Main Website breif
Main website brief
The main website for my media course will be a charity website. Jeremy Yan and I will be working as partners throughout, however we have not discussed the name as of yet. But what we do know that it will be based around helping children who suffer from ADHD (attention, defect, hyperactivity, disorder).
The website will contain eight pages and eight photographs, four pages and photos from me and four pages and photographs from Jeremy. The page will be the home page where the option bar will be located, some photos, links, and a description about ADHD and what the website does. The option bar will contain options such as; contact us, about us, donations, home, what we do and any other suitable things that we could add.
The home page will contain the charity title in bigger bolder writing than the other text on the page to make it stand out. I would also suggest that we add a helpline number on the home page as it would be conventional and will save time instead of navigating to find the number. Having consistent colours that match together around the website will be affective and it sends out a more organized view on the charity, not only this but when people see certain colours they sometimes think of an organization for example, green: NSPCC.

Finished School Website
Today I have finished my School website. I made a home page and a Media Studies Page.
Page layout
Page layout
My page layout has already been decided. I have gone for a really simple layout, which I found, was most popular in other school websites when doing the research. The navigation bar is at the top but below the logo and banner, and there are two vertical boxes each side of the page. In the middle of both vertical boxes is an introduction to the school ECT. The logo is at the top left with the school name next to it coming in more central. Photos will be added below as a banner. At the bottom of the page there is space for links such as newsletters or any other documents that are important to visitors to the website.
Photoshop, first art work
Photoshop, first art work
Today I chose a suitable logo for my school website, a Sardine. I thought a Sardine would be suitable as my School is called, ‘Sardine secondary school’. Originally the logo of the sardine was blue and contained some detail that I never wanted to have so I used Photoshop to overcome this problem. Using Photoshop I was able to cop out the parts that were not needed and change the fish from blue to orange as it looked more effective which was better for my website.

Setting up iWeb
Today I set up iWeb so that I could start making my preliminary website of a school. I started off by learning the basics so that I could build my knowledge before starting to use the more advanced parts of the programme. For my website I had created the simple layout to work on which will enables me to think about what sort of things I will add.
