OUR BAND WEBSITE



http://joshspivack1.wixsite.com/mysite

When looking at our website for our band we wanted to represent them as an organic and real band. This is why we have gone for the black and white style to give them that authentic image. We have gone for this type of theme throughout all our products including the music video and the digipak. We wanted the star image to come across on the website showing they are a simple band who just want to produce good music for their fans. As well as not having abstract colours to draw in fans as we focused on the music side of our band to increase our fanbase.  Our front page is different to many other bands website similar to ours. We wanted a big bold photo of our band to draw the attention of the audience to the band so they become more recognisable and well known. This is because we want to sell their image as a real and authentic band so we had a black ad white photo of the band in their smart clothes. This draws all the attention to the band in which we wanted rather than having pop ups on the front page. We kept it very simple by having the information that may be needed by the fans on the top of the website where they can easily click on the tab and directs them to the necessary area. Our photo gallery consists of several pictures from our live performances to keep the audience close with the band so they can see what the performance was like.There is a media tab which gives the fans an opportunity to listen to the bands new music, view the latest music video and also buy the bands new album. The next tab is there upcoming tour dates and on this age gives the fans an opportunity to get a link which goes straight onto Ticketmster to buy tickets for the latest tour. The next page is for the contact information which contains both contact details for the manager; Eric Buckley as well as the booking team; represented by Phil Duke. The tab for the biography leads to a page where there area few paragraphs talking about the band members and where they came from and how they met, how there latest song Use Somebody helped sell out shows across the country and could potentially have changed there lives forever. This will help sell the band as being organic and real as it shows them as being a normal group of guys who want to release music to their fans. This is there brand image as is what is getting them a huge increase in fanbase. The last tab which is the merchandise of the band to help gain extra income for the band members and another way of connecting them more with the fans. This is done by selling variety of products from clothes to Iphone cases to even jigsaw puzzles.

ORGANIC VS SYNTHETIC APPROACH TO MUSICANS

SHOOT DAY

On the first Morning of shooting, were we very lucky to have nice bright blue sky weather, however due to the strong sunlight the filming was effecting due to the number of shadows created by people and camera equipment but on a whole I think we managed it well. Furthermore, the ability to use a drone to film some birds eye shots was another bonus as it added another dimension towards our movie and the viewers perspective. Unexpectedly when filming  we did however come across a problem which was the ride of the vehicle uses in the filming. Due to hard suspension some film was jigging about and quite bumpy which did effect our progress but does mean we have to work extra harder to make the film look professional and get the best features in to add to the 'horror' themed effect. Another problem that occurred on the morning of the filming was the number of vehicles that passed us in our location. This meant filming specific parts look longer then expected and more edite
