How am I planning to pull people in to
view my site and interact? To start with I am looking to attract audio industry
professionals. I honestly do not care who else views my site other than them.
As an audio professional there are three keys to attract us to anything.
First is new technology. As audio
professionals we are all suckers to the newest gadgets and software on the
market. Weather it is a new compressor plug-in, what’s hot in microphone
technology, or any new thing that makes our lives better, more efficient, or
our productions higher quality.
Next is competence. Audio professionals
want to see my work and know that I am capable to deliver a high quality
product in a reasonable timeframe. We most definitely value quality over
quantity. Also it’s the little details that count. Audio is all about the
subtle things. Adding extra foley to make a project pop and come alive. These
are qualities audio professionals look for and I want to demonstrate in my demo
and gallery.
Finally, no bullshit. This may sound
humorous but it is very true. As audio professionals we don’t have any time to
waste on frivolous endeavors or ideas. Therefore I am attempting to build my
website to be to the point, easy to navigate, and no nonsense. I want my
visitors to be able to access any information they require quickly and
efficiently with very little effort. Cluttering my site with social media is
going to be a big turn-off for most audio professionals. They don’t care about
what I say on twitter or facebook. They simply want to see my skills and
determine weather I am a good match for what they need.
So in conclusion I am aiming to make my
website easy and simple. My site will be a striped down approach where all
information is easily accessed and there are few distractions and clutter on my
page.
