Parallax effect helps create an illusion of depth in an image, and works well on Apple devices and services.
You will need to create parallax artwork for the 2x3 and 16x9 images. Make sure the images you start with meet our image requirements.
*For those using a Windows machine, one of our awesome filmmaker made this quick video to help.
