Creating the website #12

Update: I recently started the improvements of the mobile counterpart to the website. I initially thought that everything done on the computer part of the website would transfer seamlessly onto thw website counterpart, however it seemed a little out of edge and not to the same quality to the computer website. Therefore I have started on this. Also I feel as though it would benefit my work as it would show that I have an understanding that not all of my audience want or can browse the web on their computers and therefore go to their phones. I hope to be able to create a similar browsing experience and I can in comparison to my computer website.
I hope to be done with both versions of the website in due time.

Creating the website #11

Update: I have changed the photo at the top of the home page to be edited a little differently, having a less obvious black and white gradient. I was finally also able to find a way to size the resolution of the photo to be enlarged in Wix without it being distorted, this allowed me to actually make it into a banner. I also added a social media bar to the navigation bar. this was a convention i found from looking at other websites.
I was able to add a few more new articles which are in chronological order to encourage continuity. However the scheduled photoshoot is still yet to be commenced therefore i have used a couple stock photos to fill the headline place.
I hope for my group to be able to achieve the photoshoot and finalize the website.

Creating the website #10

Update: I have decided change a few things on the website home page. I have added a banner which shows our artist, this is a convention I found from looking at other websites by the same type of artist, so I have decided to add this. Also I have decided to move the navigation bar down under the banner, this is because it is more practical and allows for easier navigation. However I have only changed this for the homepage and the navigation bar will stay at the top for the rest of the pages and there will be no banner for other pages.
I hope to be able to completely finish the website by adding more pictures and more news.

Creating the website #9

Update: I have added a small shop window on the homepage to show some advertisement for the merchandise on sale. I have found that it is a convention for artist websites to have a shop in many of their pages, nearly all of their pages, so i have decided to implement this.
I have also added a tour date page, however because we don't have any actual tours I have put all the tours as sold out to avoid any buyers.
I hope to be able to finish the website very soon.

Creating the website #8

Update: some new changes on the website, I have decided to enlarge the name 'EZ Mak' this could help show the significance of the name and allows it to stand out a lot more than it had. i have also brought it slightly down to be able to put a banner at the top for some social media links. I have also added the chat box at the bottom on the screen. I have done this to allow a more 'interactive audience' and create a closer link with the listeners.
From the second photo we can see I have made some additions and changes. I have added the comment box below the news to assume a more interactive audience, the box contains more social media links. I have also decided to get rid of the music box which used to be on the right of the screen to now become a social media and mailing list box. All the changes I have made allow a perspective of a community and more interconnectedness through the media.

Creating the website #7

Update: We have decided to change the website background, this is because we thought that the other background didn't fit in with our group and the diamond background went with our branding that we wanted for our group. I have also added a few more pieces of merchandise to the website, these include: A cap and a Hoodie. We still have no photos to put up for our homepage slide but we hope to have the photoshoot done soon and upload some photos within this month. We also hope to be able to finish the whole website and publish it this month.

Creating the website #6

Update: I have added some photos to the website shop and updated the shop so it is functional, the slideshow at the top of the page shows some of the current items in the shop so it is asthetically pleasing and give the shop more content. I have also updated the cart page and added a shopping cart button which links the shop to the cart so customers can 'pay' I hope to be able to update the news and home page soon.
