Wix Template Research

I looked at a range of templates on WIX website as this will be where I am creating my ancillary product of a website. The templates already have headers, footers and image spaces filled in. This means that production would be more efficient as certain conventions were already there to simply just be edited.

The urban Photography was the template I took the most inspiration . I liked the simplistic style and how it looks more image led than text based, which remind me slightly of the WHAT YOUTH website. I like the use of a photo gallery which has inspired me to use a pin-board effect on my home page. I also like the size of the images as the wideness of them makes it stand out to the viewers and directs the read straight to the image they like best where they can find out more information. I think it looks good to have social media links on the page as it allows people to keep up with updates on things they regularly use rather than constantly having to visit the website. I definitely will be having my masthead at the top of the website and when viewers scroll down the page it stays in the same position.

I like this website template because as I am having it more image led than text led. I also like how the images are linked too an Instagram account so when you move the mouse over the image it shows how many likes and comments it got on Instagram. The only downfall to this website template is that it is a little too plain and boring for my target audience and appears to be more appealing to and older generation due to how simple it is too navigate

I like the colour scheme and the style of writing that this website template uses, the pink background makes the black writing stand out, whereas the style of writing would appeal to a younger audience cause it is creative . I also like how the dominant image of the website takes up most of the website page but I don't like how it is just one dominant image and how it just focuses on one particular artist
