Star Image
 (Livvy)
What makes a star?
 What image are institutions trying
to portray to their audiences about
 a certain star. Stars from different
  genre backgrounds will want to
have different images. Pop – bright
   and colourful. Rock – Darker
     colours and more muted.
Examples -
While releasing her first album Taylor Swift was
made to be a ‘country star’ and this is shown in this
album cover by having her in a rural
background, her hair natural and her make up
minimal. This is to represent her as a simplistic girl
who doesn’t rely on anything other than her guitar.



I don’t know what album release this is (as I’m not
really a Marilyn fan. TAINTED LOVE ANYONE?)
this is a perfect example of a star image created to
scare. This album cover shows him covered in dark
make up, leaning forward with a sinister look on his
face and tinted green (this could be related to
witches and witchcraft).
The purpose of the star image
 To appeal to a certain audience. As
   mentioned in the first slide most
     genres want a specific image.
   Rock/Indie would want a more
rebellious image than that of Pop and
  R ‘n’ B as their audience would be
predominantly made up of rebellious
               teenagers.
The end.
