Stupid Studios

A dark, cinematic portfolio site for an independent Tamil short-film collective — one of CodeMyth's first two shipped client projects.

Stupid Studios is an independent Tamil short-film collective that needed a portfolio as confident as their films. Alongside Renaissance, this was one of the first two projects we shipped for real clients, and it pushed us in a different direction creatively — instead of a trust-and-credibility layout, the brief called for something dark, cinematic, and visually bold enough to let the film work take centre stage. We built it in Next.js with a deliberately minimal UI so nothing competed with the reels and stills themselves, then deployed it live on Vercel. It's a small site, but it's real, shipped, and still up — proof that our very first client work wasn't a fluke.

We're deliberately not the studio that quotes you a number and disappears until the deadline. Expect short, regular check-ins, staging access from early on, and a straight answer any time something turns out to be harder — or easier — than it looked at the start. If a piece of this isn't the right fit for your team, we'll say so directly rather than stretching the engagement to fill a quarter.
