Textual Analysis of a film website

Both of the main characters are displayed on the homepage, they remain stationary whilst the background smoke is animated and a light flickers over the character on the left.  
  What’s included on the website: 
                        About The Film: There are 3 other buttons which appear underneath this one.  Story: This page displays a picture of the two main characters with information underneath giving the audience a general overview of what the film is about. Cast: This page displays pictures of all of the characters in the form of a slideshow with classic quotes which they say through the film. Crew: This page shows a picture of the of 3 of the characters and writing displayed underneath it revealing information such as ‘Directed By:’, ‘Written By:’, ‘Produced By:’ and ‘Executive Producers:’
Video: When this button is clicked on a pop-up of the trailer appears on the screen.  
Photos: There’s a slideshow of shots which are used in the film.
Downloads: On this page there are 3 different items which can be downloaded, these are: Wallpapers, Twitter Skins and IM Icons in which you can pick which size image you download.  
Cadet Academy: Included on this page are 3 games, which are ‘The Line-Up’ in which you have too study a sketch then study the suspects and match them together. Another one is ‘Crime Scene’ in which you have to identify the differences between 2 identical crime scenes. Finally the last playable game is a personality test.

How this applies to my film:
      As this home page has a picture in the background of the main characters I am also going to use a picture including my main characters. I am going to include some of the buttons which they’ve included on their site and apply them to my film. I am going to include buttons named: About the Film, Story, Cast, Crew, Video and Photos.
