MTV Website |
Today, I have contiuned my research into teenage but now that addition of music related websites, hopefully some of this research will inspire me in my own creative ideas for my own website.
The first element I noticed upon entering MTV was the navigation options at the top. I like how when the mouse rolls over the button, the background changes colour to pink, one of the websites colour scheme colours. Although I very much also like the shape of the navigation buttons, so they are funky and unique, I feel this may be in-pratical to do. I will however attempt coding my html so the background changes colour. Therefore, I will need to research the html coding my using w3schools, otherwise searching google for possible results. It is a music-based channel, as are so many other teen channel websites/shows, this focuses only on the charts. MTV also airs a variety of music-related TV shows starring artists.
Bliss Website |
Another website that I have research is a teenage website which is mainly for teenage girls. I have done this to see how this website attracts a teenage audience. The link for this website is http@//www.mybliss.co.uk/home. The colour scheme for this website is mostly purple, pink, white and the occasionally black. From the first glance of this website you can see pink and purple is used to the stereotypical view of girls. There are links on the website to the main features/interviews near the top of the page which then cycles a slideshow periodically to each of the chosen features. Once again the main navigation is at the top of the page, (where I am planning mine to go). Advertisement for the next magazine is shown underneath that and the logo. There is also a drop down menu beneath it, the links that are part of the navigation are bold and written in capital letters, this is attracting viewers as it stands out more. This website contains links and adverts and images of celebrities. On the bliss website there are many clips which gives the viewers an insight on what may be in the magazine. All in all I think this website is very easy to use which gives all the features that should be expected such as; horoscopes, competitions, interviews and main features. Many images on this website are celebrities
A good start to research and analysis into existing and similar products - you must do at least 3 sites, each one on a separate post and analyse each site in full. Consider the site content, how the site is navigated, the use of colour, the target audience for the website, any gadgets/widgets used etc. How does the site attract its intended audience? What do you like about the site? What don't you like?
