# Third Planet Studio Website Improvements Proposal 1) Optimise all images - low effort : high impact - could be done with existing design - Use a tool like [ImageOptim](imageoptim.com/) to reduce the size of all images on the site. This will drastically improve the speed of the site and reduce the amount of data used by visitors (especially important for mobile users). - this is is a relatively quick win that will have a big impact for users. The artists pages are particularly bloated in terms of file size. 2) Responsiveness - med effort : high impact - Could be done with existing design but would need some code changes - make the site look & function as desired on all devices. - The site a) doesn't look good on mobile and b) doesn't function well on mobile. A large % of your users will be on mobile - Image optimisation will also be a huge help in making the site more mobile friendly. 3) Remove the splash screen - medium effort : med impact - some additional design & coding work would be required - The splash screen is a nice idea, but it's really just a barrier to your content. I'd recommend removing it and instead have a impactful hero section with animation or a spotlight for featured artists or services. 4) Showcase Artists & Musicians - high effort : high impact - would be part of a larger re-design & build of the site - The current `Musicians` & `Artists` pages would get a full revamp. These would be pages that showcase all artists that have worked with Third Planet. It would be a page that would get updated regularly with new artists and we'd highlight this page / certain artists from the landing page. 5) Content Management System - med effort : med impact - would be part of a larger re-design & build of the site - The site could be built on a CMS like [Sanity.io](https://sanity.io/) or [Ghost](https://ghost.org/). This would allow you to easily update the site yourself and add new content without having to rely on a developer for every update. 6) 3D / Effects - high effort : high impact - would be part of a larger re-design & build of the site - The site could incorporate a 3D framework like [Three.js](https://threejs.org/). This would allow for some really cool effects and animations that would make the site really stand out from the crowd. With regards to cost, I'd be happy to work with you on a fixed price for the work. I'd also be happy to work on a retainer basis if you'd like to have me on hand to help with any future updates to the site. I am not sure if you have the budget for all of this work, but I'd be happy to work with you to prioritise and get the most impact for your budget. Alternatively, your son could do some of the work and I could help him out with the more technical aspects.
