WEBSITE IDEAS

As part of our A2 media coursework portfolio, we have chosen to create a Digipak and a Website as our two ancillary products. Due to the fact that I will be editing the music video, as a group we have decided for Amid to work on the Digipak, bringing in his drawing and animation experience, and for Trenay to work on the Website, with his extensive knowledge on networking, from his Cisco Course. This means that when we enter the post production stage of the music video, everyone will have something to do, which will all contribute to our final project.

 

In order to be able to successfully create a Website, it is important that we find one, or a couple, that we can take inspiration from, to help us to create our own. I suggested for Trenay to look at the Clean Bandit website, as I feel that their theme matches our branding and style, meaning that if we were to create a similar website, I feel that it would be just as effective. Similarly to the Digipak, I feel that after this initial planning, it would be best for us to leave Trenay to work on the website himself, so that he can produce his desired outcome, without me or Amid hindering this in any way.

 

Clean Bandit’s Home Page, features their latest music video, which I feel is a vital trait, which we should also use. Having our music video be the first thing that people see when visiting our website means that they are most likely to watch it, before navigating away, or doing anything else on the site. This also means that the video thumbnail is something that we need to consider properly, as it will be thing that draws people in, and would work most effectively to summarise our entire video in a single frame. A screenshot of Clean Bandit’s Home Page can be seen below:

Here are a few more screenshots of Clean Bandit’s website, in which we wish to draw a lot of inspiration from:

From talking to Trenay, relating to his ideas for the Website, I feel confident that he is going to create a strong website, which is complementary to our desired outcome of our music video. The website will also be a great way for us to integrate our music video, photos from the shoots, and the track onto one platform, just like an artist or band would have, to be able to successfully promote themselves. The next page focuses on some of the drafts that Trenay has created, as he works towards completing the Website.
