What if you could choose a movie by mood instead of genre? 🎬
I built MovieDNA, a movie discovery experience where you combine vibes like Mind-bending, Cozy, Melancholic, or Dark and get a personalized shortlist for the night.
The idea was to make choosing a movie feel less like filtering a database and more like answering:
“What do I actually feel like watching tonight?”
Built with React + TypeScript, with real movie data powered by the TMDB API.
This is the mood discovery flow ↓
Would you use something like this for movie night?
Motion as part of the visual system.
A series of cinematic studies created for my Framer portfolio — different materials, movement and lighting, all connected by one art direction.
The goal: make every section feel different, while the experience still feels like one world.
