Website

For our second ancillary task we have decided to make a website. We decided to do a website homepage because no one in our group have made one before so we like the idea of a challenge and we thought that we would all benefit from making a website homepage because we would all develop some new skills. Because we are familiar with macs we know that there is a a programmed call Iweb. So therefore we have decided that we will be using this programme to make our website.

Before starting the production of this task we did some research into the websites of the artists that we had chosen to be in the similar genre to ours.

Jason Mraz:

• Voiceover
• Different Links: Home, News, Media etc.
• Abstract Layout
• Animation - Head moves

David Gray:

• Basic Insights all on homepage
• Latest News
• Tour Dates
• Links

Jose Gonzalez:

• First page click to enter site
• Simplistic/Boring
• Formal
• Discography
• Video
• Downloads - Screensavers

Jack Johnson

Newton Faulkner

From looking at these websites the main things that need to be included are:

• Links
• Upcoming Dates
• Media
• Easy to navigate

These are the things that our target audience will be looking for, so we have to make sure we include these in our site. Also we will make sure that our site is interesting and eye catching so that people enjoy looking at it.
