Website Planning


As our website is part of marketing our film, I thought it was important that the style of the website reflects our animation style and so I have tried my best to do this. The link to our website is:
The homepage will consist of the film poster, along with the name of the production ‘Carpe Diem’. This page, like every other will have the links to the other pages and also the name of the production. In the left bottom hand corner, we will have symbols for twitter and facebook- these will not be working links as we will not have a twitter and facebook page, but this will fit in with our target audience. The colour scheme throughout the website will be green, black white and grey. There will also be myself and Kelly’s names at the bottom to show we created the website.
About
This page will be about our animation, with a brief synopsis. The background will be a key picture from the animation, possibly one from the beginning. We don’t want to have too much writing but enough to be able to tell what the story is about, instead enough for them to want to watch it and find out. This again will fit in with our target audience as they will not want to read an awful lot about the animation.
Crew
The next page will be about the crew and an explanation of what we had to do and how we all worked together. Pictures of us whilst shooting the animation will be included and this will also go towards evidence of what we have done. Links to each of our blogs will be on the page too, which shows the work we have produced and evidence too.
Inspirations
Our ‘inspirations’ page will explain and show pictures of all the places which helped us to develop our idea. From the independent animation that we got some of our inspiration from the style of, to Disney films such as UP and Tangled that we liked certain scenes of and the concept of the story- seeing as much of the world as they can. The other thing we liked about the Disney films is that they have a positive moral to their films and this is definitely something we feel would be a part of the message of our animation.
Locations
By locations, we mean all the different countries that Bill visits in the animation, explaining why we obviously (and unfortunately) couldn’t travel to the different destinations that Bill travels to. This page will also include pictures of the backgrounds from the animation that myself and Kelly created, which will give the page a bit more detail and will explain it more.
After I have created the website, the group will have to put together a focus group to get feedback from it and ways we can improve it. A write up of the feedback will be available to see on our blogs.
