Each group had to evaluate each others websites for their artist. These are the responses we received for our website.
WWW - I love the homepage and way that the photos wipe to the next looks really professional. The website fits well for a solo artist and the genre of their music. More merchandise (and better quality photos on that page) are needed. URL needs to be changed also.
WWW - the banner at the top is really nice and so is the slideshow of pictures on the homepage.
even better if - it is very plain and takes about a minute to go through the whole website.
WWW - Website looks professional and the font ties in nicely with the genre. I like the idea of having a logo to brand who you are (the magnet) and a banner, be sure to use it in your digipak too!
EBI - Info page is a bit generic in terms of information given. Reword some of it to revamp it. Change the web address so it is Alex Echo and looks professional.
WWW - Love how the pictures slide across the page, looks really professional and clear. Great choice of colours, everything is clear. I like how the pictures link and the same concept is repeated throughout, clear connections. Could do with a bit more on each of the links and possibly change the web address. otherwise really great.
WWW - website looks professional and the font ties in nicely with the genre. I like the idea of having a logo to brand who you are (the magnet) and a banner. Assuming this goes in with the digipak as well the synergy will be there and it'll get good marks
EBI - some of the pages have extremely large font with a few sentences and not a lot else. Perhaps condense two pages into just one page rather than lacking information. Change the web address so it is Alex Echo and looks professional.
WWW - Alex Echo is good however, their theme is a bit unconventional and not continuous. Echo's identity isn't clear as there are pictures of him with someone else. Lack of content which needs to be rectified.
WWW - Alex Echo's site is professional and fun, and practically screams Indie throughout. The photoshoot is of a high standard and presents conventions of Indie, i.e. colour, layout and typography. There is all of the necessary links, as well as a feed from the social network profiles, keeping fans and followers up to date, creating hype for the single, album and music video. Some videos could be included to complement the photography, i.e. music video teaser, interview etc.
WWW - I like this website as it is both minimalistic and full of content as it has links and information which the fans would be interested in. The website has a good colour scheme and looks very professional. All of the website works well but there was a problem with the merchandise as the picture quality was very bad. If this gets fixed it will be a very good website for the artist.
WWW - Alex echos website is well done. I like the unique idea of the pictures on the home page. The home page is very pretty and to me looks quite professional. When looking through the website i noticed that they had very little merchandise so i believe they need to work on this aspect of the website. The info page is quite plane and boring, it would be nice to see a wider variety of photos much like the homepage. Although the website is quite simple it isn't in anyway boring. I dont think they need to have loads going on for it look good and i think adding lots more will make the website look too busy and messy. This could ruin the simple beauty that it has. They have also added all their social networks to keep you up to date .
WWW - Good Looking website, nice menu and title, Pictures look really good and also the connect page looks good.
The merchandise needs a lot of work, use a store app in wix and make sure the images arent as pixelated as they are now. Is there supposed to be a menu par at the bottom of the page? looks a bit random.why is Sam is the pictures ? hes not mentioned, especially as he is a solo artist? either the font or the colour of the font needs changing on the info page, too hard to read currently.
WWW - The layout for this website is great with very easy access to all different pages on the website. I really like the home page with the sliding images going across your screen.There is a confusing part in the gallery as Alex Echo is a solo artist, however there are a few pictures with sam in them posing also, so this could lead people to be unsure who he is. However apart from this I think this website is really strong, ticking all the boxes including merchandise.
