The idea behind this portfolio design is creating a simple, good-looking and super-fast portfolio experience to give necessary first impressions about a multi-disciplinary experience and to set ideas about possible collaborations which can later turn into a dialog.

So I defined 2 basic problems to solve; First of them is TIME: People don't spend much time to observe a portfolio page in detail. It clearly is about first impressions. In that case a minute of showreel could also be a nice option to talk about a multi-disciplinary experience but i intended to give more CONTROL to the visitors for switching between the works.

Second one is RESPONSIVE DESIGN: I really like the interaction and fast response in "hover to preview" examples. But I was specifically looking for a solution that works exactly in the same way on both desktop and mobile. And these challenges led me to the final design solution: a SIMPLE-looking "scroll to select" version of "hover to preview" interaction which allows visitors to preview the works as they scroll, like forwarding and rewinding a showreel.
