52. Do's and Don'ts

Do's for the website:

Plan

I need to make sure that I have a general plan to follow, even if it isn't very detailed but just so I have a set plan i can refer back to when needed to help me stay on the correct path. It will also give me new and refreshing ideas so i can draw on it when i need to.

Audience

I need to research who my main target audience for the website is so I can appeal to them specifically and make them more attracted to it giving it more of a chance to boost my music video. The target audience ranges between 18-24 females. In order to appeal to them we need to relate certain features to the audience to make it appeal to them.

Platform/Vision: When it comes to making the music video I will b using a website called Weebly. For my website I want to try and keep the colors as mute as possible with the font and layout being rather soft and easy to understand for the audience

Don'ts

Copyright/Stealing: Taking things from other peoples websites is a form of copyright and in some cases counts as a form of stealing, gathering ideas and inspiration from other people is okay but taking things that are specifically identified as someone elses counts as copyright. Therefore using photoshop and asking for permission is a good way to avoid these situations.

Do's for the Digipak

Layout:

Similar to my website the layout would be rather soft and eloquent and really folk like to fit the music and the artist, the color pallet will be desaturated black and white.
