Better The Devil You Know
In Kylies video "Better The Devil You Know" we can see she is represented in a totally different way from what we have previously seen such as "I should be so lucky". We see her as a different person in the way she is dressed and assed to us as an audience.
She is much more exposed and even trying to portray the 'sexy' look when she's dancing in this video. this is because as she is growing older as an artist as is her audience so to put across some eye candy is bad for the young- middle aged audience. In her other videos she has danced but not in this style; it's normally a fully choreographed pieced with both male and female dancers. Whereas in "Better The Devil You Know" she is dancing with men that have there tops off or undone. Kylie is also wearing a lot less that what we are used to seeing with a crop top and skin tight gold shorts.
We can see Kylie is trying to create a new star image, there is one other star that it is clear she is compering herself to Madonna we can see this in Madonna's song 'Like A Payer', although kylies video 'Better The Devil You Know' is not as offensive as Madonna's video we can see that the way they are dressed is very similar. both in a black dress with very thin straps and they both seem to wear it in a way that the straps fall down this can give a 'sexy' look.

Www. Mostly basic analysis.
ReplyDeleteTmp. Try to link examples to relevant theory for example Goodwin's theory of music videos or Mulvey's male gaze. Look at examples of other blogs to see how you could develop your work.
Research and planning showing a basic understanding of similar products and audience. You need to focus more on technical features and how this constructs aspects of star image etc. When you begin developing the planning make sure you identify target audience and link back to your research.
