The WeekndThe previous slide features a labelled screenshot of “The Weeknd” main page from his website. The main page is bursting with vivid colours. The use of the colours black and red resemble something dark and deep but also provides a hint of love. The colours contrast well with what we know about the artist himself and the music that he produces. Without knowing the artist you would predict that they make either rap or hip hop music just from the colours and vivid imagery used. Also having the artists name in white on black background sells the artist much more as his name stands out and is in the biggest and boldest font on the page.

The primary data featured on the website is a pop up YouTube player. The player automatically plays the artists new video. Since the player does contains a black border it fits the colour scheme of the main page perfectly because then it does not look like a pop up at all but looks as if it was embedded into the website.
