The reference for boutique film-production studios — cream-on-black cinematic intro, three-typeface display system (heavy condensed display + romantic serif + neutral sans), and a Three.js / lil-gui WebGL canvas wrapped in a tutorial-led intro experience.

Do / Don't

Reference it for

  • Pure-black rgb(0,0,0) page with cream #faf7ef primary ink, cinema-screen colour relationship
  • Four-step dark surface hierarchy: #000 page, rgb(31,31,31), rgb(66,66,66) raised, cream surface inversions
  • Three-display-face system: Neue Brucke (heavy condensed wordmark) + P22 Parrish Roman (romantic serif) + NB International (neutral body sans)
  • Single-weight discipline (400 dominant, 600 sparing), hierarchy via size + family + case, not weight
  • 17-step type scale from 6px chrome floor to 89.6px display peak
  • WebGL <canvas> hero with preloader-w + tutorial-wrapper visible intro flow
  • lil-gui controller left in production, debug-as-aesthetic, signals "we built this"
  • Webflow-shell + Vercel-sidecar hybrid (app.js + out.css + main.css from a separate Vercel deployment)

Do not copy

  • The "SIENA" wordmark exactly (heavy-condensed glyph treatment is Siena-coded)
  • The Neue Brucke / P22 Parrish Roman / NB International typefaces if the brand has its own display face (these are commercial licences from specific foundries)
  • The "Fast-paced and engrossing" pull-quote framing
  • The lil-gui controller left visible unless the brand has a real reason to expose parameters
  • The Webflow + Vercel-sidecar hybrid architecture unless replicating a marketing-team-driven CMS workflow
  • The intro-tutorial-as-homepage pattern unless the brand has comparable narrative content to justify gating
  • The 89.6px display peak unless the brand wordmark can carry that scale
  • The "Siena Film Foundation" namespace

Signature moves

cream-on-black three-face display system

a pure-black page with cream #faf7ef ink runs a three-display-face system (heavy condensed display + romantic serif + neutral sans), hierarchy via size, family and case rather than weight (400 dominant)

two-easing cinematic motion rhythm

a two-easing system (easeOutQuint cubic-bezier(.23,1,.32,1) for short, customEase cubic-bezier(.19,1,.22,1) for cinematic) runs a 0.8s + 1.1s + 0.6s timing rhythm, CSS-native with no GSAP/Lenis, and depth from surface stacking not shadows (0 box-shadows)

WebGL intro experience as navigation

a WebGL <canvas> hero wrapped in a preloader plus tutorial-wrapper intro flow IS the navigation, with no conventional nav and the experience standing in for a menu
