The simple controls, one by one
Size, Aperture, Face camera, Lens, Pass-through, Float, Corners, Border, Shadow and Card count: what each one does, live.

Settings
The Settings card holds the simple controls. Every change is live, and a double click resets a control. Size: how big the cards are. Aperture: how much the shape opens. Face camera: how much the cards turn toward the camera.
Lens
Lens: the card under it grows and comes forward. Lens falloff softens its edge. Pass-through: each card grows as it passes by. Below zero, it shrinks.
Float
Float keeps the cards drifting, even when the scene stops. Rhythm sets how fast.
Finish
Corners, Border and Shadow finish every card. The border color sits right below. Card count: how many cards are in the scene. In After Effects, every one of these controls arrives with the same name, ready to animate.
