Work for Year 13 from Mr Philip

STAR IMAGE IN MUSIC VIDEO

Read page 29-31.

How a star’s image develops over time through music video

"a star is an image constructed from a range of materials" (Richard Dyer)

These materials include


the songs (their lyrical themes and musical structures/genres),
the record covers (singles and albums and the image of the star they present),
media coverage (from interviews about career and private life through to tabloid gossip),
live performance (the image through the stage show)

the music videos, which may draw upon the image presented in each of the other aspects

In groups prepare notes for a power point presentation on a star you want to analyse whose image has changed over time eg Madonna, Lady Gaga. Read page 31 worksheet as a guide to your notetaking.
You will present this next lesson.
