap gives a relaxed stack for trips and day-in-the-life edits. Photo Dump keeps the sequence casual and slightly more varied. Product Stack uses a tighter card scale for packaging, outfits, interiors and other objects that need a little more room in the frame.

Cotton, News and Card change the supporting paper surface without changing the uploaded photos. Title is optional and stays separate from the image assets, so there are no unreadable decorative words baked into the generated materials.

The default composition is four seconds at 30 FPS, with 720p and 1080p output options. Use the clean ending as a cover moment, or trim the exported MP4 against a TikTok or Reels sound in your normal editor.

For a safer mobile composition, keep faces and product edges near the center of each source image. The focus sliders are there for the cases where the automatic center crop would leave the subject too close to a platform overlay.

The order matters more than the number of uploads. Start with a frame that establishes the place, person or object, move through one or two details, and finish with the image that gives the recap a feeling of arrival. Three varied photos can feel more complete than eight versions of the same view.

For a travel recap, use a wide scene first, a detail in the middle and the strongest memory last. For a product stack, lead with the object, add the detail that proves its quality, then end with the product in context. For a photo dump, alternate distance and subject so the cards do not all carry the same visual weight.

Select the final image with the ending in mind. It leaves the paper frame and fills the screen, so it should be a frame worth holding for a beat rather than an accidental last upload.

A single center crop cannot protect every source image in a mixed group. Select each photo and adjust Focus X and Focus Y until the important face, product detail or landmark sits inside the card. The values remain attached to that photo when you reorder the stack.

Check the focus while the card is moving and again when it settles. A face can be visible in the still image yet pass under a paper edge during the entrance. Give the card a little space around the subject when the movement is fast, because a tight crop leaves less room for a small timing difference.

Portrait, landscape and transparent PNG inputs can live in one project. The goal is a consistent visual rhythm rather than identical crops. Let a landscape travel image keep its horizon while a portrait keeps the face; the frames create the family resemblance.

The paper frames and tape explain why the images belong together. They should support the photos rather than compete with them. Cotton gives a quieter physical surface, News adds a more printed feeling, and Card keeps the stack neutral for product or portfolio work.

Varied rotations and entry directions make the cards feel placed by hand, while deterministic motion keeps a good arrangement repeatable. If the stack feels noisy, simplify the paper style or reduce the number of images before changing every focus point.

Keep an optional title short and separate from the generated materials. A title can mark a trip, collection or launch, but the cards should remain understandable when the title is removed for a cleaner version of the edit.

The last photo is the handoff to the rest of the video. Watch the transition from the framed card into the full-screen image at normal speed, then pause on the first complete full-screen frame. The subject should be recognizable, the crop should remain intentional and the paper should have cleared without a black flash.

Export 1080 x 1920 at 30 FPS for a standard vertical timeline. A 720p test is useful for checking the arrangement on a constrained device, while 60 FPS belongs to a timeline that already uses it or to a version where the card motion clearly benefits from extra samples.

When the exported stack feels slow, trim the clip against the sound in CapCut or another editor before shortening every card entrance. When it feels crowded, remove the least useful image and let the remaining sequence breathe. A smaller, readable recap is easier to publish than a complete folder of similar frames.
