Northrun Films needed a portfolio that could compete with the top-tier production companies they were pitching against. Their previous site was a generic WordPress theme that undersold their reel.
- Build a cinematic, high-impact film portfolio
- Showcase showreel video without performance penalty
- Present project case studies with immersive design
- Generate director enquiries and production briefs
- Communicate brand authority through design and motion
Created a dark, cinematic portfolio with full-screen video, scroll-driven animations, and project case studies that position Northrun Films as a premium production partner.
Designed a dark-mode cinematic aesthetic with high-contrast typography and full-screen film stills
Implemented lazy-loaded video backgrounds with WebM/MP4 fallback for cross-browser performance
Built scroll-driven Framer Motion animations that mirror the pacing of a film edit
Created detailed project pages with behind-the-scenes content, credits, and production context
