## What it is

The home opens on a photo of a domed church at dusk, with the words "Digital Design Experience" in huge type scrolling over the image. Further down the background turns dark for "Work in motion", where the showreel button splits its label in two around a video window.

## What it’s for

For a designer presenting a studio to large clients who wants a clean portfolio with video cases and little text.

## Benefits

- huge type as the main image
- cases shown in video
- background goes from light to dark as you scroll

## Caveats

- The cases look best as video, so the page uses a lot of data.
