As the A2 course approaches I need to start preparing for what I will have to do. One of our tasks is to create a front web page for an artist of our choice and edit the website to how we want it to look, as we will be doing this in a few months time to complete our music video package.
During the process of creating this website I realised how its actually quite difficult as there are many elements to consider and you have to stick with a running theme throughout so that the audience can recognise and relate to the artist.
I went for The 1975 as they have a well established black and white theme running throughout, ranging from their albums, to dress sense and everything else! Whilst creating my website I found it easier knowing I had a particular theme to go with as it meant I could play more with the display and little details other than worrying about images etc.
As you can see below I re-named the top titles to what I think worked better and would relate more to he band, like having a blog which helps raise awareness to other social media audiences. I added cool concert images as I think it highlights the bands personality and shows the audience what there about. In the 'latest' section I decided just to add a few of their most recent music videos as well as on of their more well known song. Within the music section I just added a snipped from their SoundCloud page as it means fans can access their music even quicker and easier (as we all know in this day and age its so easy to publish your media on a range of different websites). Beneath that, there is all the social media emoticons where fans can follow and access the band members and their music, updates and new tour dates etc as well as increasing in popularity (hopefully).
Overall I really enjoyed creating this website and I'm really looking forward to creating another one that will relate to my actual artist.
