Cinematic Slider

Letterboxed bars, a slow Ken Burns drift and optional film grain turn each testimonial into a moment of cinema.

Why this style works

Built to convert, not just to decorate.

Testimonials with a sense of occasion

Letterbox bars and a slow drift give a quote the gravity of a film title card. Your best customer line stops feeling like copy and starts feeling like a scene.

A dark stage that stands alone

The cinematic style brings its own dark, self-contained backdrop, so it looks intentional on any page rather than pasted on.

Grain, glow and drift you set

Tune the letterbox size and color, the Ken Burns intensity and target, and whether film grain and a fade-to-black play between slides.

One tag, isolated and async

It renders in Shadow DOM and loads asynchronously, so all that atmosphere never touches your page's CSS or its load speed.

Where to put it

Placements that earn their pixels.

Hero moments

Open a landing page with a single testimonial staged like a film — a confident, high-production first impression.

Dark-themed landing pages

The cinematic stage belongs on dark, moody designs where a plain white card would break the mood.

Brand and story pages

When you're telling a story, a cinematic quote fits the narrative instead of interrupting it.

Questions, answered

Everything else you'd ask.

How do I put the Cinematic slider on WordPress or Webflow?

Copy the embed snippet from the builder and paste it into a page or section — one script tag and a div. The same snippet works on Shopify, Squarespace, Framer, Wix and custom sites.

Can I control the letterbox and Ken Burns effect?

Yes — set the letterbox size and color, turn the Ken Burns drift on or off, choose its intensity, and target the avatar, the background, or both.

Is the film grain adjustable?

It is — toggle film grain and set its intensity, add a fade-to-black between slides at the speed you like, and switch on a cinematic typeface for the quote.

How does it look on mobile?

It's fully responsive — the letterbox framing and stage scale to the screen, and the effects run the same on phones as on desktop.

Is the Cinematic Slider free?

Slider widgets are available from the Pro plan. The free plan includes the Carousel, Masonry, Badge and Video widget types — and you can preview every style in the builder before upgrading.
