A creative production company led by director Mitchell Lazar.

Mottongaba Films is a creative production company led by director Mitchell Lazar, with a body of work spanning national commercials, short films and a web series. The website puts that work first.

Twenty commercial projects and six narrative titles needed to be reachable in seconds without anything competing with the footage. The site opens on a full-screen home with three large links (Commercial, Narrative, About), shows every project as a row of three stills with its title and format, and keeps a black-and-white frame so the footage supplies the colour.

Discovery: getting to know the company, its director and the work the site has to show.

Design: page layouts and the gallery rows, kept black and white so the stills carry the colour. Build: built on Squarespace with Fluid Engine, then checked on desktop and mobile.

Roboto, tightly tracked, for headings and project titles, with a condensed grotesque for body copy. The palette is black, white and ink, with a gold link accent.

Commercial lists twenty projects, each a row of three stills with the client and format underneath. Narrative uses the same row treatment for six short films and a web series, so festival laurels on the poster stills read at a glance. About carries the director's story, a client logo wall and a contact form.
