Project Title: Portfolio Website Customization for Jimmy Nyeango
Project Description:
This project involved customizing and fine-tuning a Framer-based portfolio website for Jimmy Nyeango, a filmmaker and cinematographer. The client provided a Framer template and requested modifications to better align the site with his original design aesthetic, professional branding, and specific functional needs.
Scope of Work:
Landing Page Redesign:
Recreated the landing page using a white background with black text (inverted from the provided reference design).
Updated the main title to display “is a filmmaker” instead of “director of photography.”
Ensured the landing experience aligned with the minimalist and professional tone requested by the client.
Project Section Customization:
Reorganized the project section beneath the header video to match the old design template layout (three evenly spaced content squares).
Integrated the custom title design as per the client’s visual reference.
Cross-Device Optimization:
Adjusted sizing and layout issues to ensure full-frame content display across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
UI/UX Improvements and Bug Fixes:
Added missing envelope icon on the Information page.
Updated browser tab title to “jimmynyeango.”
Implemented animation for the content section to smoothly slide into place on load, matching behavior from a reference template.
Removed bottom scroll gap at the end of the page for a clean finish.
Ensured header video’s loading stripe bars match the main background color for visual consistency.
Navigation and Page Behavior Enhancements:
Configured the index page to follow the client's desired structure, removing unused pages.
Fixed homepage load and navigation return issues (e.g., clicking the client’s name returns user to homepage).
Toggle Feature Development:
Developed a custom “Filmmaker / Cinematographer” toggle switch, enabling users to switch between two slightly different homepage variants.
The “Filmmaker” version features a black background with grey text, while the “Cinematographer” version retains the default white/black theme.
The active toggle state is visually indicated using bold formatting.
Removed index navigation from the secondary homepage as requested.
Platform:
Framer (no-code/low-code website builder)
Outcome:
The result is a clean, modern, and professionally presented portfolio site tailored for a creative professional. The site reflects Jimmy Nyeango’s brand identity, supports dual representations of his work, and provides a seamless experience across all devices.
