FINAL PROJECT TWO: WORKING ARTIST WEBSITE BIO PAGE

The top banner to the BIO page remains the same as the homepage heading, promoting a strong sense of branding across the website attached to HENRY.

The phrase 'JUST A LITTLE VINTAGE' relates to the quirky retro image of the artist.

The BIO specific to the music video for 'Pink lemonade' includes the audio visual content of an interview with HENRY. The way this was shot and filmed was inspired by Vogue's interview with Liam Gallagher.

The section below insinuates HENRY is running a competition people can enter via tweeting about the music video. Competitions would interest a 'fun-loving' audience and promote more interactivity.

The section seemingly written by HENRY will give a more personal experience  to audiences who strive to know the artist. (Jenkins fandom theory)

Below the poll and twitter recommendations also similarly play into this connectivity and interaction, however, these play more into the theory that fans have moved beyond acting passive. (Shirky end of theory)

FINAL PROJECT TWO: WORKING ARTIST WEBSITE HOMEPAGE

The working homepage for my fictional artist HENRY includes a plethora of ways in which audiences can interact with the artist, exampled by the Facebook and twitter icons at the top of the page which immediately demonstrate the cross-convergent nature of the branding of HENRY.

The image of the EP cover (as explained in a previous blog post) matches the theme of the website and music video itself as the artist is pictured on the beach, where the music video is partially filmed, and is grey-scaled with a 3D effect, matching the headline of HENRY on the homepage.

The hashtags shown on this page reappear across the music video and within the 'tweets' from fans, showing cross-media convergence and how HENRY is 'well connected' to his audience, interacting with them via social media which is popular to the demographic.

The lemon wedge stickers are links to an 'Easter egg' for audiences. This is 'fun' for audiences to find.

I have included a 'news' section to show how audiences can become more 'up to date' on HENRY. The story on vegetarianism would relate to the demographic as trends show most people experimenting with plant based consumption are around this age in comparison to much older.

The tour is present to play into codes and conventions of artist webpages.

Obvious links to his social media, again, promote connectivity, asking fans to follow his page.

The bottom section to my website shown he is an artist signed to 'SONY' as the brief describes.
