Website Proposal


For each assignment we take on, we have to create a proposal, which is there for us to use as a springboard for an initial idea, helping us develop that into our final outcome...

Name: Michael Colebourne

Title: Personal Website Design

Project Proposal:

In the outcome of this brief I would like to achieve a website that is suitable to showcase my work to the general public and future clients but also one that would catch the eye of the art world.

Self-promotion through Facebook is something that has been helping me to get my name known locally to me in the past 12-18 months. This brief is one I have been looking forward to since I started university and I’m going to use the tutorials to my full advantage. After all, this website will ultimately be my career advertising board.

Aims and Objectives:

·         To create a website suitable to show my work to all future clients
·         To have a website that has ease of use for all levels of users
·         To have a website that holds my portfolio with easy accessibility
·         To have a website that I can interact with my clients with ease

Target Audience:

My website would ideally be aimed at any suitable future employer(s), with easy contact points to reach me.
Also I’d like to keep my website open to all viewers, without shutting any audiences out by being too formal or ‘arty’.

Web References:

http://www.dannyst.com/ : This website is one I came across during my research. I like all aspects of this site, the ease of use, the layout, the navigation and the work itself. The images are presented in good sizes and good quality.  It includes a good use of his personal things like news and social media links.

http://www.mattstuart.com/ : I like the simplicity of this site but I don’t feel as connected to the photographer himself. Poor use of size, for the size of the screen I viewed it on I feel he could of made more use of the space he had available.

http://www.vivianmaier.com/ : I found this site uses good sized images with a good layout. Offering plenty of information about the artist. I think the blandness of the site is something what lets it down.
