Website Creation

Once we'd layed out and designing our website, we began the implementation using Wix.com, a user-friendly online platform to create websites using 'drag and drop' tools. As I had previously used this website I took the lead in creating with Amy C as design consultant.

As one of our criteria was to be user-friendly and to fill no more than one page, we knew the simpler the website, the better. We agreed to start with a completely blank document in order to make sure we stuck to this and did not over-complicate it.

We laid all the features we wanted on the webpage in the simplest form so we could envisage what the page would like. At this stage, the typography is not designed and the featured image of the antogonist has not been taken, therefore we had to leave spaces for them. The advantage to this is that we can work out exactly what sort of image we want or can have of the antagonist before we take the pictures, hopefuly resulting in an efficient and quick photoshoot.

We added text but left the formatting until the image and typography were decided so we knew what would fit in and be appropriate.

A video was embedded in preparation for our trailer being uploaded to YouTube. The social networking links and menu were added as images but were not turned into hyperlinks as of yet.
