Orbital sudiv — Free Cinematographer Portfolio Template for Framer

Orbital sudiv is a free 2-page dark portfolio template for Framer, listed under the @surya-selvi profile. It is a one-scroll personal site for a photographer or cinematographer, plus a 404, and it has no CMS. Skip it if you need project case studies, a collection, or a Contact page. JORGE covers that job. Looking for something else? The portfolio shortlist compares the field, and the free Framer templates hub has the rest.

Who should remix Orbital sudiv?

Imagine a 24-year-old cinematographer in Mumbai who shoots portraits, food and beverage, and live events. He has an Instagram, a showreel link, and a few brand clients, and he wants one URL to put in a bio. The sample page is written for exactly that person: a portrait, a short story about how he works, a small facts table, and two buttons. Orbital sudiv suits any visual storyteller who wants to be understood in thirty seconds.

Skip it if clients choose you after reading project write-ups. There are no work pages here, so every film or shoot would have to live on the single scroll or on an outside link. Studios, agencies, and anyone selling services should look at JORGE or a larger roundup pick. If you want a lighter, more playful hero, the sibling file Filmstrip takes the same brief in white.

What Orbital sudiv looks like

The page is near-black, with a huge condensed all-caps name across the top and a rounded portrait beside the bio. Body text is a clean sans in white at a readable size. A floating pill nav holds About, Explore, Chapters, and Menu. A small round cursor dot trails the pointer. It feels like a film credit card rather than a design studio site, quiet and a little cinematic.

That mood helps trust. A cinematographer who shows restraint reads as someone who will not overdirect a client’s shoot. The fight is the sample content. It is one named person with a detailed biography, so you will rewrite every line, and the portrait crop is tied to the original photo. A bright, colorful brand will spend an evening undoing the dark palette.

Pages included in Orbital sudiv

Two pages, named as Framer lists them:

• Home: the whole site on one scroll, with the name, portrait, bio, a Based, Discipline, Focus, and Currently table, and Say hello and Instagram buttons. The nav items Explore and Chapters point to sections on this page.
• 404: a branded dead end for broken links.

There is no separate About, Work, or Contact route. That keeps the file fast to edit and means anything you want to add, such as a showreel page, is a page you build yourself.

What is distinctive about Orbital sudiv

• Facts table instead of a paragraph. Based, Discipline, Focus, and Currently let a client scan who you are and what you shoot. Swap the labels for your own.
• Chapters navigation. The pill nav treats the scroll like sections of a film, which suits a story-driven portfolio.
• Oversized condensed name. The headline is the logo. It is bold, and it only works with a short name.
• Dark single scroll. No sub-pages to maintain. Good for someone who updates twice a year.
• Two buttons only. Say hello and Instagram keep the call to action honest for a freelancer.

Framer’s built-in SEO and analytics are platform tools, not a reason to pick this file.

When to remix Orbital sudiv, and when to skip

Remix it when you want a dark, text-led personal page and you are comfortable sending visitors to Instagram or Vimeo for the actual work. The creator is not named on the listing, so use the live preview to confirm how the cursor and nav behave on your phone.

Skip it when the work itself needs room. For case studies and a Contact page, go to JORGE. For a light-mode take on the same idea, try Filmstrip. Otherwise return to the portfolio shortlist or the free Framer templates hub.
