proposal

i want to design a website about cosplay. Cosplay, short for "costume play," is a hobby in which participants design, construct, and wear costumes of their favorite anime, video game, comic, film, television, or book characters.  i want to do this because of my personal interests. the website i want to design is not just about cosplay it will be about a cosplay group that i am part of in Plymouth.
for my website i will have to Analise a website that is similar to my idea for my website because there isn't an already existing website for the one i want to create.

analysis of diamond dust cosplay
this website has allot of pictures and information about the costumes and upcoming events. it tells us about the person that owns the website. it is helpful because it has a question and answer section which could help any people that are interested in this hobby. but unfortunately this website is only about one person. and also it doesn't have and tutorials or information that will help other cosplyers.

the design for this website isn't very creative. it does have pictures of the cosplays but i think that if it had brighter colours then it would be more interesting. this website does portray that it is about cosplay because of all the pictures i just think that they should change the colours and layout so it is a bit more interesting to look at. the only part of the logo that portrays cosplay is the word 'cosplay'

the deign for my group that i am making the website for does portray that it is about Plymouth cosplayers because it has the word 'plymouth cosplay' and another way in which it portrays what the group is about is because it has a picture of he Plymouth hoe on its logo.
overall it think that this website does portray what it is about but if i was to redesign this website i would chose a different layout so that the pictures are the first thing you see and also i would put a section in for tutorials or useful tips for other people i would also change the background colour and i might add a pattern onto the background to make it more interesting


the method of capture in this website  is the use of photograph. i am planing on using photography in my website as well. another type of capture i might use is filming and i will use writing as a form of capturing.

choosing this form of capture reflects my research because it shows that i have decided that photography would be the best way of capture for this topic i have decided to do a website about.

researching has proven to be very useful for the development of my ideas as before i did any research i did not have many ideas on what i could put on my website but after looking at other websites about the same thing it has shown me that i can put allot of things on for example i can put a page on my website about upcoming events and another page on the members etc. so yes this research has helped with the development of my ideas

things i could put on my website

  • question and answer - a page were people can ask questions
  • tutorials - tutorials on how we made our costumes
  • members - the members and their cosplays
  • upcoming events
  • what is cosplay - describes what cosplay is and what you have to do
