   NE STUDIOS homepage prototype v5.2 (2026-10-09: centered nav; dark grey footer with REVL spacing)
   Built from data/branding/brand-guidelines.md: white is the foundation,
   black only for featured work and cinematic moments, accents sparingly,
   voice confident / intentional / warm / clean / grounded, and three pillars:
   video production, live events, web & app.
   Rule for the Webflow build: code handles motion, Webflow holds content.
