The Space - Single Film Campaign WordPress Theme 1.6.4

The Space (by TemPlaza) is a niche, high-impact WordPress theme designed specifically for Single Film Campaigns. It is built to act as the primary marketing hub for a single movie, documentary, or indie film project, providing an immersive, cinematic experience that a standard business theme cannot replicate.

As of early 2026, it is noted for its clean code and "modest appearance," making it ideal for filmmakers who want their content (trailers and imagery) to do the heavy lifting.

Core Features for Filmmakers

Cinematic Hero Sections: Supports fullscreen video backgrounds and high-resolution sliders to showcase film trailers or key art immediately upon landing.

Film-Specific Custom Post Types: Unlike generic themes, it includes dedicated modules for:

Cast & Crew: Specialized layouts to list actors, directors, and production staff with photos and bios.

Trailer Video: Integrated video elements that support YouTube, Vimeo, and self-hosted MP4s.

Film Story: A narrative-focused layout for plot summaries and director's statements.

WPBakery Integration: Includes WPBakery Page Builder (Visual Composer) with 24+ custom modules designed specifically for this theme, allowing for drag-and-drop customization without coding.

AJAX Navigation: Supports smooth transitions between sections, keeping the user on the page and reducing the "bounce" often associated with film marketing sites.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

One-Click Demo Import: You can replicate the "movie studio" look in minutes by importing the sample data.

Child Theme Included: Important for developers who want to add custom CSS or PHP functions without breaking core updates.

Clean & Lightweight: Because it focuses on a single-film campaign rather than a massive movie database, it avoids the "bloat" of themes like AmyMovie.

Cons:

Not Gutenberg Native: While it works on modern WordPress versions, its core design logic still relies heavily on the "Classic" builder (WPBakery).

Niche Focus: If you are trying to build a massive movie review site or a database of 1,000 films, this "Single Campaign" theme will feel too limited.

Implementation Tip

For a high-conversion campaign, use the Fullscreen Video module for your main header. In 2026, user attention spans are shorter than ever; having a silent, high-quality "teaser" loop in the background of your homepage is the most effective way to keep visitors on the site long enough to scroll down to the "Tickets" or "Release Date" section.
