Sogni

Integrated Audit | Website Optimization Sogni production service company website

Sogni offers video production services to international clients such as Hermes, Garnier, Netflix, and CBS. Their online presence wasn’t matching their fast growth, and didn’t tell the right story anymore. We redesigned their website from the ground up, to strategically reposition their company as an international player. We helped them clearly convey the array of services they provide, the skills they master, and the values they built their success on.

PV Film Festival

Integrated Audit | Website Optimization Poortovecchiio Film Festival website

The Portovecchio Film Festival is a B2B and B2C French film festival which curates a highly selected roster of guests, and serves as a testing ground for many fall cinema releases. Their website was suffering from a poorly performing frontend, and didn’t match the sparkling visual identity of the brand. We redesigned the frontend entirely and with a focus on speed. We also built a ad-hoc lightweight backend that allowed their marketing team to push daily content and updates during the festival.

PDF Deck

Workflow Digitisation App Sogni production service company website

PDF Deck is a solution for B2B businesses developed by Atelier Effe to manage large catalogs of products and services. This app combines an ad-hoc database and backend with a data-to-print engine. With PDF Deck, select a collection of products/services and generate on the fly custom branded print-ready PDFs and web pages for each of your B2B clients and uses cases. For scouting, location management, talent, travel, publishers and more.

The Coded Type

Online portfolio | Brand Identity Sogni production service company website

After running a newsletter blog for years on substack, I decided to use my skills to build a self-hosted, 100% owned blog. I crafted The Coded Type strictly adhering to simple principles: open source stack, simple markdown based backend, with a text heavy and print friendly frontend. This serves as an example of the services we offer for independent creators.
