Planning; Original artist's website

The original artist of our song is Marina and The Diamonds, diamonds being her fans, not her band. This means she is widely about making music for her fans, not for the fame.
This is her homepage;

 

 When you first see her homepage, you are greeted with a bunch of links which lead to different things. Marina's fans, or diamonds as she calls them, can look at various things to do on her website. From finding new things about her and her album, buying things from her store (album, clothes, tours) and recent photos, etc.

 

 These are a bunch social networking sites links so that her fans can reach her in multiple ways and therefore promote themselves even more. As you can see, Marina has Twitter links, Facebook (with how many likes she has) and many others - her YouTube account, SoundCloud page and Tumblr.

Also on the side, there are information about Marina's tour and shows and what she has in her store.

 

Marina frequently updates her blog on her website to keep up to date with her fans. This is a good way of letting them know if she has any new music up, any new tour dates or album updates.

 

 Fans can sign up to her website so they can get updates on the second. They can join in competitions, talk to other fans and order things from the store. 

I signed up to her fan site for our project, to ask her fans question about our music video and what they would like to see. They kindly replied and told me what they would like to see in the video;

 

There is a link called "Launch Music Player" which opens up a new window which consists of Marina's new and old music. Fans, or other people visiting her website, can discover her new - or old- music, which then increases the popularity of the artist.
