Website Creation.

Today in class we looked at templates we could possibly use for our website. The conventions for websites in our genre are dark colours such as black so therefore I picked a template which suited this. Furthermore I wanted to the website to be fairly simple to suit an older audience as well as a younger audience as our target audience ranges from teens to 40's.  I picked a template similar to the Marilyn Manson and Nine Inch Nails with a simple banner at the top telling you where to go and a spacious pages.

I wanted my website to be simplistic  as this fit's our track, my track is quite spiritual and religious therefore I wanted it to feel that way. The font I have chosen is a simple font as it needs to be clear however it suits our genre as it is mixed with futuristic and creepy. The text is white on black to stand out.

On my homepage I have included my latest video, which will eventually be my music video after it is created (but for now it is the film task we did). I wanted this straight in the Middle like the Marilyn Manson website as this draws the viewers attention to the video which is important in promoting the track. At the side I have also included social media links (not finished) to share the track and also a link to buy on ITunes.

Overall today was mainly for getting used to the website and playing around with the features it has to offer. However I also got started on building it.
