Desde então, a contínua popularidade da artista deu a ela e a seus colaboradores respaldo para executar inovações tanto estilísticas quanto temáticas neste formato. A artista adotou os clipes como mais um desdobramento de seu trabalho artístico e como ferramenta para a construção ou a fabricação de sua imagem pública. Esta dissertação foi guiada pelo propósito de analisar videoclipes, considerando-os como obras expressivas passíveis de serem compreendidas tanto em abordagens voltadas para o deslindamento de sua organização interna quanto no seu funcionamento como instrumentos efetivos no processo de construção de imagem de Madonna. O trabalho apresenta o resultado da aplicação de uma metodologia de análise sobre um corpus de 18 (dezoito) clipes representativos do percurso videográfico da artista. Foram incluídas obras correspondentes a canções de todos os álbuns da cantora e, desse modo, de todas as suas fases criativas. Esta abordagem analítica textual foi desenvolvida e aplicada no grupo de pesquisa Laboratório de Análise Fílmica, coordenado pelo Prof. Wilson Gomes, e procurou identificar: a) os elementos primordialmente manipulados em cada obra, b) os modos de organização interna destes elementos e c) os tipos de efeitos programados na obra e por ela suscitados. Com base na familiaridade conquistada no contato com toda a videografia de Madonna e de posse dos resultados da abordagem individualizada dos videoclipes selecionados, foi avaliada a recorrência de certos elementos – temáticos, cênicos, imagéticos, musicais, narrativos e coreográficos – de uma obra para a outra, procurando identificar a relação destes achados com diferentes conceitos ou pressuposições que nortearam e norteiam as impressões a respeito de Madonna. A imagem da artista está associada à versatilidade, ao amplo controle criativo do seu trabalho, à verve polêmica e à habilidade de reinventar-se através de apropriações diversas, assunção de diferentes personae artísticas e os mais variados arquétipos. Palavras-chave: Videoclipe; Madonna; Crítica e interpretação; Análise textual; Vídeo; Construção de imagem; Música pop-rock; Arte e comunicação. 5 ABSTRACT Madonna’s videography, begun over 20 years ago, follows the evolution of music video itself, also consolidated in the 1980s. Ever since, Madonna’s continuous popularity has provided her and her supporting team with a basis to perform both stylistic and thematic innovations in her music videos. The singer adopted music videos as an additional unfolding to her work and as a tool to construct and forge her public image. This thesis intended to analyse music videos, considering them expressive works which can be understood not only through approaches concerned with the elucidation of their internal organization, but also in terms of their operation as effective tools in the process of construction of Madonna’s image. The result of the application of a methodology of analysis on 18 music videos, representative of Madonna’s videography, is presented. Videos for songs from all of her albums and, therefore, from all of her creative phases have been included. This textual, analytical approach was developed and applied in the Laboratory of Film Analysis, research group coordinated by Professor Wilson Gomes. The approach intended to identify: a) the elements fundamentally manipulated in each work, b) the forms of internal organization of these elements and c) the kinds of effects programmed in the work under analysis. Based on the familiarization obtained by the contact with all the videography of Madonna, and by means of the results of the analysis of each selected music video, the recurrence of certain thematic, scenic, imagetical, musical, narrative and choreographical elements was assessed, aiming at the identification of their relationship with several concepts and preconceptions on which the impressions about Madonna have been based. Madonna’s image is associated with versatility, with a wide, creative control over her work, with her polemical verve and her ability to re-create herself by means of different appropriations, the assumption of several artistic personae and diverse archetypes. Key words: Music videos; Madonna; Criticism and interpretation; Textual analysis; Video; Image fabrication; Popular music; Art and communication. 6 SUMÁRIO INTRODUÇÃO 8 1.

Denominados simplesmente de short films, essas filmagens em estúdio tinham uma duração entre três e oito minutos e mostravam apresentações de diferentes artistas, como, por exemplo, Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday e Bing Crosby. Alguns desses short films organizavam-se também como breves conduções narrativas, que apresentavam, às vezes, temas mais instigantes do que os próprios filmes de Hollywood. Como o formato era considerado meramente uma distração prévia à exibição dos longas, a censura sobre os short films era menos severa; desse modo, as histórias mostradas podiam caracterizar-se pela presença de certa ironia, dedicando-se a comentários sociais ou políticos. Na mesma época, as investidas européias semelhantes resultaram, como de hábito, em filmes de caráter mais nitidamente experimental: a imagem tendia à abstração ou ao jogo de formas geométricas e utilizava-se a música erudita ou o jazz2. Com o advento da Segunda Guerra Mundial, os short films perderam seu espaço nas salas de cinema, deixando de ser produzidos. Uma possibilidade alternativa para a exibição de curtas musicais surgiu em dois momentos e locais diferentes. Trata-se da invenção de máquinas caça-níqueis batizadas The Panorom Sound (EUA, pós-guerra) e Scopitone (França, década de 1960) e distribuídas em bares, clubes e pontos comerciais: a concorrência televisiva foi determinante para o 1 Não se tratando, portanto, de trechos editados de filmes musicais. 2 O mais destacado cineasta com este tipo de trabalho foi o alemão Oskar Fischinger.

  • “Vogue” Em Performances Do Carnaval Carioca Strike a Pose!

A mediação do videoclipe “Vogue” em performances do Carnaval carioca Strike a Pose! Mediations of “vogue” music video in Performances of Brazilian Carnival Simone Pereira de Sá1 Rodolfo Viana de Paulo2 Resumo: O artigo tem por objetivo abordar as mediações do videoclipe da canção “Vogue”, de Madonna, buscando discutir o seu agenciamento de corpo- reidades periféricas em dois momentos: nos anos 1980, quando o videoclipe se apropria e amplia a visibilidade da dança voguing, praticada pela cena cultural LGBT nova-iorquina, e duas décadas depois, quando o videoclipe é, por sua vez, uma das referências para jovens dançarinos gays nas suas apresentações em alas das escolas de samba do Carnaval carioca. Assim, interessa-nos discutir as zonas de diálogo e de tensão entre performances locais e globais, tendo como aportes teóricos a discussão sobre “cosmopolitismo estético” (REGEV, 2013) e sobre as divas pop como ícones culturais (JENNEX, 2013), entre outras referências. Palavras-chave: Vogue; Madonna; performance; videoclipe; escolas de samba. Abstract: The article discusses the mediations of Madonna’s Music Vid- eo Vogue, seeking to discuss its agency on peripheral bodies in two moments: the first, in the 80s, when the song and music video appropriates the steps and gestures of Voguing created by the LGBT scene in New York; and the second moment, two decades later, when the music video is, in turn, one of the refer- ences for young, black and gay dancers who practice Vogue dance during their presentations on Rio de Janeiro’s samba schools in the present time.

  • The Time Has Come, for You to Lip-Sync, for Your Identity: Bridging the Queer
    The Time Has Come, For You to Lip-Sync, For Your Identity: Bridging the Queer Gap Between Theory and Practice Thesis RMA Musicology Vera van Buren (5539307) Feb- Aug 2019 RMA Musicology | Supervisor: Dr. Olga Panteleeva | Second reader: Dr. Judith Peraino Abstract The humanities seem to want to specialize in capturing the human experience in their socio-cultural context. It seems, however, that throughout the past decades, certain experiences are harder to academically pin down than others. The critique posed by queer people on queer theory is one example of this discrepancy. Judith Butler, Maggie Nelson, Sara Ahmed and Crystal Rasmussen are some authors who intellectually capture the experience of queerness. Especially Butler has received critique throughout her career that her description of queerness had very little to do with the real-lived experience of queer people. But, her work showed seminal in the deconstruction of gender identity, as did the works by the other mentioned authors. Despite the important works produced by these authors, it is still difficult to find academic works that are written with a ‘bottom-up’ approach: where the voices of oppressed groups are taken for the truth they speak, while academic references are only there to support their claims. In this thesis, I utilize this ‘bottom-up’ approach, testing through my case study—namely, the experiences of Dutch drag queens, specifically how they experience topics around lip-sync performances—to what extent their lived experience is in accordance with the theoretical works by which they are framed. Through interviews with Dutch drag queens, by attending drag shows, and by critically reviewing academic literature, I will test the discrepancy, or parallel, between the theory, and practice.

  • "WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC: POLKAS, PARODIES and the POWER of SATIRE by Chuck Miller Originally Published in Goldmine #514
    "WEIRD AL" YANKOVIC: POLKAS, PARODIES AND THE POWER OF SATIRE By Chuck Miller Originally published in Goldmine #514 Al Yankovic strapped on his accordion, ready to perform. All he had to do was impress some talent directors, and he would be on The Gong Show, on stage with Chuck Barris and the Unknown Comic and Jaye P. Morgan and Gene Gene the Dancing Machine. "I was in college," said Yankovic, "and a friend and I drove down to LA for the day, and auditioned for The Gong Show. And we did a song called 'Mr. Frump in the Iron Lung.' And the audience seemed to enjoy it, but we never got called back. So we didn't make the cut for The Gong Show." But while the Unknown Co mic and Gene Gene the Dancing Machine are currently brain stumpers in 1970's trivia contests, the accordionist who failed the Gong Show taping became the biggest selling parodist and comedic recording artist of the past 30 years. His earliest parodies were recorded with an accordion in a men's room, but today, he and his band have replicated tracks so well one would think they borrowed the original master tape, wiped off the original vocalist, and superimposed Yankovic into the mix. And with MTV, MuchMusic, Dr. Demento and Radio Disney playing his songs right out of the box, Yankovic has reached a pinnacle of success and longevity most artists can only imagine. Alfred Yankovic was born in Lynwood, California on October 23, 1959. Seven years later, his parents bought him an accordion for his birthday.
