Recipe notes
Three UI page cards tumble through 3D from their thin side edges and land as a stepped stack (fully crisp throughout, smoothly continuous splines), keep slowly rotating after landing, snap-suck toward the center, burst into a single turbulent smoke ring that expands outward, and a giant wordmark sweeps across to close
When to use it
High-energy climax sections (the exploding transition from a group of feature pages to a brand slogan); neon dark-field mood; sections that collapse "multi-page capability" into a single phrase
Intent
Three page cards fly through 3D space like thrown playing cards, form a line, and after landing are instantly sucked into the center, bursting into a ring of smoke through which the brand wordmark punches out — "capability showcase → energy collapse → slogan detonation" in one breath. Three linchpins: **smoothness** (side-edge → tumble → landing on one Catmull-Rom spline with continuous derivatives; the hitches of piecewise interpolation get read out), **never stop** (after landing, keep slowly rotating at low angular velocity until the suction; the static segment was cut with "don't stop, keep it rotating" — no still frames in a climax), **crisp throughout** (motion blur/DoF blur all removed, cut with "don't add blur effects").
