FEATURE: SUPER FURRY ANIMALS Visit the Super Furry Animals website
I was responsible for developing the Super Furry Animals website. The website contains information on all the band's releases, split into singles and albums, as well as galleries, videos, downloads and announcements via the news page.
The band's management (based in Cardiff) hold a unique roster of artists, many of whom are from Wales or have local roots. As such, many of the band's websites require bilingual functionality. I developed a bespoke content management system for inputting content in both English and Welsh. This template has since been used on several websites for Welsh businesses, artists and musicians.
WEB DESIGN
I am a multimedia web designer and can work with you to produce graphics for a range of digital formats - from full web design packages, cover artwork and logo design to advertisements, e-mail campaigns and virals.
I have worked on several high profile band and record label websites. I have a very good understanding of the principles behind web design for music driven websites, including the sale and delivery of MP3s online. Contact me for more information.
WEB DEVELOPMENT
Web development is the process by which your design drafts are turned into fully functioning, interactive websites. Good development ensures that your website meets with web standards and accessibility guidelines. This ensures that your target audience can see the website as you intended, whatever their web browser or operating system.
CONTENT MANAGEMENT
A Content Management System (CMS) is an application designed to let you create, edit and maintain data on your website.
I am able to produce bespoke systems tailored to your specific requirements, giving you the tools you need to manage your website easily and effectively. I can also work with popular open-source publishing tools such as WordPress and Drupal.
E-COMMERCE
The web is an ideal platform to sell your products. Whether they are tangible items such as works of art or virtual products like MP3s, I can help you get your business online. I can build custom store fronts and administration systems and can work with open-source applications like osCommerce, Magento and Ubercart.
SEO
Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) increases the number of visitors to your website by improving your website's page ranking in search results.
As search engines become more sophisticated, the focus is on producing content rich websites with clear navigation and good accessibility. I ensure that the websites I produce meet with search engine guidelines to maximise your website's potential.
