Jon Ney — a multi Billboard-charting executive music producer with credits on the B.B. King biopic Lucille, Paris "Together" (21M streams), and top-10 Beatport releases — needed a portfolio site that could carry that catalog with cinematic restraint. He wanted a premium web presence under his personal name (not the Animal Head Entertainment label), and needed to see multiple design directions side-by-side before committing to a single register.
We built a cinematic portfolio on Next.js 16 with a theme-switchable design system — three concepts (Theatrical, Editorial, Dancefloor) toggled via a bottom-right pill and persisted per browser via localStorage, all powered by CSS variables on a data-theme attribute for zero re-render swaps. The site ships with nine sections including a Lucille film credit chip pulled verbatim from the official one-sheet, a Melody Man jazz album section, four YouTube-embedded release thumbnails with click-to-play, an animated partner-strip marquee (Spinnin', Smash The House, BB King, AHE, Oxygen), and a mobile scroll-snap carousel for releases. Full share metadata generated at the edge with next/og — custom OG card, Twitter image, JN monogram favicon, Apple icon, manifest — plus JSON-LD Person + WebSite graph and a robots.txt that welcomes AI crawlers.
