1. The website uses a small link to allow the
audience to log into the website. This will then
sent the fans recent updates on the band and
there news. This is small in the corner in a white
font that contrast to the black, so although it is
small it is noticeable to the audience.
The colour beneath the large font in
the middle moves. This is done to
add a creative and artist professional
affect. The movement behind the
writing is effective as it adds a quirky
style to it, separating this band from
other bands of this genre.
2. There is small writing at the top of
the screen which tells audiences
about the recent updates.
However, I find it unusual that the
information is in small typeset at
the top. I feel the website designers
did this as the band concentrate on
the music rather than ‘gossip’.
The ripping effect along the bottom gives
the impression that the band are edgy
which is a stereotypical view of bands from
this genre.
3. The central image is of the bands new album
which covers most of the website. This also has a
link above which allows the audience to buy the
album. This is effective as it’s quick and easy for a
fan to buy the latest album.
4. The colour pallet of the website is
black, grey and white. These are
colours that link to the conventions of
my genre and are seen as stereotypical
colours.
The links at the bottom are in a small
typeset and are white, this contrasts to the
grey meaning that although the typeset is
small the audience are still able to see it
easily and select an option without
difficulty.
5. The small icons at the bottom of the screen allow the audience to
access and share the website to social networking sites. This allows
the band to reach the target audience through technological
convergence. For example, Twitter and Facebook are often on
mobiles and are easy to access. This means it more likely to be
seen as the sites are easy to get on to.
