Today we present a different Case Study from the last one we brought you, focussing not on the technical aspects of a project but on the design process.
We Are Fellows is a small creative studio in Hamburg, Germany, specializing in brand direction and digital design. They developed a dynamic identity system and a new website for NABIS, an independent film company based in Buenos Aires.
They created a new website providing maximum impact for video content while being easy to navigate. The one-page site is based on HTML5 and JavaScript and works as well on touch-based devices as it does on your notebook.

From the very beginning of the design process, it was our goal to provide maximum room for NABIS' unique cinematography - its muted colours and calm storytelling. Showcasing all video content stretched to fit the browser window and starting the site with a film allowed us to do so. From here, we established some secondary design principles:
1. We think NABIS' films are worth our attention
If you click the "info" button during playback, the film will stop as its details are shown - you can read about the film or watch the film, but not both at once.
