Work Project Template
1. Project Title / Hero
Client — Project Name
Optional small metadata line:
Photography + Motion · 2026
Then immediately into one exceptional hero image or film.
Avoid a big introductory marketing statement here. The work should hit first.
2. Project Overview
Keep this to roughly 50–100 words.
Answer three things naturally: what was the assignment, who was it for, and what did you make?
For example:
Camera Department partnered with [Agency] and [Client] to create photography and motion for the launch of [product/campaign]. The assignment included [brief description of deliverables or creative objective], produced over [relevant scope if interesting].
This also gives Google useful context without turning the project into SEO copy.
3. Project Details
I like this as a small editorial block rather than prose:
Client
Whirlpool
Agency
Agency Name
Our Role
Photography · Motion · Production
Photographer / Director
Nathan Kirkman
Production
Camera Department
Location
Chicago
Only include fields that actually matter. Credits are good here too.
4. The Work
This should be most of the page.
Large images. Motion embeds. Very little text.
I’d vary the rhythm instead of making everything the same grid:
Full-width image
Two images side by side
Full-width image
Film
Detail images
The page should feel more like an editorial feature than a thumbnail gallery.
5. One Short Process Note — Optional
Not every project needs this.
If there was an interesting decision behind the work, give it one short paragraph:
Because stills and motion needed to be created within the same production day, we developed a lighting approach that could move easily between the two without compromising either.
That's exactly the kind of information that reinforces “Good work is the accumulation of good decisions” without repeating the tagline.
If there's nothing meaningful to say, skip it.
6. More Work
At the bottom:
More Work
Then 2–3 related projects with images and titles.
This is useful both for visitors and internal linking/SEO.
7. Contact
Very small:

So visually, the template is essentially:
CLIENT / PROJECT
Photography + Motion
[HERO]
Short project overview
Client / Agency / Role / Credits
[IMAGE]
[IMAGE] [IMAGE]
[MOTION]
Optional 1-paragraph production insight
[IMAGE]
MORE WORK
[Project] [Project] [Project]

The key is that the template provides structure, but not every field has to be filled. A beautiful straightforward photography assignment might be 80% imagery and 100 words total. A more complex integrated campaign might carry 300–500 words. Only the exceptional projects graduate into full case studies.
