Point 32: Weebly or Wix?

-
We got asked, if we chose Weebly or Wix to built our artist website and to explain why we chose the website builder over the other.

For my music Artist I used Wix. The reason for that is because I was already a bit familiar with the platform as I created several websites on it when I was new to media. So, it was simple for me to use it, even though there is still stuff that is new to me. It is fun exploring and going deeper into a platform you already used and finding so much more to learn. 
In the end, I know that Wix is easier to get a specific vibe across and through the screen, but is also more difficult to make everything perfect and fitting. 
One important thing that I noticed about Wix however, is that they often do not have the fonts that I use in - for example - the logo or the Single Cover, but also the merchandise fonts. For this reason I use familiar fonts and create a rather clean look.

*NEW* Point 7: Things to consider - what I want to include

-

 We got introduced to "Things to consider"  a few lessons ago and now we have to think about what three points we want to include in our music video.  In today's lesson, we talked about Enigma , which basically means that a lot of questions are open. For example David Guetta feat. Sia "Titanium": What happened at school? Where were his parents? and so on. Or, in other words: the whole music video is a mystery. Many unanswered questions, and maybe even do not make sense to some, but also leave a big space for the viewer's imagination. Example: The next thing to consider, that I want or need to include, is lighting. Lighting is going to be the main key to settling the mood for the music video and keeping the vocal point in focus. Lighting helps a lot to concentrate on the main part of a clip or scene and, like I said before, it can change the emotions throughout the scenes. A good example of that is Billie Eilish's "lovely" and "bad guy...

Point 6: Past videos from The Killers

  Three videos and why I like them I researched the Artist "The Killers" and watched a few music videos from the past. For this task I am going to chose three videos that I like and state why they caught my interest.  The Killers - Human The reason why I like the music video for "Human" so much, is because they never left the colour scheme they went for. It was all gold, yellow-ish with black and white. Furthermore, I like the idea of putting short films about different animals in the video. It gives of a brave vibe.  The Killers - Smile like you mean it Another music video that I really like. It is especially the editing and camerawork that has caught my attention. The camera work makes it feel like a little movie, while the editing gives off a kind of supernatural style. Eventhough the editing does not really change throughout the video, they kept it interesting by making it messy and going wild with it, trying new things. The Killers - When you were young T...
