The Rail Park Website

This project has been a full year in the making, and I could not be more proud of it. The site is full of fun stuff: video hovers, parallax scrolling, full screen navs, spinning gold coins, big ass type, slide projector transitions, fun little design Easter eggs, and so much more. I wrote up a case study that highlights some of our favorite special moments and goes over some of the success metrics that we were thinking of when creating this jam. Read the full case study on Medium.

I hope you love the site half as much as we enjoyed making it. Huge huge thank you to Ryan Johnson who developed this thing from scratch and truly blew it out of the park. Updating this site has been a dream of mine since 2016 so I am so so happy it’s out in the world now.

And here's a link to the actual site so you can see I'm not just building all of this in after effects lol. Hope you dig it, let me know what ya think → therailpark.org
