The idear was to produce an interactive pdf-file with video.
primary for mobile phone.

Some kind of Portfolio - with Me on Video, with clips of my work.
Navigation with buttons or wipe (left/right and top/buttom)

But interactive pdf seams to be dead (@Adobe Indesign).
Nice would be a mix of content & pagedesign (indesign) and
buttons, usability and flow (with xd).

the possibility to style with css and to implement responsive variations (handy, ipad, desktop) would be cherry on the cake.

Video in PDF has been dead for quite a few years by now. Buttons in PDF are also unreliable, especially considering that there are countless PDF viewers whose support for various non-conventional elements is not guaranteed.

There’s already HTML for this and other web-building tools.
