Brain Storming for Website layout


I love this website design because it is also very simple, with Raye's name plastered as a border of the website, and every link is clearly visible, making it easy to navigate through the website. I also love the vibrancy of the colour of green.


Rihanna's website is also very cool, as you hover over the black and white pictures, they turn into colour, which I thought was a very cool concept. Having the contents page on the sidebar is also very useful.


Mabel also has a really cool website. I love the interpretation of the flowers in the background of her portrait. Her social media is also very clearly shown in the top right hand corner. She is also very conventional in the way that the font of her title 'Mabel' is the same font as all the other text on the page too.



Halsey's website is also very simple and effective. The portrait is very conventional of her star image, and the title is very bold like her personality. The website then slides down to the menu bar where you can see pictures and videos of her tour.



I like Stormzy's website design because it is very simple with an image, his name and album title. I can imagine Honor having a website similar to this, with maybe a picture of her lying on her side for her to be extended throughout the whole page.

Are there any conventions on each of the webpages?

They all include a bio/about tab, music and video. Halsey and Rihanna both have merchandise websites, which is a further convention of really successful artists, reaching out to their fans by clothing and makeup. All of the websites shown above have their social media platforms clearly shown, suggesting that they rely heavily on social media for promotional values. Most people my age (17/18) will search for an artist through Instagram first, then find the website secondly through their Instagram page.

What sort of feature would we include?

We will include the main menu tabs; a portrait of the artist on the homepage; music and videos; a bio/about tab and social medias will be located on every sub page the viewer goes on. For the photos tab it will be displayed as a collage, and when you click on the picture it will expand into its full HD picture.

What style/design does your group want for the website?

The website would open with an image of Honor on the left, the menu tab will be on the top, Honor's name will be written boldly next to the picture of her, to make it eye catching. The music video will also be located on the homepage.
