Website link :
We decided to make the website using Wix.com which is an online free website builder tool Our group member Faisal Yazdani started off with the layout of the website and produced a first draft of the website, then Me (Humble Awan) and Fatima Ali added the hyperlinks and made the website more interactive and pleasing to the eye. We started off by changing the pictures to the ones that looked more appropriate and then added hyperlinks and added text and coke studio logo to give the picture words. Then since our website was a Single page continuous one so we added divisions by anchors and new sections like a Digipak and album section where we provided a button for Buying the album as well. We also added a track listing and created an interactive album as well by the album tool that was available which and then added the songs that were part of the album. We also embedded the music video of the song Duaa on the website and also created a section for Tours and also an Instagram feed after making an instagram page of the band "Awaaz" So our website consisted of 6 sections which were anchored to the section bar on the top of the website.
Website layout designed by Faisal Yazdani Website creation and hyperlinking done By Fatima Ali and Humble Awan (Me) So as you already know, we must not only produce a music video but also a digipak alongside a website. Going through the different types of websites has really opened my eyes to all the different lay outs that can be used. Here are some of the websites that were especially inspirational, in a way. This is the official website of the artist Bruno Mars. I really like the way the borders slide over the screen to reveal the next image. We may try to incorporate such a thing in our own website. Calvin Harris’s website was by far my favourite website. It engaged the viewer by filling the home page with lots of things; songs, music videos, instagram posts,etc. It had a lot more pictures than text which made it so much more colourful and interesting. This is the official website of the band ‘Guns and Roses’. The reason i chose this is its simplicity. Although we would like to come up with something that is more creative than this, it is helpful in telling us the different content we could use to make our website better.
These are just a few more pictures of some of the website i researched on. This research has been really helpful as i am now aware of the different lay outs and designs for websites. Along with that, ive also learnt what content needs to be present on an artists official website. So far,Ii believe our website’s home page will be full of pictures of the band members along with other things such as pictures of funny tweets, songs , etc. A lot like the Calvin Harris website’s homepage. Other than this, the website will have links to the band members social media profiles, BTS footage, tour schedule, news, upcoming releases and so on. |
