WEBSITE PROPOSAL
Transcript: My mood board consists of a sample of media forms that I would include in my website; videos, film trailers and photos; all consisting of a shared theme - black & white. Week 5: Upload proposal. Week 6: Create basic layout structure of the home page as shown in the wireframe. Week 7: Continue creating layout, including the sub-pages and also possibly start creating the monkey logos. Week 8: Continue creating sub-page layouts and start/finish logos. Week 9: Create header/banner graphic and attach logos to the header/banner image. Week 10: Insert content and adminish finishing touches to overall website. Week 11: Continue adding any finishing touches and once complete, upload website to server. About my website idea The website I have chosen to create is essentially inspired by my love of the theme of monochrome and all things black and white. This website will basically aim to include the most interesting uses of black and white in various media forms across the world, be it black and white film, art (traditional and abstract), music videos or album art and fashion or styling. The name of the site was originally monochrome.net, however after thinking about the website name, I changed it to monomono.org instead, as I felt like it sounded more trendy, youthful and appropriate in regards to my target demographic, which would primarily be youth and young adults. Also, mono means monkey in Spanish so I thought I could use that to my advantage when creating a logo for the website and create, using Photoshop and Illustrator, one black monkey and one white monkey to serve as mascots for the website. The overall purpose of the site is to create a cultural hub for people who are interested in seeing how black and white is used in different media formats throughout the world and in lots of different, innovative and interesting ways; really focussing on the creativity and range of content that can be made using a very simple theme and colour scheme. WEBSITE PROPOSAL Mood Board Flow Chart Again, sticking with the simplistic nature of the website design with the goal of the website being 'easy-to-use', I've chosen to go for a coherent, straight-forward visual design that users will be easily able to navigate and utilise. Project Timeline Wireframe The navigation of my website is purposefully very simple; there are four links on the home page that direct users to each specific sub-page with clear and well laid-out links. I want my website to be very simple to interact with and also very functional.
