Stars, clouds, mountains and a road - each one scrolling at its own speed. That's what makes a flat picture feel deep.

Now the trick. Parallax is several layers, and the further away, the slower: stars, clouds, mountains, hills - and the road, fastest of all. That difference is the depth.

Start driving, and the End Card - over the same starry sky.

That's the parallax background. See you in the next video!
