What is a scroll video?

A scroll video plays frame by frame as you scroll the page. Instead of pressing play, the viewer controls playback by scrolling the website — gliding smoothly through every frame of your clips.

What’s the difference between a scroll video and a walkthrough video?

A walkthrough video is a normal video file — you press play and the camera moves through the space on its own, at a fixed speed. A scroll video flips that: the viewer scrolls the page to move the footage forward, so they set the pace, pause on any frame, and scrub back and forth. Both can be built from the same animated Fenestra clips — the scroll video just hands control of playback to the viewer.

Do I need an account to make one?

No sign-up is required. Add your clips, arrange the order, and create a shareable scroll video right in your browser.

Do I need to code a scrolling website?

No. Making one by hand means generating clips in an AI video tool, then wiring up the scroll behaviour in code with something like Cursor, Claude, or a web framework. The scroll video maker does the scroll part for you — add clips, drag them into order, and get a link. No code, no account.

Will the scroll be smooth on mobile?

Yes. Instead of scrubbing a raw video file — which stutters on phones, especially Android — the maker extracts each frame up front and plays those back as you scroll, so it stays smooth on iOS and Android alike.

What videos work best?

Standard video files such as MP4. Short architectural clips work best — for example a camera move or a day-to-night transition generated with Fenestra’s video tool.

Can I share my scroll video?

Yes. Every scroll video gets a link anyone can open and scroll through — no account needed to view it.

Examples

Architectural scroll videos, in motion

Each example is a short architectural walkthrough — a few animated Fenestra renders stitched into one continuous scroll video. Open one and scroll: the footage scrubs frame by frame, so the viewer drives the camera as they move down the page.

Don’t have clips yet? Make them in Fenestra

Scroll videos are built from short architectural clips. The fastest way to make those is Fenestra’s video tool — it animates a still render into a smooth clip using a start and end frame.

Pick a start frame

Select a view from the sidebar, upload an image or browse your assets — this is your first frame.

Add an end frame

Click Last Frame and add a second image. Transition between day and night, two camera angles, seasons or weather.

Write a simple prompt

A short description guides the transition. Simple prompts produce the best cinematic results.

Choose a camera move (optional)

Zoom, Pan, Dolly, Rise Up, Orbit or Static. For a clean transition, Static works best.

Hit Animate

Fenestra generates your clip — then drop it in above to build your scroll video.

Example prompt

“Transition smoothly from day to night, keep the camera static, no camera movement.”

Tip: sharpen your render with the Enhance tool first, and for the cleanest footage generate with Seedance 1.0 Pro, Seedance 1.5 at 1080p or use Seedance 2.0.
