Plane spotting as a cinematic field archive.

Source context: the current React site, its dark orange palette, 42 real clips, 13 aircraft type groups, 23 airlines, and the Brussels Airport poster frames. I explored three visual systems, then scored them for identity, browsing clarity, media impact, and build fit.

01 Runway Cinema Best for public-facing album

Recommended: Runway Cinema.

It gives FPSAlbum the strongest first impression, uses real poster frames at full scale, keeps the existing dark/amber DNA, and still supports the current lightweight static data model.
