Chiswick has an unusual concentration of media and production companies, and they arrive with a particular problem: a lot of work to show and no good way to show it.
Production companies, post houses, studios and the freelancers around them make up a real share of the businesses here, and their websites have a problem most do not: the portfolio is the sales pitch. Video, stills and credits have to load quickly, play reliably, and be organised so somebody can find the relevant work in seconds rather than scrolling.
That is more technical than it looks. Video is heavy and badly handled video is the fastest way to make a site feel slow, particularly on a phone. Getting it to start quickly without degrading how it looks is a real piece of work, and it is usually the difference between a portfolio that impresses and one that frustrates.
Away from that, the High Road and Turnham Green side is independent retail, restaurants and professional practices serving an affluent local population — more conventional work, where the site mainly has to look as good as the premises do.
