Vice a Digital Editorial Website
Vice is one of those providers that usually answers the questions that we might think of but have never bothered figuring out for ourselves. At least that’s how I look at it. Some Content that is provided can be opinionated but providing one’s output on life can also be good to reflect on but in saying this I always find Vice to have relevant content.
Vice provides: Articles, Photos as well as Videos about..
Events occurring around the world/world issues
Because vice provides different sectors within its platform as mentioned above each sector provides a slightly different approach in regards to Design.
Whether it is video, image or article the approach for each section still remains the same, the Design only changes slightly on different subject/source.
Examples of Subject in relation to source ( different sources work with in Vice)
Events occurring around the world/world issues - Vice News / Motherboard
Vice in general is very eligible. Grids and Guides are used to help the audience to focus what is more important at hand .. The Content Provided. A very Clean & Bold approach which can be seen in the De Stijl Period. The amount of positive space is satisfying, providing the idea of rich content, provided that images used are expressive as well as Properly cropped and Placed upon the page.
Typography ‘San Serif’ as well as Bold which compliments the rest of the Page.
In regards to colour the website alone provides little to non as it provides Black in a few shades lighter & white. Colour is supplied through the visuals (Photos&Videos)
Subject Page remains consistent within design
Source Page - Example 1. Noisy
As for the design/layout of the source pages always differ ever so slighty from each other, but yet are still different. Which may, not be ethereally too bad as it gives an opportunity to experience a different visual journey.
But never the less the source even though related and part of Vice is actually a completely different website.
Source Page - Example 2. Thump
This difference can be seen between 2 different sources as provided above. Example 1 provides a bold approach Within its article, Good use of white space and a narrow column that aligns the text as so.
Example 2 provides a less bold approach within its article, uses up more of the positive space, creating a more cluttered approach compared to Example 1. Both Examples use San Serif Fonts but approach it differently, Example 1 uses Bold techniques, where as Example 2 uses Italics.
