This is the homepage for the band ‘Two

Door Cinema Club.’ This is the band that

made the song ‘Sleep Alone’ which we are

doing for our coursework. The front page is

very simple with moving images in the

background. Links for different social me-

dia sites are at the top with a simple drop

down list to help you navigate different

things on he website. The text is simple

with the odd joined letter which is com-

mon within lots of different titles for the

band.

After clicking on an option in the drop

down list you get the same background

throughout with around 5 little clips

showing things we’d associate with

summer i.e. Surfing, going to the beach

and sunshine.

The background is kept the same, as a

result of this the website feels very

easy to use and navigate. The font is

easy to read and is kept the same

across the whole website.

Information is given on their most

recent and popular albums/songs

and how you can listen/buy them.

Once again the same revolving clips

are kept in the background, in my

opinion this is a good feature be-

cause its makes the website feel

more professional and the continui-

ty between pages makes the web-

site easier to use.

This is the homepage for the solo

artist ‘The Weeknd.’ The homep-

age changes from time to time

whenever something new is re-

leased. It is very simple but the

front page has a lot of information

that you scroll down to see. This

makes it easier to find the infor-

mation because it is all on one

page but you have to just scroll

down to see it, instead of having to

go through different menus.

The background is a plain black

background so your eyes are

drawn to the information on the

website. Lots of different front col-

ours are easier to be seen on a

black background. The website is

currently dominated by the new

release of his album ‘Starboy.’ So

you have to use the links and the

top of the page if you want to find

any other information about the

artist.

The font used for the titles

changes and is different to the

smaller text which is largely

similar. Most if not all of his al-

bums and singles cover art fea-

ture him on the front cover as

you can see in the image above.

In some way he features on the

cover.

This is the front page for the

muse website. It is slightly

different to the other 2 web-

sites because they use a still

background with lots of infor-

mation and things on the

front page.

Further on down the front page

there is lots of other information

about the band and what they are

doing like upcoming events etc.

Also something that Muse has on

their website which either isn't at

all or isn't a prominent feature is

the comments section where the

band is engaging directly their fans

and letting them post their person-

al comment about the band. This

is something that many other web-

sites don’t have featured especial-

ly on the front page.

At the top of the page the

band is showing their individ-

uality by giving people the op-

tion to have a bit of personali-

sation with #in the bands

website. Giving the ability to

change the background image

from a selection of images.

Also there is an easily availa-

ble option for fans and users

of the website to change the

language. This is a distinct

difference and is a reason why

Muse has done so well in the

past couple of years.
