The dashboard rises from a steep 3D tilt to flat, like a screen lifting toward the viewer.

What it does
Built on 3D UI Reveal by HeyGen (HyperFrames), Apache-2.0. The write-up and recipes below are varg's.
Screenshot on a plane tilted ~25–40° back, with a soft shadow and glow; it rotates to 0° while scaling up and the shadow tightens.
When: The hero reveal of a web app or dashboard, right after the title.
Watch out: Do not tilt past ~45°; the UI text compresses and the shot reads as a gimmick.
Timing: 1.0–1.4 s, expo.out; start rotateX 30°, scale 0.85, y +80 px.
Also called: perspective reveal, UI tilt, dashboard hero
In HyperFrames
npx hyperframes add ui-3d-reveal
tl.from("#ui",{rotationX:32,scale:0.85,y:80,transformPerspective:1600,transformOrigin:"50% 100%",duration:1.2,ease:"expo.out"},0.3);
In Remotion
const p = spring({frame, fps, config:{damping:200}});
<div style={{perspective:1600}}><Img src={ui} style={{transform:`rotateX(${interpolate(p,[0,1],[32,0])}deg) scale(${interpolate(p,[0,1],[0.85,1])})`, transformOrigin:'50% 100%'}}/></div>
In CapCut
Overlay the screenshot; Effects → search "3D"/"perspective" or Animation In "Rotate in 3D"; add a shadow in Basic.

More UI walkthroughs skills
- Zoom to the Action: The full app establishes, then the camera pushes 1.5–2× into the part being used and eases back out.
- Floating UI Panels in Depth: The interface splits into its panels, which float apart in depth with parallax, then snap back.
- UI Builds Itself Piece by Piece: Grey skeleton blocks pulse once, then real cards, charts and text fill in with a stagger.
- Before/After UI Wipe: A divider sweeps across one screen, turning the old version into the new one underneath.
- Card Expands Into Detail: A small card grows into a full detail panel in one continuous shape change.
- Filmed Off a Monitor: The UI looks filmed on a real display: slight perspective, focus falloff and glare.
