When you navigate around my website you see things that I like and take interest in, I think that anyone visiting this website can easily see and learn about what kind of a person I am because there are images of my favourite sport, and things that i like doing in my free time. On the home page there are pictures of golf which I enjoy, and there is a 'find out more about me' button and it takes you to the about me page where there are images of Xbox One controllers and pictures of Spain.
I have chosen a San Serif font to make the website look smart, I've chosen black and white as the colours because I think it stands out more and makes the text and navigation a lot easier to read and access. what I also like is that for the background of each page title there is a scenic picture of Spain which I took when I went there on holiday. The black and white San Serif fonts relate to first two portfolios that I researched on LO1, personally I prefer the San Serif font to the serif font because it looks more modern. I was inspired by Matt Harney's website because of the basic navigation which I like because it makes it easier to find things, I take interest in landscape photography and the trees, grass and other vegetation give of a nice calm effect which I think makes the website more interesting. I was inspired by the layout and theme of Matt Harney's website because its simplistic and there's not loads and loads of things happening as soon as you click on the website. I kept my website quite simple because when I looked at the Thomas Studios website, images of Martin Parr's work appeared on the screen and personally I thought that it was quite messy and I didn't really like that and I went with a more professional look similar to Matt Harney's website. I've kept my website simple and easy to navigate because from personal experience on other sites I've found it hard to find things that I'm looking for so on my site I've made it easier to find things and also it makes it easier for clients to find specific information quicker and the easy navigation makes it more unique and professional |

Firstly I have noticed a lack in detail so more detail would be appreciated however the work does improve in some areas. The reasoning could be more specific and the images of Spain could potentially confuse people because the theme of Spain could connote that he is based in Spain. The language is quite informal

since we started i have tried to become more creative with the way i layout text and images on my website because if you look at the screen grab you will notice that it looks a lot different to the first unit because there is more images and there is a lot more detail in my work. the work you see in the screen grab was completed by a group member as it was their task but i have made the work look professional by laying it out in a unique style to make it look more interesting. since the start i personally feel i have become better at using Weebly because i find it easier to layout my work in different ways i can include more videos and images in my work to make it look more interesting and it helps to make the website look less boring and more professional looking. overall i have found the course interesting as i have learned how to use premiere pro and audition which has been helpful because when i use them i understand how to use them and the editing becomes a lot more simple and esy to use.i now understand weebly and i can show my work in unique ways. i have now learned how to analyse a photo or YouTube video properly and that has helped me to answer questions and input more detail into my work which means i can complete a research task to a better standard and it means that the questions will be answered properly.
