Split-flap text animation maker

by @flipletters· Landscape · Editorial

Big flap letters on a dark, cinematic backdrop. Type a quote, a title card or a channel intro and watch each word flip into place with a soft mechanical thock.

TL;DR

A dark, cinematic board with three rows of large flap letters and no frame or header. One phrase flips up, holds, and gives way to the next with a soft thock sound — built for title cards, quotes, channel intros, and calm looping text. Change the words, the transition choreography (cascade, dissolve, wave), and the pacing; works in any canvas size.
