The marketing site for **Two Tales VFX**: Next.js 16 (App Router), Tailwind CSS v4, exported as static HTML.

```bash

npm run dev # http://localhost:3000

|
npm run build # static site in ./out

## Editing content
|
|
|
|
All copy (studio info, services, projects, contact email) lives in
|
|
[`content/site.ts`](content/site.ts). Items marked `TODO` are placeholders.
|
|
|
|
- **Projects:** add an entry to `projects`. Put stills in `public/work/` and set
|
|
`image: "/work/name.jpg"` (2.39:1 looks best). `video` accepts an MP4 path
|
|
or a Vimeo/YouTube embed URL. Each project gets a page at `/work/<slug>/`.
|
|
- **Showreel:** drop `public/reel.mp4` (muted, looping, ideally under 10 MB) and
|
|
`public/reel-poster.jpg`, then set `site.reel` and `site.reelPoster`.
|
|
- **Logo:** the fox mark is a vector in `components/Fox.tsx` / `public/fox.svg`,
|
|
traced from `G:\_ADMIN\TWOTALESLOGO.png`. Favicons are `app/icon.png` and `app/apple-icon.png`.
|
|
|
|
## On-set screen markers (`/set`)
|
|
|
|
`twotalesvfx.com/set` is a tool page for production crews (not linked from the site,
|
|
not indexed). It lists screen-tracking marker images, highlights the one matching the
|
|
device it's opened on, and shows it full-screen in one tap. It works offline after the
|
|
first visit.
|
|
|
|
To add a device, drop PNGs into `public/set/markers/` named like:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
markers_phone_iPhone-Pro_1179x2556.png # full dot grid
|
|
edge-markers_phone_iPhone-Pro_2556x1179_landscape.png # edges only
|
|
markers_laptop_1920x1080.png # name is optional
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Kinds: `phone`, `tablet`, `laptop`, `monitor`. Any other PNG shows under "Other".
|
|
Bump `CACHE` in `public/set/sw.js` when replacing an existing image so phones fetch the new one.
|
|
|
|
## On-set spill checker (`/set/spill`)
|
|
|
|
Point a phone camera (or load a photo) at a green or blue screen setup. A WebGL shader
|
|
classifies every pixel against the sampled screen colour and shows spill as stripe
|
|
patterns plus a plain-English verdict. It is designed for colour-blind use, so it never
|
|
relies on red vs green. Views: Spill, Screen (keyed area as one flat colour), Key (rough
|
|
live key with despill) and Evenness (screen brightness bands). "Pick white" sets a
|
|
neutral reference, like a white balance pick. The code is in `components/set/SpillChecker.tsx`;
|
|
thresholds are tuned on a real Alexa car-interior plate. The camera needs https.
|
|
|
|
## On-set plate comp (`/set/plate`)
|
|
|
|
For shooting a foreground against a background plate that's already been shot. Load the
|
|
plate (fit to width, then drag / pinch / scroll to place it), start the camera, and draw a
|
|
polygon mask around where the foreground goes: the camera shows inside the mask, the plate
|
|
everywhere else. "Move plate" and "Draw mask" show the camera faintly over the whole plate
|
|
for lining up. The plate, its placement and the mask are remembered between visits. The
|
|
code is in `components/set/PlateComp.tsx`.
|
|
|
|
