Hello,

 

I have been looking into getting a smooth scrolling effect using GSAP. After looking into Scroll Magic, I realised that what I want to achieve can be done using just using a GSAP timeline. I found something on Codepen which had a similar look to what I was after. I have tweaked this myself but have come to point where I need a bit of help/advice.

 

Basically, my webpage will consist of one page made up of 3 full width sections, each one being 100vh/% in height (so 3 separate panels).

  • The first panel will contain some information and a background image.
  • The second panel will also contain some content but will have a background video applied instead of an image
  • The third will be the same as the first, only with a different background image being used.

 

What I'm trying to achieve to have the panels transition into one another smoothly as you scroll. A simple opacity swap and scale tweak so that as you scroll down the page, panel 1 fades into panel 2 and then panel 2 fades into panel 3.

 

I am having some difficulty with my timeline I think. Currently the top 2 panels fade into each other quite well but I'm having difficulty adding the 3rd panel into the mix.

 

If anyone can offer any advice/help on this then it'd be much appreciated.

I'm not sure if others are seeing this but when I try to look at your pen it keeps reloading over and over preventing it from working.

 

I have tweaked the background images to remain static rather thn loading a random image everytime. Hopefully that may have done the trick. Otherwise, it seems OK to me
