38 - Amending Mistakes

 AMENDING MISTAKES I have been through my website and checked for any spelling and grammar mistakes as well as re-writing areas to improve the conciseness of the text. I also swapped out any images I thought weren't right, and edited some to pop on the web page a bit more. The last thing I did was rearrange the webpages so that the content on them were condensed to fewer pages. It should all be good to go now!

37 - Web Page Building

 WEB PAGE BUILDING Have finished creating each of the different pages and images needed for the website. All that is left to do now is to create text for everywhere that it is needed. I found the builder I was using was very user friendly, and as I learnt to use it I found more and more ways of taking more control and creative freedom. I was able to quickly throw together some fake album names and covers, as well as use websites that print personalised designs to get some images of merchandise for the band. These have all been uploaded to the website and are just awaiting some text to go along with it. There are some areas that I will need to go over, such as some of the images on the 'About' pages of the site, as the ones being used at the moment were just images that I could find lying around in my files. I have managed to create a fake list of places and dates for the 'Tour' part of the website. At the moment, there are two sets of links for each area listed, 'We

33 - Website Visual Planning

WEBSITE VISUAL PLANNING Attached are two images that display plans for the website. The first is of the home page, showing the different elements of each. I decided I wanted to base the colour pallet of the website on the colours in the main logo for the band. I also want to use a font similar to EB Garamond, again matching the font used in the logo.  It also shows the elements that I would like to have on the home page, including a link to an About page, the music video, merch, the audio file and a footer containing contact details. There will also be social media links in the header along with the band's logo.  I have many different photographs ready for the website as well. One that I am planning to use on the home page has been drawn out on the plan. If there is space for more images, I would like to use some more forest imagery to further match the aesthetic of the band. Here there is a diagram similarly to before showing a map of how the web pages will link together.
