Started Using Wix To Create Band Web Page

For one of our ancillary tasks we have to design a website homepage for our band. We are going to do this using Wix.com, a site which allows you to create your own websites for free.

Wix has lots of pre-made templates that you can use for your own. After looking through many different templates I decided that it would be better to create our own page from scratch as there weren't any templates that I felt had the correct look for the genre and style of music that our music video is.

I started with a plain black background and added a smoke affect overlay. I then took the band's album cover "Fever" (which is the album from which our music video song choice is taken) and added a gradient fade to black to use as a background for the area's where text, links, photos, videos etc will be displayed on the web page.

I then added the Band's logo to the top of the page, this is of the band's name "Bullet For My Valentine" in their signature font. Below is a picture of this work so far.



I will blog more as I finish creating each section of the website.

  1. This look very effective. Try to talk more about how what you are doing suits the style of music, the potential target audience etc
