My female artist is a young girl between the age of 16-18. She looks quite plane and stripped back only wearing nude make up, if any. We want her to be presented as innocent and vulnerable in order for the audience to sympathy with her.
My male artist is a young boy aged around 18. He isn't over dressed and comes across cool and humble. He dances in the video as well as rapping.
Using Goodwin's theory of star image both of my stars will be shot using close ups, extreme close ups and mid shots.
We will not be using Mulvey's male gaze theory on our female star as we want her to be presented as vulnerable and innocent.
Our male star will be following the popular culture theory as he will be more mainstream than our female artist and will be street dancing which is a part of popular culture.
Will we not be following hebdige's theory as our artist do not represent one subculture, however our female artist will be quite niche.
Your artists morals, values and personality types has been created and planned well which will give you a better insight into what you want from both of your artists. Their personality is conventional to the genre which will meet audiences expectations.
