For this project, we were asked to create a website for ourselves on 'Wix' , using our own pictures that will be included onto the page as well as research into other page designs.
I made the website by using a simple template design that I then manipulated to make it my own personal site that was easy to move around on to find what you needed quickly. I also added videos and pictures as well as links to my blogs to do with that topic the page is about. This is to ensure the person visiting my website gets a hint of what my work is about and know where to find more of my work easily.
I added my name to the top of every page to ensure that the visitor remembers my name but it also makes up for the lack of images on top of the page.
To make my page more interesting, I used a moving background that doesn't draw too much attention from the text or my images and videos I posted. In addition, I added a few transitions to the titles of the pages and the descriptions to make the website more attractive to the visitor.
As for research, I looked into three different creative page designs to find inspiration and described what I liked about them, keeping in mind what their target audience would like about the page as well. I also commented on what I personally didn't like and what could be improved for each page I looked at. After looking at the multiple different pages, it gave me an idea as to how I want my page to move and interact with my audience. As well as showing me what doesn't go well with what. For example, if the work posted is compact, you shouldn't use a busy background as it could push the reader away as it's too much.
After looking at my end result, I think my website turned out well. I liked how It wasn't too compact but showed my work off nicely. Though, if I had to do it again I would spend more time researching other creative websites so I could have more inspiration and more idea of what made a good, proper website. Moreover, I may add more links and buttons to make the page interact with my audience more, as well as helping them navigate around the site with ease.
Using a website as a type of portfolio is a modern way to persuade others to invest in you. It also opens up more opportunities for other companies or jobs to find you, so you are not just limited to the companies you would go in and show a portfolio in by hand.
