Erin G. Wesley: standout portfolio website with easter eggs for a cinematographer

The focus for the entire experience is Erin’s incredible videography catalog. The main gallery creates a fluid and easy to navigate structure — built for speed so the user can cycle through multiple projects in a quick, dynamic fashion. There are so many easter eggs and little experiences within this seemingly simple portfolio site — but you have to dig around to find them. The most unique element on the site is Z-Space gallery, which allows to zoom into Erin’s creative catalog in an unexpected way. It’s a visually interesting way to view all of Erin’s work in one place, and is just a lot of fun to play around with. The gallery reacts to cursor position, and can be scrolled forward and backwards through ‘time’ offering a unique glimpse into the mind of Erin Wesley.

Erin needed an ability to manage all the new content she was generating. For content management we used Strapi, which was completely customizable and allowed us to build it specifically for Erin’s day-to-day site management needs. Because of Strapi&#39;s minimalistic interface it is easy to interact and work with content rather than navigate the dashboard.

Vana: a breathtaking app

Mobile app consists of mindful courses and breath exercises with repetitive patterns and sound accompaniment. Main features of the app are personalized recommendations system for the users, tools for progress tracking and collecting feedback. The overall aesthetic based on sensations felt through the breathwork. Gradients, cropped and blurry photos create a unique atmosphere of balance and motion at the same time.

Facilitators use their dashboard to add breathing patterns and compose them into full courses with additional content to support the experience. We have developed a visual and easy-to-use Pattern Builder that lies in the core of the process. It greatly reduces the amount of extra steps needed to wrap up a finished course.

The Admin Panel is quite similar to Facilitator’s Portal, but has loads of extra features like content moderation, financial reports, user management, and analytics.

Matthew Fisher:
a long lasting relationships

The site is a front-end React Web App that is powered by the Shopify Storefront API for e-commerce logic, products and most of the content. This allows us to create a unique design, embed cool galleries and animations, while maintaining the functionality of e-commerce. At the end your site will not only work like an online shop, but also look the way you want it. We have self-written custom approaches and solutions that help us overcome visual challenges. Most prominent are the custom scroll component and the prediction algorithm.

Reclaim Your DNA: an interactive digital  museum

To create our website, we used Next.js as a front-end framework for building web applications, three.js, react-three-fiber for working with 3-D objects and GSAP for animations.

The shoemaker’s child has no shoes: a website for the digital design studio

To unbind our creativity we needed something more than CSS and JS. On the front end, we used React with the PixiJS and three.js libraries. The back end and CMS are based on Prismic. That allowed us to develop animations that cannot be created with conventional technologies. Shaders written with GLSL relocate calculations from CPU to GPU. That helps maintain high performance when it comes to rendering multiple complex animations simultaneously.

The overall aesthetic is minimal and bold, which pairs really well with the interactivity of the elements.

We worked through many combinations of animations and interactions to find a balance that worked for us. When brainstorming we have realized that none of the references were a perfect fit for an authentic look of the site. So we wrote custom solutions for a vast majority of animations and interactions ourselves.Running this amount of complex animations smoothly on any device, be it an old laptop or a smartphone, was a challenging task. The usage of shaders improved performance significantly. Combining optimization’s best practices with revising chunks of the project until there is no excess code resulted in further performance improvements. This way we made the site work at 60 FPS on most devices without compromising the visual aesthetics.
