Following our research on film websites, we decided to go with the aesthetic of the 'Moonlight' website, as well as having cool effects like the Inception website. Our website forms the 3rd and final part of our production package.
It was important that our trailer play immediately after opening our website, much like the Inception one, so that visitors won't have to click around for the trailer to play.
In the background of the home page, there's a 30-second mini-video we edited, which include different scenes that we didn't use in our final trailer. Then we used our VHS style glitch over it to keep the background the same as our teaser trailer.
The title, much like Moonlight's website, takes up the centre of the page, with the same neon-blue font we used in our trailer. Additionally, we decided to change the default font in Wix, to a font that looks visually similar to ours for our Home, About and Contact pages.
Our Tagline: 'Everyone has a crazy side' sits directly underneath the title, and is the same colour as the tagline seen at the top of our poster.
Our 30 second video also had sound, and we manually added the VHS sounds manually by converting our mini video into mp3 and adding it as a widget that can be turned off and on.
When you scroll down, there's a reel of 3 movie reviewers, which also appear in our trailer. We used the visually similar font in neon blue and white, in keeping with the colour scheme of our trailer and poster.
Most film websites that we researched also had their film poster(s) available, so further down the home page, we decided to place our poster in the centre, leaving small grey borders on the sides. This is separated by an animated clip of water moving. This was part of the default clips on Wix, but we felt like it suited our trailer, since the Waterfront location features a lot in it.
At the very bottom of the page, we've written about all our production. who was in charge of what, and left our contact details (email, a fake phone number) to our website.
On a separate 'About' page, we've written a shot synopsis about our film and what it's about, using the same font that is on our main home page, to keep our promotional package the same.
