the problem
the work was strong and the shop window wasn't. a template site puts every photographer in the same frame, and for someone whose job is the frame, that costs commissions. the brief was a site that showed the work properly and made it easy to hire them.
what we built
a real-time website that runs in the browser as finished product, not a mockup someone still had to build:
- webgl2 and glsl, drawn live by the graphics card rather than played back as video.
- zero dependencies, so it loads fast and there is no framework to keep patching.
- built to sell: it presents the work first and opens the door to commissions.
the outcome
live and running at dpsfilm.netlify.app. it is the piece we point to when someone asks what a front end people judge you on should look like.
