Built a new Portfolio experience with a three-frame film-strip carousel mapped to a client wireframe, re-embedded it as a home-page section with PNG arrows and a refreshed banner, and redeployed the flagship subdomain's mobile hero slide.

Task Summary

Redeployed the updated mobile hero slide-2 banner (no code change required) with dimension verification
Built a Portfolio page: a ratio-locked stage, a three-frame film-strip slider, wireframe-accurate geometry, a lightbox and a mobile scroll-snap strip
Revisions: embedded Portfolio as a home section, swapped in PNG arrows, added click-to-CTA, refreshed the home banner and stripped the standalone page down to the section

Technical Details

Deployment & Verification

Headless-browser verification of reel geometry, arrows, wrap-around and the mobile strip from 390 to 1440 px, with per-file checksums and backups on every deploy.

3 breakpoints verified | reel wrap-around OK | 17 files deployed

Issues Found & Resolved

The reel collapsed responsively below 1024 px until its stage ratio was pinned; asset-prefix handling was corrected for sub-folder pages; placeholder slides were flagged for client artwork; and a pre-existing external-script console error was confirmed unrelated.
