Creating the Website

     Today, we had to create a website to market our film. I started off with wix.com to create the site because it's free with many options to choose from. I created a new email to use specifically for our film. I didn't want to put any personal information out there as the contact for our film. The email was the name of the movie because most professional films have one dedicated for that specific film. I filled out the information on the site to get started with out business. We chose film to be our main purpose for the website. We then proceeded to chose a layout for the website. They originally gave us 6 options to from. We were aiming for something more simplistic so our info stood out the most. As we finished with the main format of the site, the website was finally official. It was exciting to see the site up, especially because I never done anything as professional before. We mainly explored how to edit and the different customizations the site had. We tested out different formats and colors to see which one looked the best. We added sub-categories to separate the different information that was required on the site. Wix already had subtitles for these categories which included cast and crew, reviews, trailers and etc. Having these formats out was very helpful in suggesting of what else we could add onto the website. We also could create out own subtitles and add photos and captions to it. We mainly just wanted to put the film description on the site. We also reached out to our participants for their photos to put onto the site.
