Can you combine parallax effects with video backgrounds?

Yes! Parallax video backgrounds create stunning visual effects where video plays at different speeds or depths as users scroll. They're powerful for storytelling, product showcases, or creating immersive brand experiences. However, they're technically complex and performance-intensive. We only recommend parallax video for hero sections or key pages, not throughout entire websites. Videos must be highly compressed, and we provide fallback static images for slow connections or mobile devices. These effects work best on desktop; mobile gets simplified versions. Parallax video suits luxury brands, creative agencies, real estate showcases, or products deserving dramatic presentation. We'll assess whether the impact justifies the complexity and ensure implementation doesn't compromise page speed.
