- The purpose of my wix website is to give my audience a little bit of insight on my interests and the people in my life that have made me who I am today. I hope that my readers enjoy how the site looks and how it reads, and I hope they can take away a few things about myself. I want my audience to know that I am very family-oriented and I care a lot about being creative and finding comedy in life.
- This process was a very nice change in pace from the rhetorical analysis paper we wrote. I loved being able to create a visual that I felt suited my personality and enhanced my website as a whole. It was easier to accomplish because I was more motivated to make everything look how I wanted it to. Traditional essays can sometimes be so boring, so I’m glad we were able to do something like creating a website.
- I really just wanted to make my website look clean and simple, but aesthetically pleasing. I chose the pictures that I thought told the story of my life the best; the pictures that suited my personality. I wanted to choose pictures and videos that make me feel something, mainly great nostalgia. I love how some of the film photos look, especially the ones of my parents. Mainly, I just want my audience to be able to feel something as well, hopefully joy.
- The layout of my website was simple. I wanted to make something bold, yet laid-back because that’s what suits my personality best. My most important task in making the website was giving my audience something simple and nice to look at. I didn’t want to be gimmicky, I just wanted my pictures and excerpts to be the main focus.
- I hope I achieved a voice through my website that creates and one on one relationship with my audience. I want to be a friend telling the things I think are worth telling about myself. Sometimes it gets personal. At the same time, I kept my stories pretty brief, so I can interest my audience in potentially wanting to read more. I wouldn’t want to read something greatly personal in someone’s photo essay in this format. Ultimately, I hope my audience is able to be happy when reading my writing pieces.

I really liked the simplicity in which this page was organized. The way in which you talked about each of the ways your friends impacted your life was super touching and loved seeing that. I’m so sorry about your loss but I’m glad he had you in his life and you wrote him a beautiful tribute.

I completely agree that this project was so different because of its creativity elements. My website was also aimed to be simple so that the viewers can focus on the content. It’s so cool that you used original film photos! You definitely created a one-on-one relationship with the viewer.
