In order to produce a website about our chosen artist, we figured it would be a good idea to analyse the offical Vampire Weekend website in order to find out the various styles used (ie the format of the website, official band typography and images etc...) and also the content of the website (songs, videos, pictures, tour dates, merchandise among others) and just the general appearance of the website.
The opening page is a full-page image of the cover of their second album, 2009's Contra. This page includes links at the top to such website features as news, videos, pictures, merchandise which was to be expected. Something else that will have only recently come into the conventions of an official artist website are the links to social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook, which is also at the top of the page with the other links. The website also includes an email address and other contact information.
By following techniques used in the production of this website we hope to create our very own website. This site has given us many ideas and other things to think about, and hopefully we can use the influences of this page to help us produce a successful website of our own.
Due to current technical problems we have been unable to put up screen shots of the related web pages but will do so as soon as possible with further analysis.
