There is now a superior version named SuperScrollorama by the same developer which offers more and complicated animations.
It makes use of the feature-rich TweenMax and the Greensock Tweening Engine (make sure you check its license before using) for accomplishing the effects.

The website of the resource shows its flexibility and there is a short-yet-enough documentation provided.
