Website

Progress Update: 08/02/24
I've utilised Wix's hoverbox feature in order to hide certain details unless you specifically hover your mouse over it. For example, the red "They lied" in the first set of images and the red "Really!?" in the second set of images. I feel that this captures the essence of an Indie Band to do things differently, as well as weaving the intended negative narrative towards the Conservatives into my website product.

Statement of Intent

06/09/23 L/O: to produce a concise and well-structured statement of intent for chosen brief Music Video With the music video, I intend to represent the class divide in favour of those who are less fortunate.
