Contest Brief

Hi there, I am looking for a homepage design for my new website.

I am a model hailing from Sydney, who features in magazines, advertisements, and television commercials.
I additionally do a lot of radio and TV work, and occasionally theatre, voice overs, music clips and short films.

I want to put together a classy, professional looking website.

The website will NOT use Adobe Flash, we will use javascript to make it dynamic

This contest is for TWO pages: the home page and the photos page styling.

I want the front page static to be a cross between

http://larabingle.com.au/
http://www.hilaryrhoda.com/
http://henrykphoto.com/index.php#/recent-work/katie1
http://www.juliastegner.com/photography/covers/

The front page should contain an area for a few paragraphs of text so the site can be SEOd well

It will have a menu like Lara's website (above) with about six options

Biography
Fashion/Beauty
Television/Film
Press
Contact

HOMEPAGE

The front page image I want used of myself is attached. I want it simple like Lara Bingle's, but in colour.
My name is "Justine Selby" which should feature prominently.

PHOTO PAGE

I would like the photo carousel (which is not on the homepage) to be like the henryk link above

but with larger thumbnails (the size of Julia Stegner)
See http://www.hilaryrhoda.com/
http://www.juliastegner.com/photography/covers/

I would like the hero image on this page to be large

For this mockup just can you use the thumbs/hero images for the photo page to be from one of these sites.

Thanks! I look forward to seeing your work. Please submit two good resolution static images.

Justine xx

    are you saying that are only three competitors left -- totally wrong to make it public then I was about to submit but further reading but it seems it is only for the privileged three.

    Its suspicious how all of their design are very similar
    I think everyone has been had

      I think your opinions should be kept to yourself. It was open to everyone, no one has been \"had\". How rude of you to suggest that.

      Again i deleted it already sorry as i forgot i posted it as a mock up design as it is, im flattered as well, you ask designs for all of us. Get our ideas and did not bother commenting? what the? in fact you extended 3 days a while ago with your top designs and you tell the designers to add our design? think for a second Ms. Justine. it is unjust. clear mind blowing excuse to waste the time of other people and still their ideas without getting any in return. It does flatter :D

      Flattered is a nice word, you've interpreted my comment incorrectly.
      This was a competition, if you're going to be in them you have to be prepared to be rejected.
      I wish you luck.

    Hi datagrabbers, xexexdesign, WebofPixels. We are getting close. I like the background silver and right hand side of #313 (xexexdesign). But I don't like how there is a filter to me so I look orange and my hair isn't cut properly. I like how #323 (WebOfPixels) has done my image the best, the colour tones and the hair. Also #328 (datagrabbers) did me OK. The typography of my name and kerning is best in #313 (xexex). But I look stretched in #313 which I do not like. I need the image of me to be pretty much EXACTLY has provided, no filters, no changing of my aspect ratio etc. However I do think the background colour of silver is more classy than the brown.

    WebofPixels #182 try the whole picture in the background as you have done in the first page.
    xexexdesign #287 try putting an image in the background and include a contents page. and 286 put less text please.
    datagrabbers and everyone try making two versions of the front page 1 with all the writing white and 1 with all the writing black. As I've has mixed feedback about the writing, thanks.

    That's it for now, thanks!

    Hey :) So I'm uploading the final ones you guys did that I really like and will comment on them publicly. I think one thing that has to be 100% is my hair- not any of the little strands cut out or changed in anyway... maybe crop completely around the hair. As I really like the way the stylist made it! :)

    Hey datagrabbers, WebofPixels, & xexexdesign I've extended the contest by 3 days but only to you 3 as your designs were the best (of my taste). I'm not 100% at where I want to be with the site just yet (hence the extension). I'll be back in one hour to list my edits. Thanks so much!

    Everyone else, thank you ALL so much for your help along the way:)

    I think #86 would look best with a silver background on the 2nd page (background to the row of pics and feature pic). #85 My name and the contents column would look better bolder/ more prominent.
    #87 just take out the row of pics as it is only to be on the 2nd page (not 1st) and put in a block of text (I will later finalise that actual words). Also have the graphic go to the edge of the screen (not cropped or bordered). The heading & contents could be a bit clearer also.
    #75 same thing about the boarder. And put in text...
    125 & 123 I really like the 2nd page, you've both done as specified in the brief.

    Most of you have either used a strong font or a running writing font. It's hard to decide which is best as they're great for different reasons. That won't influence the final decision as it can be changed.
