Research

In our film, we discover that people have been going missing from Cardiff and we thought that we could create a missing persons website to tie in with our film.

We firstly researched missing person websites to see what type of information they contained and the layout they had.

 

When researching these websites I discovered the layout of missing person profiles, I liked this layout of pictures, as people can easily scroll through and see if they recognise anyone. Then when clicked on it takes you to another page where you can see more information about that person. This basic layout will be easy to create and as it’s simple it’s easy to use and is very effective. We will use this layout and information in order to create our own missing people profiles.

 

I also looked at their About and Contact pages, this way we can see what type of information they relay and how they go about the subject of missing people. Each website I looked at had a helpline and an email of some sorts. Through this email people could report people missing, give information or report themselves as missing. There were also help pages giving people advice on how to deal with family members being missing I thought that this was important to include as it makes the website look professional and like a real charity site.
