Website Production: Cast Page

Here is the first version of the cast page, with the usual woodland background edited into grey scale.

Here I've added photos of the characters of the film, this just gives the audience and idea of the faces they can expect to see in the film and is a typical convention of most film promotional websites.

Here I have added back stories and information about the cast and some information about why they were picked for their roles.

Website Production: Gallery Page

Here is the first version of the gallery page, I have chosen to create a gallery page as it is a convention seen on some film promotional websites and gives the audience and indication of the location and type of film, reinforcing the image in the head of the audience.

I have only included images of the location as I didn't want to give away too much of the story on the website and I have photos of the cast on another page with information about them.

Website Production: Info Page

Here is the first version of info page (this page provides information to the target audience about the theme and story of the film) once again I have chosen a woodland background with a grey scale effect to add to the theme of the film and it is also a typical convention of horror film websites to have the location as the background.

Here I've added in the back story for the film, this gives the audience a chance to read into the film and make a decision for themselves whether or not they like the direction the story is heading in, but doesn't give too much away that it ruins the film for them.

This gives the audience a chance at a negotiated reading as it allows them to decide for themselves whether or not they will go and see the film or whether they like the concept of it.

Website Production: Directors Page

Here is the first version of the directors page. As with all of the page on the website I have added a black and white distorted background image I have chosen to create a directors page is it is once again a typical convention of any film promotional website and it gives the audience an insight into how the film was produced and the people behind it, it can give them an impression of how this film would represent the horror genre.

In the second version I have added back stories for both of the directors and explained how they came up in the industry.

Here I've finalised the page by adding photos of both of the directors, this is simply because its is often a typical convention of any film promotional website and I decided that the best way to produce this website was to follow typical conventions.

Website Production: Home Page

Here is the homepage at the first stage of production, I have put the trailer here as the centre peice but there isn't much else to the page.

In this second version I have added endorsements from several external review critics, I have done this so that the audience are assured that this film is of a high standard and will encourage them to watch the trailer and hopefully be hooked in enough to go and see the film.

Here is the finalised version of the homepage. Since the last image I have added a background to it as it gives the audience an impression of the genre and the general themes in the film.

Website Production: Master Page

The master page for a website contains the information and images you want to be featured on all of the pages of the website.

Here is the first version, all I had done at this stage is created a navigation bar so that if the target audience chose to visit the website they would be able to navigate around its pages with ease.

Here is the second version, here I have added conventions such as directors names, producing company and the logo for the company, these are the typical features you would find on any film promotional website, I have decided that I want these to appear on all of the pages of the website as they give the website a more authentic and professional look.

Here is the final master page, I have added the title of the film as I want this to appear on every page of the site, to reinforce the branding of the film into the target audiences mind.
