Koptsev - a studio site for a video producer who grades his own work. Alen is a perfectionist. Layout, type, motion, and the smallest spacing had to survive his eye.
Goal - make the reel the first meeting. A client should feel the picture before they read a price, and still find a way to write.
I designed and built the site as one piece: a film-slate open, a full-frame hero, and a work list whose preview follows the cursor.
Homepage
The first frame is a film, not a banner. VIDEO PRODUCER sits on the moving picture. The name stays small, top left. The nav stays top right.
Let's collaborate is the only button, and it sits inside the last letter of the title. The picture does the talking. The ask is one line.
Placeholder
Desktop homepage. A landscape film fills the screen, mountains and fog. ALLEN KOPTSEV top left. VIDEO PRODUCER in huge type along the bottom. A pill, LET'S COLLABORATE, cuts into the last letter. Nav top right: Work, Services / Prices, About, Contact.
Clapperboard
The load is a slate, not a spinner. Sticks, a roll number, production, design, date, sound. A001. CAM: ARRI ALEXA 35. LUT: KODAK 2383.
The board snaps as the reel is ready. A visitor is already on set before the first frame of the site.
Placeholder
Full-screen film slate on black. The clapper sticks are up. Labels: STUDIO, SCENE, TAKE 1, ROLL A001. Below: PROD. ALLEN KOPTSEV, DESIGN VADIM FILATOV, DATE, SOUND SYNC. Small type along the bottom: CAM: ARRI ALEXA 35 and LUT: KODAK 2383.
Selected works
The work page is a list of titles over the same moving picture. GARAGE is a commercial. ALLEN_KINO is an advertisement, marked multi-cam.
Hover a title and a frame follows the cursor: still, then the loop. The other titles fall back and blur, so only one job is in focus. That is how a producer shows a reel without building a player.
Placeholder
Selected works over the dark hero. SELECTED WORKS, then a hairline, then GARAGE with COMMERCIAL on the right, then ALLEN_KINO with a MULTI-CAM tag and ADVERTISEMENT. A small floating frame near the cursor plays that project's picture.
What the site returned
Client inquiries went up 45%. Studio visibility online went up 50%.
Alen stayed in every detail, and the revisions held. The site matches the standard he already keeps in the grade.
I am a perfectionist, and building a website means controlling every stage - layout, typography, motion, copy, the smallest spacing decisions. Vadim never pushed back against that; he matched my pace and answered every request with the same attention to detail I expect from myself.
