Aukland Website (May 2015 Update)

Back in May 2015, the boys in Aukland asked if I could update their band's website to match the design of & help promote their newly-released debut album, "Rookie". This was a quick job, but a fun one nonetheless.

The original site designs can be found here: https://www.behance.net/gallery/22697027/Aukland-Website

Below you'll find the results of the update, along with some insights detailing how and why we decided to make these changes. Cheers!

The main things to update were the logo and the colour scheme. Of course, we had to keep the slick menu scroll transition and the neat background parallax effect!

In addition to these updates, the band also wanted to direct site visitors to a splash page featuring a stream of their new album, "Rookie". We decided to keep it simple and build exactly that. The splash page contains a SoundCloud stream of the album, front and centre, overlaid on top of a blurred background containing the album's artwork.

Other than that, the rest of the work on this job was making sure no styles were broken or looked out of place on any of the other pages, or on mobile.
