the first draft of website.

I started making website seveal weeks before, and today I'd like to show the first draft of my website and also I would like to talk about what I may change or do to get the best website that I could do.

 This is the front page of our website. As we think about we could add a bottom which could change the language, at the start, I use English title. at header, I put on some social media which is familier to most of people in the world, especially people who is not Chinese (this is because some social media that shown in the header are blocked in China). But also, I have put on a Wechat, which is a really common social media that most of the Chinese people, almost all of them would have an account in Wechat. The reason that I put it is because our primary target audience is Chinese people, using Wechat would make the advertisement and distribution easier. For the front page, I made a video which is just like a moving gallery of the photos that we took in China. However, as we now focus more on Chinese student's school life in foreign country, I think I might change the front page. There are two way that Melissa and I decided to do: one way is to use only a picture which is taken in our school in the UK and the main character is shown in the picture; Another way is still I make a video which I put plenty of footages of Chinese students in our school that we have taken recently, which looks quite similar like this one.

Also, we used to think about to make a trailer for our documentary, so I have created a bottom just under the title that people could click it to go to the 'trailer' page to watch our trailer. However, now as we don't really think we have time to make a trailer, now I am thinking about to get rid of it and put on the date that we will release our documentary.
 This is the information part. Here I didn't put on the information right there, I put a repeater and split our information into three part. As our documentary relates to education, we decide to give some information of both Chinese education system and UK's education system (as we are now studying in UK). This could give both our primary and secondary audience, Chinese people and foreign country people some information of these two really different types of education system. In the middle, it is more information of our documentary. All these three parts would go to another page - "information"
 Here I might put a picture, but because when I started making website, during that time, the footages that we got are too few, I still not really sure what picture that I would like to put here.
 This is the discussion part, which is my idea that to get the audience more involve to our campaign, I think to get a discussion that people could leave comments about their ideas of study abroad and students who study abroad would achieve it as they could express their idea and communicate with others. After asking teacher(sorry but I fogot his name), I decide to use Wix Forum in another page "discussion" (which is particularly used for discussion). Wix Forum is the app that could build up an online community, and I think this is what I want.
 And here is the Gallery page. I think we will not add any extra page for Gallery because those pictures we think are already enough. And after getting more photos and footages, I think I will start putting on some footages.
And finally, this is the contact part. Here I just make it quite simple, but I think I might put something more, such as, the QR code which is quite common in China, and the Wechat of us and we may create a Wechat just for our documentary and we could put in here.

In addition, you could see that I didn't change the colour of the background or adding any images. This is because now we are still thinking about our whole branding colour palettes, and I will add the background colour after we decide the colour.
