This is the planning of my official websites.
Annotations:
The title of Ghost Lover in Pink to express the genre of the film where it contains bright atmosphere. The background image of the website also will be a static image of one of the scene in the film. I don’t necessarily want the poster to be my background image.
#GhostLoverOfficial also follows the contemporary style in media social where hashtag is necessary in order to search something in social networking sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or Tumblr.
Conventionally, the navigation for trailers is in horizontal or vertical line. If the navigation placed horizontally it would be across the website and if it placed vertically, this will be found at the left side of the website. However, I would like to subverts the conventional and follow the contemporary navigation style. I’ve got inspired by the layout of tumblr and other film websites such as ‘How To Be Single’, ‘Paper Towns’ and ‘The Fault in Our Stars’.
The boxes are the navigation style inspired by tumblr in more organised way. I would like to have the page’s name at the centre and the background image of each navigation box is the iconic sign of rom-com genre. The opacity of background image also would be lower so that the written code of navigation can be seen clearly.
- Trailer – This page will show both teaser trailer and official trailer of the film
- Story – This page will have the synopsis of ‘Ghost Lover’.
- Cast – This page will have the actors’ name as well as the crews involved. This will be a brief credits page.
- Behind The Scenes – There will be a bloopers video to show the outtakes during the filming.
- Gallery – There will be images of the posters and images during the filming.
- Buy Your Ticket! – This will link to the page where the audience can get their ticket through online foe their own convenience.
There will be a social media bar where several iconic signs of other social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube is showing at the right site of the website vertically. This helps the audience to reach the other media text directly and it is for their convenience. By doing this may attract wider audience as it gives awareness to the follower of the audience once that audience followed the official account through different social sites. This marketing technique will be effective once the official account started to have more followers.
I also have age classification for the film according to both BBFC and MPAA. This is an additional information for the audience although the size of the iconic sign of the rating is so small. This connotes that the additional information would be insignificant and less likely factor of the reason why audience going through film websites.
