The idea
Name the problem in five words, one word per beat: "Your site looks like everyone's." Then a vermilion exclamation mark cuts in and the WU! mark builds itself on a grid, as the answer.
How it moves
Heavy grotesque type on hard cuts sets a 120 BPM pace. After the mark, the reel walks through the studio's own site: services, proof, a brief you fill in with one sentence, and a load time counter that drops before your eyes.

Craft notes
- 01
Say the problem first
The first two seconds name what the viewer is tired of, before the studio says a word about itself.
- 02
The site is the showreel
Every later beat is a real section of the studio site, so the reel doubles as a tour.
- 03
Rhythm over effects
Hard cuts on the beat do more work than transitions ever could.
