What a good website should include

What a good website would include
A good website corporates a handful of things. Some websites have  all of these features and some of them only have a few of them. They should all link in well together and all parts, e.g. images, navigation, purpose and it being user friendly so that it sits well as a successful website.

Navigation
Traditional navigation menus are located at the top or side of a website page. However, more and more websites have been using unique navigation menus. In some cases there is no navigation “menu”, but rather a different way of directing or “navigating” the user towards the information they’re looking for.

 User friendly
Being user friendly can bring a lot of people to it. If it isn't user friendly then it will be a lot of people not able to navigate around it.Usability has always been of key importance in a successful website. If it is difficult to use and navigate for the user then they may not know how to use the website and there may be confusion caused on where everything is.

 Images
Choosing the right images for your website can help with brand positioning and connecting with your target audience. All images should contribute the meaning or reasoning behind the website or what the website is there for.

Purpose
Needs to be clear, it needs to be showing the meaning of why it was produced. It should all relate to the meaning/purpose of the website. For example if its a band/artist then it should all be related to them and all context/images they should all link to them.

Website analysis of Dua Lipa

Website Home Page The home page features a black and white theme keeping it simple and modern. The photo featured is of the artist 'Dua Lipa'. This is to show the artist on the main page and this is because that is what her fans want to see when they click onto her website. The use of the male gaze is used as she is seen drawing attention to her lips by holding up the flower to her mouth. This is so that she hits both genders in different ways. There is also a navigation bar featuring white headings that when you hoover over them they underline and this is to help you navigate your way around the website easily. By having the navigation at the top and easy to see just means that they're more likely to keep navigating and exploring the website as the navigation bar will be able to show more things to explore when hovered over. There are also a range of social media logos including Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, Spotify, Apple and emails.  The...

Equipment/Lighting decisions in our music video

Lighting is very important in music videos, as it allows it to be easier to see and also as it sets certain moods and atmospheres. An example of this would be, if we used low amount of lighting then it'll be setting a dull and sad atmosphere which would help highlight the meaning behind the song is not a positive atmosphere. Also the other way round as well, as if a large amount of colour is used then it'll set a more upbeat atmosphere and show that they're more likely to be given a positive media video to see.  Jessie J clip Here is a clip of Jessie J where she has dull lighting which represents the atmosphere as dull and an unhappy situation. The song is of a sad subject, it is negative song lyrics, this is helped by the lighting as its all dull however she is shown with a little more light over her so that she is highlighted as the main  This music video gives an impression of a dull meaning behind it just by the setting...

Evaluation 1 - In what ways do your music product use, develop and challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

A shot that shows a link between lyrics and/or music and visuals.  One point during the song the lyrics are 'catching fire as the wind blows'. We have used a clip within our video where we have tried to portray those lyrics. This was done through the use of a candle and a girl blowing the candle out. The girl represents the wind whilst the candle represents the fire. A shot that typifies the way a record company would want their artist to be represented. The record company would want the artist to be represented in a way that teenagers can relate them. This is very apparent as the girl in the video wants to feel loved and you could interpret it as she has gone through a break up. Something in which every teenager at some point in their life has experienced. A shot that illustrates how your video uses music genre Typically the video genre is actually techno, but we have interprete...
