Website: Final draft

This is the final draft of our website for 'Coulrophobia'

  • Background image: Original for the background image on the website we used a screenshot of the clown from our footage, however we decided to go for a more professional look and therefore took some stills using the clown outfit we used in our trailer. We decided to use this image for our website and poster in order to create a well known image for our film and to link them all together nicely.
  • Font: We decided to use the same font that we have used in our teaser trailer and poster in order to create a recognisable font for a film, we chose this font as we felt it fitted with the genre of our film and the crosses through the O's indicate death. We have placed the title on the right hand side of the web page as here it doesn't take away too much from the image of the clown.
  • Our trailer plays automatically when you enter our website, we did this to show the visitor what the film is about before the explore the rest of our website, this also seems to be a common feature of horror movie websites which inspired us to do it.
  •  


  • The tabs we have chosen are 'Home', 'About', 'Trailer', 'Gallery' and 'Cast and Crew' we chose these as they seem to be a convention of a horror movie website as we have seen similar tabs on websites we have researched which are of a similar genre to our film.
  • We have also included links to Coulrophobias Facebook, Twitter and YouTube channel along the top bar of our website. We decided to do this as it has appeared successful for other horror films and can act as free promotion of our film as visitors of our website can follow/like us and share it with their friends.  
As we only had to create the homepage for our website when you clicked on the tabs to go to another page it says 'Page under construction' (as shown below) However for the 'Gallery' page we added some screen shots of our film in order to make the website look more authentictic.
