The Lottie parachute was floating above the cloud as an extra layer,
which felt busy. Strip it out — the dotlottie player script tag, the
.cta-stack wrapper, the .cta-parachute rule, and assets/parachute.json
all go.
The cloud is now the only landing element. Bumped width 360→520 and
height 200→360 so the Fluent cloud renders much larger; bumped font
size 1.15→1.4rem; added a small negative margin-top to seat the text
on the cloud's "body" (Fluent's base is heavy, the body sits a bit
above the geometric center).
Drop animation moved off the wrapper onto the button itself, with the
:hover rule overriding animation:none + applying the centered scale
transform so hover doesn't fight the keyframe.

Three iterations on the entrance animation:
- Edit the dotLottie animation in place: drop the "parcel" and
"clouds_comp" layers so only the parachute itself remains. Save the
result as plain JSON (parachute.json, 15 KB) instead of zipped
.lottie since PowerShell's Compress-Archive produces a ZIP that
the dotlottie player can't decode.
- Replace the five CSS cloud puffs with a single cloud illustration
from the user (cloud.png, transparent background) sat behind the
CTA text. Bigger, less abstract, more on-brand.
- Stretch the drop keyframes from 1.6s to 3.4s — still well below the
~7s the parachute boxes in the background video take to land.

Replace the gold pill with a fluffy cloud-shaped button — pill base
plus five absolutely-positioned puffs (three on top, two on the
bottom) all in white-to-pale-blue gradient with subtle inner shadow
to read as 3D.
Cradle the button in a 170px LottieFiles parachute (Elmer Vergara's
"Falling Parcel", licensed under Lottie Simple, hosted in
assets/parachute.lottie at 3.7 KB). The whole stack drops in from
above the viewport over 1.6s with a slight overshoot, much faster
than the boxes in the background video, then the parachute keeps
looping in place.
Mouse parallax dropped from the button — it would fight the entrance
animation. Video parallax stays.

Swap the rotating Earth backdrop for an AI-generated golden-hour shot
of Antananarivo's skyline with navy cardboard boxes parachuting in
from across the frame. The hero box at center gets the MVA Global Fret
shield overlaid for the last second of the loop, so each cycle ends
on a brand reveal.
Pipeline: source video cropped (bottom 150px) to remove the HeyGen
watermark, audio stripped, MVA logo composited on the foreground box
from t=4 to t=5 with a 0.3s alpha fade-in, re-encoded to H.264 at CRF
22 (1.1 MB total).
Tint overlay softened — the original navy gradient was tuned for the
dark space backdrop and was crushing the golden hour light.

Tracking the line against the rotating globe was finicky and never
quite aligned. Strip out the SVG route, the great-circle slerp, the
3D projection and the debug overlay — the rotating Earth alone is
the visual now.
Re-add a subtle mouse parallax: the video shifts up to 22px against
the cursor, the CTA button tilts 8px the opposite way for a 3D feel.
On mobile, deviceorientation drives the same vars.

Replace the Pexels stock clip with a higher-quality Earth-from-space loop
hosted in /videos (720p, 60s, slowed 2x, 12 MB). The static SVG arc is
gone — the route is now computed every frame from a 3D projection that
follows the globe's rotation:
- France (48.85N, 2.35E) and Antananarivo (-18.9N, 47.5E) are placed on
a unit sphere, then rotated around the Y axis to match the apparent
central longitude of the video at each frame (LON0=140 deg, omega
=-5.75 deg/s, calibrated empirically from sample frames).
- A great-circle arc is sampled with slerp and projected
orthographically; only the front-side portion (z > 0) is drawn.
- Pins fade out when their city rotates behind the globe; the whole
group fades out when both endpoints are on the back side.
Mouse parallax dropped — it would desync the SVG from the video and
break alignment.

Replace clouds video (Pexels 2098989) with actual Earth-from-space footage
(Pexels 854275 — Europe/Africa visible + orbiting satellite) and remove
the static Unsplash Earth photo layer that was overlaying the video.

- Background video: aerial cloudscape (Pexels free video, 7.4 MB SD)
autoplay, loop, muted; fastest mouse parallax (-45px). Hue-shifted
toward navy and slightly desaturated.
- Earth-from-space photo overlaid in screen blend mode at 78%
opacity so the cloud motion shows through; medium parallax.
- Navy night tint preserves brand palette and central legibility.
- New SVG route layer: thin red gradient stroke (1.5px) curving
Paris → Antananarivo, with a glow filter, a soft halo path
beneath, two fixed pin markers at each endpoint, and a white
pulse traveling along the path on a 3.6s loop.
- Centered card content was stripped to JUST the gold "Accéder au
site" button (continuous pulse ring + hover shine + lift).
The full text block (welcome / subtitle / 3 meta stats) is gone.

Previous SVG illustrations and emojis were dropped per user feedback.
The new intro is a single fixed viewport (no scroll) where every
layer reacts to mouse movement only:
Layer 1 — Real photo: Earth at night from space (NASA / Unsplash),
slow parallax (-18px max).
Layer 2 — Navy gradient tint to anchor the brand palette and
ensure central card legibility.
Layer 3 — Real photo: aerial sunset clouds (Unsplash), 28%
opacity with mix-blend-mode soft-light, faster
parallax (-32px max).
Layer 4 — Gold radial glow that follows the cursor (mix-blend
screen), giving an interactive "spotlight" feel.
Layer 5 — 12 floating gold particles with continuous CSS
animation, fastest parallax (-55px max).
Center card (glassmorphism, navy + gold border, blur 24px) tilts in
the OPPOSITE direction (+12px) for a 3D depth illusion. The CTA
button has a continuous pulse ring, hover lift + shine sweep, and
routes to accueil.html.
Mobile: device-orientation events drive the parallax instead of
mouse. prefers-reduced-motion kills all animations.

The new index.html is a 3-act scroll-driven storytelling intro:
Act 1 (Tarmac at sunset)
Sunset gradient sky, mountain silhouettes, hangar, runway with
centerline lights. Inline SVG cargo plane (MVA-branded gold tail)
sits on the ground while box emojis cycle up a loading ramp.
Act 2 (Take-off at dusk)
Dusk sky, two parallax cloud layers and distant mountains. The
plane translates diagonally up-and-right with a slight tilt and
a glowing contrail, sized down progressively.
Act 3 (Arrival at night)
Deep navy night sky with twinkling stars, a glowing moon, and
the Madagascar coastline silhouette. A small plane fades in
descending toward the island, then a centered CTA block reveals:
"Bienvenue à bord" with the gold "Accéder au site" button that
routes to accueil.html (the real homepage).
Implementation:
- Pure CSS layered scenes; no library
- Scroll progress driven by a single CSS custom property --scroll
(0→1) updated via rAF, layers transform off it
- Mouse-move parallax on layers via --mx/--my (skipped on touch)
- Inline SVG plane reused across the 3 scenes
- All text is i18n-driven with a new `intro` section in FR/EN/MG
Architecture changes:
- index.html → new parallax intro
- accueil.html → former index.html content (full homepage)
- All nav/logo/footer links updated index.html → accueil.html across
the 8 existing pages
- Mobile-nav on accueil.html now also includes Service Commande

Bundle the actual SVG logos in images/payment-logos/ and reference
them with <img> instead of Font Awesome glyphs:
- mvola.svg (from mvola.mg, the green wordmark)
- orange.svg (Wikimedia Commons, square orange)
- airtel.svg (Wikimedia Commons, red wordmark)
- visa.svg (Wikimedia Commons)
- mastercard.svg (Wikimedia Commons)
New CSS block (.payment-logos-grid + .payment-logo-card) gives a
clean 4-column white-card layout with hover lift, gold border tint
on hover, and a 2-column responsive layout on mobile. The bank-card
slot now displays both Visa and Mastercard logos side-by-side.

The default .pricing-card has both a 3px gold border AND a 6px gold
gradient bar on top (::before). On the Service Commande page that
combination made the top edge look much thicker than the sides.
Add a .pricing-card--flat modifier that hides the ::before bar and
trims the border to 2px, then apply it to the commission card.
