29. Band Website Research

-

Phoebe Bridgers


On Phoebe Bridger's website, there is a homepage with tour dates and tickets listed below an unconventional artist's image as it is art but not of Phoebe herself. When the mouse hovers over the image, the screen inverts colours: the black turns white and vice versa. There is also a navigation panel to her shop, contact info and social media. Lyrics of Phoebe's are printed over the screen in red in a variety of fonts when you click a navigation button below the bar:


The use of typography here is significant as it promotes her music and shows a little insight into her music before listening. 

The logos and symbols used on this website create synergy with the merchandise through the shop and with the album cover as skeletons are seen in many different places.  

Wolf Alice


On Wolf Alice's website, immediate attention is drawn to the promotion of their music video, in the placement of the conventional artist's image. If you scroll down on the page there are multiple hyperlinks to different music platforms to stream their newest album.

Scrolling further, there is an artist's image of the lead singer of the band on stage of a previous tour or event. The lighting used is creating synergy with the font colour, the colour of the hyperlinks and the extra line breaks used on the page as they are all similar colours.  

beabadoobee


On beabadoobee's website, the first thing you will see is the promotion of her newest album 'Beatopia'. There is a navigation menu on the side with a range of options, including social media platforms, music streaming platforms, youtube, tour dates and a shop. 

Below the main title, there is a link to one of her most recent songs released, which is on the Beatopia album. This further promotes her music to the audience. 

beabadoobee has included sketch visuals, which has synergy with the album and its cover. The font choice for her album name is very creative and again creates the synergy with the sketch visual.

16. My Five Main Ideas and Story Boards

-
1. The Studio A visual of the recording process of the song itself. The video will begin with the artist (person one) in the studio with typical studio sounds in the background before the track begins to play. 2. The Beach Next, there is a shot of person one walking on the beach which is a reoccurring visual throughout the video in which the intensity of their emotions increases. This will include movement to convey that idea. 3. The Bedroom There will be a 'bedroom shot' of person one and person two lying in a bed together whilst person one is lipsyncing. This is a repeating visual throughout the video, however, the positioning of the characters changes parallel to the narrative depending on whether or not the relationship is steady or if it is rocky. For example, person one and person two will be facing each other in one scene, dissimilar to another scene when person one is facing the camera and person two is turned away from person one on their phone which is the first visua...

38. The Process of Creating My Web Pages

-
 Creating Web Pages When choosing a website-creating platform, I chose Wix. I chose it as I saw the potential of creating the artist's website I had envisioned. I started by choosing colours that I thought correlated with my music videos, such as blues, as I needed a sense of synergy and branding. This also allowed me to add my artist's logo at the top of the page, next to the given navigation menu.  I also added in section background drops of waves as a few of my scenes are on the beach and I saw this as a sign. The blues of the ocean and the sky related to my synergy colour of choice. The first recognisable feature of my home page is the website header video which consists of short clips of my music video to tell the storyline and engage the audience immediately.   My home page has my main artist image next to a brief information column to fully introduce the artist. I slightly struggled with the formatting of the website as I had not done this before, but it took ...
