Project 3 - iPad Welcome Pages


For our third projects, we're doing iPad Welcome Pages instead of doing websites as was originally declared. In order to do this, we're picking a company that sells a product and we're making five different welcome pages, each one representing a mood or concept.

I have chosen CD Baby (www.cdbaby.com), an independent music reseller.

I am going to do a theme for each of five genres/moods: Grunge, Indie Romance, Retro, Metal, and Country.

For Grunge, I'm going to use a lot of black, grey, and brown with a splash of yellow for emphasis. This will show the dark, dirty, and gritty feeling of grunge music.

For Indie Romance, I'm going to use blues, pinks, and white to simulate the hand-drawn atmosphere of Independent Romance movies.

For Retro, I'm going to use the bright orange and greens of the psychedelic 1970s.

For Metal, I want to give the dark religious look of the death cult. I will be using a lot of dark colors to represent the darkness, dark reds for blood, and metallic colors for metal.

For country, I will use a mix of blue, green, and brown, the most common colors found in the country.
