Evaluation: Question 2 - Part 2



The existing web page for the Sex Pistols sells the band through using a video in the top right of our image. This is an aspect that we tried to include in our work, we placed the video in  the section along with the tour dates and band information. However, because the program we was using (iWeb) didn't allow moving pictures or GIF files we could not recreate what we wanted to. Instead we added a box that included the original video for A Town Called Malice (seen below, right).


The other album cover that we looked at was Never Mind The Bollocks by the Sex Pistols. The album art is very simple, with the main feature being the bands name. This is something that we should be relevant in our work. In some of the our first plans we had a very similar idea to this (seen above, left). With no artist featured on The Sex Pistols CD cover we thought it would appropriate if we did the same, however with nothing on the front that represented the band we felt it necessary to add an image of the fictional place known as 'Malice'. This can be seen in the image below this paragraph. 



Other aspects that we looked at on the website was that of tour dates. I feel tour dates are essential in the production of a website as it lets the audience know that the artist is doing something and further merchandises as they may see a date that they can attend and buy a ticket to the event. Because I feel tour dates are an important aspect to be included on a website homepage we dedicated a large portion of the information box to the tour date list. The overall purpose of our campaign is to promote the artist and the song that we have published and produced a video for. In addition to this, the purpose to our three production is conveying the documentary theme that we decided the project would be based around.
