R+P Post 23: Planning my web pages

The website is an important part of linking our media platforms together as it allows for videos to be watched, photos to be viewed and social media pages to be accessed. We will show synergy through the use of the same font on both the website and album cover. Also, we will have the reoccurring motif of lights and bright colours throughout everything that we make.

When thinking about what website design we wanted, we sketched out a rough idea of the layout on an A4 piece of paper which can be seen on the right. In order for us to have lots of images we could use, we needed to schedule a date to take the promo shots, which would include a variety of outfits, make-up and hair styles.








We researched some websites which consisted of the same scroll layout that we wanted, rather than lots of different pages. During this research we found out that AlunaGeorge's website, along with Rae Sremmurd's, both use the layout we wanted and so we took ideas from both of these in order to make ours retain the same professional quality.

A main feature that we wanted to include, taking inspiration from AlunaGeorge's website, was a landing page that showed the artist's style and had buttons to take the viewer through several photos, one of which would be a promotion for the album.

Another feature we wanted our website to include was a list of the tour dates, taking inspiration from Rae Sremmurd's website, and using a live ticketmaster link to redirect the viewer to a page to buy tickets for the tour.

Ultimately, we want to create a visually interesting website that will engage our audience and allow for them to get involved by buying tickets and merchandise. We want them to feel like they have opportunities to follow our artist and keep them excited.
