Layout ideas: Elevating hero sections and product screenshots

Any creative ways to showcase the hero image and product screenshots?

Project plan

Hero section: Develop a more engaging and visually striking layout for the hero section of the homepage.
Product screenshot: Explore creative ways to enhance the screenshots, adding visual interest and impact.

Requests from stakeholders

  • Keep the company's brand color for consistency.
  • The hero section should seamlessly accommodate a diverse range of graphics, including both illustrations and stock images.
  • The hero section could feature a dynamic ticker to highlight the site's "currentness" and engage users with real-time updates.
  • Product screenshots often lack visual impact—let's find innovative ways to make them more engaging and captivating.
  • Limited developer support—let's avoid groundbreaking changes and focus on keeping it simple.
  • The new layout should be versatile enough to be implemented consistently across the entire site, not limited to just a single page.

Current issues

  • Hero section mainly uses stock images, but because a black overlay is added to make the headline and subheadline readable, it makes the image underneath hard to see. This reduces the visual impact and overall look of the section.
  • Product screenshot is often too small and is hard to read the content, and not visually compelling.

Ideas

First idea:

  • Hero section is optimized for illustrations. The "ticker" is added to the hero section.
  • The product screenshot effectively uses cropping and zooming to create a strong focal point, highlighting the key details and drawing the viewer's attention where it matters most.

Second idea:

  • Hero section can accommodate both illustration and stock images. The "ticker" is added to the hero section.
  • The product screenshot features a "dynamic zoom-in" functionality, giving users the ability to seamlessly control which part of the image they want to focus on.
