Some research research into similar textsis included and is reasonably thorough. Some research into audience has been done. Some good drafting has been included. The web pages feature some very good elements, but too much is irrelevant. It is also a shame that certain parts are not accurate. The evaluation is a little too basic and needs to contain more analysis and detail.

EVALUATION

In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?

• The Website has a really big welcoming which stands out well with a nice title saying The Victoria College. It has one main image which takes up most of the homepage, the images have been edited using auto-level on photoshop to make them of better quality and look more interesting. It includes links to the things featured in on the website.If I where to change anything I would have made the title font a lot bigger and bolder and I would used a different font because the font I used was rather plain and boring.
  

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

• My Website represents Victoria College and the students within the College, this is done by having photos of the college on the website and photos of the students. Also the website tells you about the College. It represents more upper class people because the College is very posh and it is expensive to go to.The class of the group is higher class ABC1. 
  

What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?

• Victoria College would tell people about my website as its a Victoria College website so the people that would be looking at it and viewing it would be people associated with Victoria College or people who want to find out about the college, for example up-coming,present,new and old students and parents of students and teachers would want to visit the website.
  

Who would be the audience for your media product?

• The audience for my website would be up-coming students to the college, students already at the College and parents of the students and the staff at the College, so there will be a wide range of features on the website to view as it is a big mixed audience.
  

How did you attract/address your audience?

• I used a big welcoming at the top of the homepage with a big photo of the college. The photo would capture people's eyes.I also used links so the people who want to find out more about whats happening at the college can. The welcoming connects with the person reading it and says they can get envoled with the college.
  

What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?

• I learnt how to use photoshop to crop and enhancing my photos making them look better and be of better quality.I also learnt how to use www.weebly.com and make a website using different layout and techniques.
  

THE POLL RESULTS I NEEDED

I used three small polls to find out the answers to these questions:

What shall the website be called?

100% of people voted that it should be called Victoria College Website

What is the most important link to be on the site?

100% of people voted that a link about up-coming events should be on the website

What should be on the media page?

100% of people said both photos and videos should be put on the media page

I used these result to help me make my website be the best it could. Also it was a good and easy way to find out what the people actually wanted themselves.

THE ORIGINAL LAYOUT PLAN

Below is what I originally wanted my layout to look like. I planned it out before I made the website using paint.

FINISHING IT OFF

Lastly I added some photos and uploaded other things that were needed.I then tidyed it up to make it look as good as possible, so it would be able to catch the viewers eye.
