My Website Analysis


How I have applied Richard Dyer star theory into this Website

Richard Dyer stated 'A start is a image not a real person that is constructed (as any other aspect of fiction is) out of a range of materials (eg advertising, magazine etc as well as films(music'.

One of Dy first theories are that starts are a construction for example Miley Cyrus first started out as Hannah Montana but then as the target audience started to age she started changing her personality suiting the older target audience. Therefore for Kygo I'm illustrating him as a start whom is still overwhelmed by the fact he is famous. This will appeal toward the majority of his target audience. Thus making him constructed by the media (fans, pictures).

From Richard Dyers start theory I have constructed Kygo's website into a youthful, fun and inspiriting towards the audience. Therefore I have linked his website with Facebook,Twitter, Sound cloud and Instagram, which is seen to be popular within the current youth system as they are all using social media.This helps Kygo fans keep up with all the latest trends, news, styles and gossip helping Kygo gain higher publicity as the it makes Kygo seem as if he is simultaneously present and absent at the same time.Thus making Kygo seem more or an icon figure as his philosophy revolves around his fans, therefore within the sites opening picture it illustrates Kygo standing above all of the audience however instead of him looking at this camera he is looking at the fans thus conveying he cares more about the music and fans rather than his publicity/fame.
