Warner Bros. is a mul2faceted media conglomerate known for its diverse entertainment
offerings, spanning feature films, television, anima2ons, digital distribu2on, video games, and
more. Its subsidiaries include Warner Bros. Pictures, Warner Bros. Interac2ve Entertainment,
Warner Bros. Television, Warner Bros. Anima2on, and others. The company's current website,
hosted at h-ps://www.warnerbros.com serves as a hub for movie trailers, news, classic clips, TV
series, and video games. Addi2onally, it operates an online store offering a wide range of
products, from movies to clothing, toys, home décor, and collec2bles.
As part of an ini2a2ve to stay at the forefront of technology and web presence, Warner Bros. is
undergoing a redesign and redevelopment of its website. Key features of the redesign include
adherence to W3C standards, u/liza/on of HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and Bootstrap,
compa/bility with various browsers and devices, and a focus on mul2media content and page
uniformity.
The revamped website will consist of at least five main pages: the index page, movies page, TV
shows page, games & apps page, collec2ons page, and a feedback page with an HTML form. Each
of the pages dedicated to movies, TV shows, and games will feature informa2on about at least
one item from the respec2ve category.
Crea2vity will be emphasized throughout the redesign process to ensure the website appeals to
Warner Bros.'s target audience. This will involve the use of compelling graphics, imagery, and
banners created with tools like GIMP to engage visitors and enhance their browsing experience.
1. Informa/on Design and Taxonomy: The first step in the development process involves
organizing the content and structuring the informa2on architecture of the website. This includes
categorizing the content into logical groups and determining how it will be interconnected.
a. Site Map Design: A visual representa2on of the website's structure, the site map outlines
the hierarchy of pages and how they are linked together. It serves as a blueprint for the
website's naviga2on and content organiza2on.
Example Site Map:
- Home
- Index Page
- Movies
- Individual Movie Pages
- TV Shows
- Individual TV Show Pages
- Games & Apps
- Individual Game/App Pages
- Collec/ons
- Feedback
2. Graphics Design and Page Template Crea/on: Once the informa2on architecture is
established, the next step is to design the look and feel of the website. This involves crea2ng
wireframes and visually designing page templates.
a. Wireframes: Basic layouts of each page, wireframes outline the structure and placement
of elements such as naviga2on menus, content sec2ons, and mul2media objects. Use the
Figma tool to design the website Wireframes.
b. Visual Designs: of each page, page templates incorporate branding elements, colour
schemes, typography, and imagery to create a cohesive and visually appealing interface
using graphics sodware like GIMP.

3. Technical Brief:
With the design approved, the website is built using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript and Bootstrap.
HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, and Bootstrap are fundamental technologies used in website
development. HTML5 provides the structure, CSS3 handles styling, and JavaScript adds
interac2vity. The Bootstrap framework simplifies development by offering pre-designed
components like naviga2on bars, bu-ons, and more. To improve your website, incorporate
Bootstrap to control elements such as naviga/on bars, bueons, tables, cards, and carousels.
Bootstrap ensures consistency and responsiveness across different devices. Document your
usage of Bootstrap as part of the comments to demonstrate understanding and customiza2on.
4. Quality Assurance: Before the launch, the website undergoes rigorous tes2ng to ensure
func2onality and compa2bility across various browsers and devices.
5. Cross-Browser Compa/bility Tes/ng: Tes2ng the website on different browsers (e.g., Chrome,
Firefox, Safari) to iden2fy and resolve any compa2bility issues.
6. Publishing & Promotion: The website will be hosted using appropriate hos2ng services, and
tools like GitHub will be u2lized for version control and deployment. GitHub Pages will be used
for hos2ng the website. Do not forget to include the link to your website on your Documenta2on.
