Week 13-14

Webpage design. I’ll admit, I never thought we would even touch on something like this in an editing class, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense.

There are one websites that I’d like to talk about though.

The first one is the website of Volcom.

This is a Brand of boarding sports like skateboarding, snowboarding or surfing.

This website does such a great job of separating its materials by different kinds of swim wear, sportswear, or just normal clothes. Things are spaced out appropriately, but I think the thing that I like the most is that fact that their pictures and background really help to promote their brand.

This particular picture is a shot of a professional surfer wearing a Volcom brand swimming suit and it gives info on what the swimming is called and what professionals are doing with them, that they really do work. The shot is amazing and mesmerizing. I thought it was a great idea to add to a website.

The other aspect of the site that I like is that it is very simple to use. At the top, there are basic tabs that you can click on that will take you to a general destination of what you’re looking for, and it gets more specific as you go, to make the experience as efficient as possible. And, once you get tot eh bottom of the page, it gives you recommendations based off of public popularity, and off of things that you have looked at previously It’s a great site, and I love getting materials from them. They’ve got such a chill vibe going on that I like to be a part of.
