Physically creating this appearance would have to be emphasised in the way my artist will be dressed for the pictures. As Laura Mulvey had mentioned in her theory that women are mainly dressed with revealing clothing, along with heavy make up in order to emphasise their feature mainly towards the male side of their audience. I intend to follow up on her theory by making sure that my artists make up will be emphasised, however I won’t be dressing my artist in revealing cloths. But intend dressing her to connote a sense of dominance and attitude. I think that this will therefore allow the female side to be drawn in by this type of star image, as they too will feels that this is the type of personality and appearance they would want to have. as my artist will also be dressed in a ‘tomboy style’, I think that this would therefore also attract the male side of my target audience, as from a questionnaire I had previously carried out most of the males had answered saying that they re more interested in the fashion sense of the artist.

The star’s image is an aspect of both Andrew Goodwin’s theory and every poster consisting of the artist face. Since there will only be one picture on the magazine album I intend to concentrate on make her make up more defined. I think that this will not only allow her personally of a power and dominate young artist clear, but it would also be able to in some type of way not follow the stereotypical poses and clothing seen in most female album poster. This way I can alter the way in which females are represented in the music industry as objects to desire, following Laura Muvley’s theory of the male gaze.

When designing my album poster I wanted not only to represent my artist but also make it clear for my audience to connote the genre of her songs as well. Though using Andrew Goodwin’s theory of the star’s image being key, I thought that this would be a great way of being able to present both the genre and my artist’s personality. In order to do so I had looked at a few magazine posters and saw that they were all mid shots of the artist along with he lighting being bright and clear. Not only will this allow my magazine to appear more professional, it will also allow my target audience to quickly notice the artist and gain their attention.

Magazine adverts are another way in which artists are able to promote their songs and albums. They have become extremely important in terms of synergy to help promote other products from the artist. The pictures used on the magazine adverts are usually close-ups/mid-close ups, this way the artists can be the main focus to catch the audience’s attention.
