Problem
The work was prepared for a website surface: muted playback, poster behavior, desktop and mobile variants, contact-sheet review, and a sequence that can sit behind homepage typography without weakening readability.

Problem and solution
Solution
A site-ready hero-film package for Modern House, prepared as a web handoff with desktop, mobile, poster, contact-sheet, and QA assets.
My role
Visual QA + video direction supportSupported shot selection, palette judgement, readability checks, and website-fit QA for the hero video.
02
Research
Hero and footage audit
I reviewed how the footage performs inside the real homepage hero: interface legibility, pacing, edit points, file weight and responsive behaviour.
A hero film should support entry into the site, not compete with navigation and proposition.
The v08 desktop MP4 is 1920 x 1080, 20.42 seconds, 24 fps, and prepared for muted web playback.
The handoff includes separate mobile video and poster files rather than relying on one desktop crop.
The case embeds a cinematic web-safe export made from the final v08 master.

Information architecture
From source footage to web release
Selection and edit are validated in the interface context, not in isolation.

Modern House
- 01
Supported shot selection, palette judgement, readability checks, and website-fit QA for the hero video.
- 02
Checked desktop and mobile versions against overlay, crop, loop edge, and source-lock constraints.
- 03
Organized the final proof into handoff assets that a web implementation can use without another export pass.
04
Visual concept
The project's character becomes its own presentation system
The mockup does not disguise the interface: environment, colour, scale and medium extend the logic of the project itself.
- 01
Slow architectural movement
- 02
Contrast that preserves interface legibility
- 03
A seamless loop
05
Design and system behaviour
Not a gallery of pictures, but a sequence of states
Each visual is tied to a journey stage and demonstrates a distinct part of the solution.
06 / Motion proof
Homepage hero master export
Web-safe MP4 generated from the final v08 master, replacing the lighter proof export for a richer portfolio preview.07
Validation and outcome
Result and system scope
A verified homepage hero-film handoff with embedded MP4 proof and source assets in the local Modern House project folder.
