Star Image – The Performer

This is my group’s star image/ performer mood board of Tyler the creator of a popular artist in the same genre with similar values as MASN our song’s artist.  The board represents how they are represented by the media and what they are like in real life outside of their music.

The artists are represented as extraordinary to make them seem more important than normal people, yet also having the star image of just ordinary to make the public and fans feel as if they are within reach and they can be the same as they are just a normal person. which in itself is a paradox of the star as they are portrayed as two different things which can confuse the audience as explained by Richard Dyer

this depends of the artists target audience and metanarrative on how their star image will be portrayed to the public, as every single thing these stars do is calculated and planned out to gain publicity and good PR.

He is represented as:

unbothered, flamboyant, funny, creative, comical and un naturalistic

After doing this research I feel our star needs to be portrayed as powerful yet non-chelant and funny, we can achieve this by having serious moments yet BTS footage of him making jokes and smiling whilst recording. This will make him relatable to the audience making him seem more approachable and fun to the fans
