Website Icons

To make the website easy to navigate through for the user I have decided to design and create an icon to represent each of the pages.

 

Research has been done looking at various existing website icons and seeing which styles, colours and graphics work best.

From looking at various icons I have come to the conclusion that rounded icons work best as they look more friendly and welcoming. Also I am thinking about adding a flash animation to the icons to make the website more appealing and this would work better if the icons were rounded instead of square.

I like the depth that has been added onto the top left icons with the help of a shadow. This would work with the posters as depth and perspective has been added to them and it would be good to carry this through to the website.

The actual graphics for the icons needs to bold and easy to understand but also relate to film some way.
