Video Tutorial: Scrolling Video Mockup
don’t stop this scroll!
In this tutorial we’ll teach you how to record your own scrolling video (think a video showing off your website revamp, sneak peak of an upcoming release, or anything you feel like showing off in depth!), and then add it to the screen of a desktop mockup image in order to add a compelling element to a static image.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to choose a large background image in order to keep the quality of your video as high as possible (you can always scale it down later).

Resizing the smart object to match the background image
