Shader Pack 2: Calm Motion: five slow backgrounds that stay out of your content’s way

Shader Pack 2: Calm Motion collects Aurora Veil, Halftone Tide, Coral Bloom, Ridgeline and Caustic Depths: calm animated WebGL backgrounds with no flicker or strobing, ready for HTML or Divi 5.

Shader Pack 2: Calm Motion: five slow backgrounds that stay out of your content’s way

Shader Pack 2: Calm Motion is five slow-moving backgrounds built to sit quietly behind your content: aurora curtains, a halftone tide, living coral, flowing ridgelines and underwater caustics. Slower pacing, eased pointer response, a gentle fade-in on load and no flicker, strobing or bursts.

The five shaders

  • Aurora Veil: slow aurora curtains over a still mirrored lake and quietly twinkling stars.
  • Halftone Tide: drifting light fields printed as a hexagonal halftone, with a wandering tide line.
  • Coral Bloom: a living chemical pattern that morphs between coral mazes and dividing cells.
  • Ridgeline: fifty-six Unknown Pleasures-style ridgelines over terrain flowing toward the viewer.
  • Caustic Depths: underwater caustics on a violet sea floor, with soft light shafts and drifting motes.

What you get

  • HTML drop-in: a JavaScript file for each shader, a copy-paste snippet and a demo page with all five.
  • Divi 5: an importable section for each shader, plus a file with all five sections.
  • The original standalone HTML pages, a gallery page, preview images and README files with install steps and settings.
  • LICENSE.txt (Schimke Studios Shader License).

Plain WebGL2, no external libraries. Each shader pauses when it scrolls out of view, respects prefers-reduced-motion and falls back to a static CSS gradient if WebGL2 is unavailable.

Price: $20 for the pack, or $5 for any single shader.

Live preview: open the pack page and hit Preview fullscreen to watch the shaders run live, full-screen, before you buy. You can switch between all five in the preview. Press Esc or the X to close.
