## Before you start

Guidance from Reference, separate from the creator's instructions.

1. Read the reference and inspect the project, installed libraries, and available agent skills before writing code. Reuse suitable tools already present.
2. Prefer the creator-reported libraries and skills when they fit the task. Explain what useful additions help with, and install missing project dependencies or relevant skills from official sources when the environment and the user's existing permissions allow it. Respect the project's package manager and setup rules; do not ask again for routine setup already authorized.
3. Distinguish tools used by the creator from your own recommendations. A listed tool is not automatically required, and an empty tools or requirements list means the setup is unknown, not that nothing is needed.
4. Ask concise questions when missing inputs or choices materially affect the result: paid services, credentials, the user's assets, or a different production approach. Use existing answers and permissions; continue independent work while waiting.
5. If a useful library, skill, or service cannot be installed or used, explain an available alternative and its expected effect on quality, features, or effort. Get the user's choice before a material compromise; otherwise state the fallback and continue. Never silently simplify the result or claim to have used a tool you did not use.

## Recreating this website

This is a visual reference. No original creator prompt is available. The following brief was written by Reference after inspecting the work.

Use a dramatically oversized name on one side of the opening and a compact stacked project heading on the opposite side, preserving a large quiet field between them. Carry a subtle paper-like texture behind a gallery that alternates wide single images with unequal pairs, using consistent narrow gutters and shifting horizontal anchors. For a new subject, replace the name, introductory copy, and film imagery while retaining the scale contrast and staggered editorial rhythm.

1. Open the live work or source and inspect the frame images below.
2. Adapt its layout, hierarchy, palette, and interaction patterns to the user's own content and brand.
3. Compare the result against the reference. Use your own assets and credit the original creator.

## What it looks like

Written by Reference from the captured walkthrough frames, not by the creator.

Minimal, editorial portfolio design with a restrained interface and vivid film stills.

- Color: Warm off-white background, black text, and colorful imagery in teal, blue, red, and muted neutrals.
- Type: Small, understated sans-serif labels paired with bold, large sans-serif headings and logo lettering.
- Framing: Sparse title and navigation areas sit above an asymmetrical collage of rectangular project images, with generous whitespace around them.
- Structure: The page identifies Ali Ali and “Directors Showreel 2024,” then presents a selected-work gallery of film and campaign stills, including a suited man in a car, a face in tinted glasses, a panda, a uniformed officer, and other scenes.
