The long entry
Yaw is one of the three Euler rotations alongside pitch and roll. In motion design, yaw shows up most in 3D card flips, product showcase rotations, and any animation where 'showing the back' is the payoff. The eye reads yaw as inspection — when an object yaws toward you, you trust it more.
