Webpage Draft

 




This was the original draft for the website. At the time, an album cover hadn't been chosen so I used a photo of a carpark, as I felt it fit the aesthetic of the band being industrial and moody. The original colour scheme was going to be teal and black, however I felt that red and black fit the bands aesthetic much better upon finalizing the design. Aspects seen of purchasing the items and listening to the music I duplicated on the final website, with a space in the middle reserved for the video itself. The top features different pages of the website you can visit as well as social media links.

This is done through the use of a button which summons clones of the band’s members. This button is decorated to fit the time period, with dangling gems reminiscent of 1980’s décor...

There is still camera movement, with a pan being used at the end of the video for the reveal at the end. This prevents confusion with the passage of time being apparent, which allows the video to accurately portray jumps in time. My video intends to raise awareness for homelessness and send a powerful message about how some people live their lives, as well as promote my band, ‘Wasted Reverie,’ as being a politically charged band. The main character in the video, played by me, will be mouthing the lyrics of the song which will be edited over the footage. Each change in time is marked by a specific transition which removes any potential confusion, with the set designed to match each holiday which is being celebrated. The video is filmed in a church, this gives the video...
