Reelstar is a directory for actors and presenters displaying portfolios of their showreels, credits and photos.
The homepage needs to look slicker.
HOMEPAGE www.reelstar.tv
1) Remove search box.
2) Remove carousel and insert Estro Slider. The carousel can be disabled from within the Theme settings but I think all the carousel code should just be deleted from the home.php file in order to paste in the code from the Estro slider. Here is a preview of the Estro slider – http://codecanyon.net/item/estro-jquery-ken-burns-slider-wordpress-plugin/full_screen_preview/356713
3) Change Navigation bar to something modern. At the moment it looks very outdated. It needs to look slick and professional.
4) “Latest Reels” text needs to be the same as the other text.
5) Color scheme for the home page should be white with some blue. Perhaps some of the text should be blue.
6) Add Facebook and Twitter icons
7) Add a nice and simple little search-box into the sidebar
8) Improve the logo. I love the font but at the moment the logo is just not right, not professional enough.
USER PAGE
You will essentially be creating me a new page template which I can use for my Clients.
Use the page in this link and adapt – http://www.reelstar.tv/christinaricci/
1) It needs to be formatted into boxed sections
The first box should be split into 2 to contain the Head-shot photo and Stats text on the left, and Contact and Links text on the right.
2) The next boxed section below contains the video which will be an image. When clicked the video will appear in a pop up lightbox. I would like to use a different lightbox than on the homepage, something black with rounded corners would be nice.
3) The next boxed section below is for the Credits text.
4) I think the Photo Gallery is best located in the sidebar, its a good use of space. The lightbox the images are opening up in at the moment is not adequate. Perhaps use Fancybox.
5) I want to be able to use a photo as the background of the user-page so that every user’s page would be unique in that they could use a photo from their own showreel or a nice promotional shot; it would add a lot of variety to the website.
“NEWS” and “EVENTS” PAGES
The posts listed on these pages/ categories need to be listed in a standard linear order. So the pic thumbnail would be on the left and the text description on the right, and the next post would be below, so graphically instead of being as it is now –
PIC*********** PIC*********** PIC***********

BLOG
I need a typical blog on this page. At the moment it has decided to put all posts in the blog automatically, but I want control over what goes in, i.e. I want the ability to take the best content and put it in the blog rather than all posts in their entirety.
“CONTACT” PAGE & “ABOUT” PAGE
I would like these pages to look better, less boring.
PLUG-INS
Set “WP Super Cache” plug-in up to its optimal potential
Set “EZPZ One Click Backup” plug-in up to its optimal potential
Well that’s it. I look forward to your bids. If you have any questions please ask.
Thanks.
