  • Branding Artists and Arts Organizations
    Branding Artists and Arts organizations Turn your brand into a destination you want to be.

It also emphasise on encouragement of arts institution, arts managers and individual artists to apply branding principles in to their own organization or an individual art project. To justify to the arts community that branding is a very beneficial marketing tool that can explore their opportunity to enjoy the rest of their artistic life. To provide guidance on how and why to brand arts through good case examples about distinctive artists such as pop icon Madonna, great arts institution Victoria& Albert museum and former Finnish opera house the Alexander Theatre . To let arts organizations, art mangers and individual artists to understand why branding is important and how they can really apply it into practice. Brand is also an intellectual property and a financial asset, example of a great Finnish composer Jean Sibelius brand as an intellectual property whose wealth inherited by his family after death of the composer had been also introduced. The analytical research method of my study was qualitative. In my thesis I was not providing any statistical generalization of my findings within the frames of this project.

He went on to write “The Celluloid Closet,” the first book to critique Hollywood’s portrayals of gays on screen.

  • DIRECTED by MUSICIANS by Bryan Film and Music Are Two Different but Related Areas of Popular Entertainment
    MOVIES DIRECTED BY MUSICIANS by Bryan Film and music are two different but related areas of popular entertainment. One interesting way they intersect is in those times when musicians cash in the clout theyʼve built up to get behind the camera. Often itʼs a side project or an experiment, usually it receives some criticism as a vanity project, occasionally it becomes a new career. Here are a few examples of the odd creations that have resulted. 200 MOTELS (Frank Zappa [co-directing with Tony Palmer], 1971) Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention star as themselves in the most psychedelic and nonsensical movie on this list. Featuring Ringo Starr, Keith Moon and the London Philharmonic Orchestra. HUMAN HIGHWAY (Neil Young [co- directing with Dean Stockwell], 1982) Neil Young, Dean Stockwell, Dennis Hopper, Russ Tamblyn, Sally Kirkland and Devo (glowing red with radioactivity) are among the weirdos in this strange story of a diner next a leaking nuclear power plant. TRUE STORIES (David Byrne, 1986) David Byrne stars as a stranger visiting Virgil, Texas for the Celebration of Specialness and encountering oddballs portrayed by the likes of John Goodman, Spalding Gray, Swoosie Kurz, Pops Staples and the voice of Dom DeLuise. This has a soundtrack by the Talking Heads and is the only film on this list included in the Criterion Collection. UNDER THE CHERRY MOON (Prince, 1986) Mr. Rogers Nelsonʼs directorial debut is not as broadly appealing as Purple Rain, and upon release it tied with Howard the Duck for worst picture at The Razzies. As is often the case, they were disastrously wrong, and the movie holds up as a goofy, retro-styled romantic comedy with an all- timer soundtrack (released as the album Parade) including the classics “Kiss” and “Sometimes It Snows in April.” Itʼs shot in beautiful black and white by Michael Ballhaus (between two Scorsese movies) and features the film debut of Kristin Scott Thomas as the Prince characterʼs absolutely charming love interest.

  • The Culture of Queers
    THE CULTURE OF QUEERS For around a hundred years up to the Stonewall riots, the word for gay men was ‘queers’. From screaming queens to sensitive vampires and sad young men, and from pulp novels and pornography to the films of Fassbinder, The Culture of Queers explores the history of queer arts and media. Richard Dyer traces the contours of queer culture, examining the differ- ences and continuities with the gay culture which succeeded it. Opening with a discussion of the very concept of ‘queers’, he asks what it means to speak of a sexual grouping having a culture and addresses issues such as gay attitudes to women and the notion of camp. Dyer explores a range of queer culture, from key topics such as fashion and vampires to genres like film noir and the heritage film, and stars such as Charles Hawtrey (outrageous star of the Carry On films) and Rock Hudson. Offering a grounded historical approach to the cultural implications of queerness, The Culture of Queers both insists on the negative cultural con- sequences of the oppression of homosexual men and offers a celebration of queer resistance. Richard Dyer is Professor of Film Studies at The University of Warwick. He is the author of Stars (1979), Now You See It: Studies in Lesbian and Gay Film (Routledge 1990), The Matter of Images (Routledge 1993) and White (Routledge 1997).

Nikola Zdeňková Vedoucí práce: Mgr. Michal Šimůnek, Ph.D. České Budějovice 2016 Prohlášení Prohlašuji, že jsem svoji diplomovou práci vypracovala samostatně s použitím pramenů a literatury uvedených v seznamu citované literatury. Prohlašuji, že v souladu s § 47b zákona č. 111/1998 Sb. v platném znění souhlasím se zveřejněním své diplomové práce, a to v nezkrácené podobě elektronickou cestou ve veřejně přístupné části databáze STAG provozované Jihočeskou univerzitou v Českých Budějovicích na jejích internetových stránkách. V Českých Budějovicích dne 30. ledna 2016 …………………………… Poděkování Ráda bych poděkovala Mgr. Michalu Šimůnkovi, Ph.D. za cenné rady, věcné připomínky a vstřícnost při konzultacích a vypracování mé diplomové práce. Anotace Diplomová práce se věnuje problematice genderových stereotypů, které jsou prezentovány v hudebních videoklipech soudobých populárních písní. Práce je rozdělena do dvou částí, přičemž první, teoretická část, je zaměřena na vymezení základních pojmů a definic, které jsou spjaty s teorií genderu, médii a mediální komunikací. Další pasáž práce se zabývá vyobrazováním genderu v mediálních sdělení s důrazem na reklamu a populární hudbu. Druhá část práce se zaobírá samotným praktickým výzkumem, který vychází především z Goffmanova pohledu na genderovou stereotypizaci v reklamních sdělení. V návaznosti na teoretickou část jsou analyzovány vybrané hudební videoklipy. Pozornost je soustředěna na identifikování a popsání mechanismů, prostřednictvím kterých jsou genderové stereotypy v populární hudbě reprodukovány. Zvolené hudební klipy byly analyzovány dle postupů zavedených v rámci tzv. obsahové analýzy. Výsledky analýzy ukazují, jakými způsoby je mužství a ženství ve videoklipech současné populární hudby zobrazováno.

  • Madonna E Seu Acervo Multiartístico: Os Fetichismos Visuais Na Obra Do Maior Mito
    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação 41º Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Joinville - SC – 2 a 8/09/2018 Madonna e seu Acervo Multiartístico: os fetichismos visuais na obra do maior mito 1 pop do século XX Rafael Nacif de Toledo PIZA2 Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro - UERJ Resumo O presente artigo pretende fazer uma retrospectiva da carreira da cantora Madonna, tendo como ponto de tensionamento os fetichismos visuais, conceito desenvolvido pelo italiano Massimo Canevacci em 2008. Nosso intuito é analisar o desenvolvimento cronológico da obra da cantora, relacionando suas iniciativas ao escopo teórico criado pelo sociólogo italiano, oferecendo pistas para decifrarmos os segredos de sua longevidade e do sucesso por trás de sua persona pública. Palavras-chave Madonna, cronologia, fetichismos visuais. Introdução Ser fã de Madonna é um privilégio e uma honra. Acompanhar a carreira de uma cantora, atriz, produtora, diretora de cinema, celebridade e personalidade é uma tarefa das mais prazerosas e dispendiosas. Montar uma coleção de objetos da Madonna pode custar alguns bons reais que poderiam ser investidos em outras coisas, como carros, roupas e outros itens de consumo. Mas deixando o lado mercantil de lado e focando na parte estética, o que Madonna nos apresenta é uma coleção de hits para as pistas de dança e baladas empacotados em formatos correspondentes às tecnologias do período, sempre com fotografias riquíssimas e figurinos ousados, tipologias inovadoras e designs de cair o queixo. Madonna e os fetichismos visuais de Canevacci Em 2008, Massimo Canevacci desenvolve “Fetichismos visuais: corpos erópticos e metrópole comunucacional” (Ateliê Editorial, 2008).

  • Jerry Douglas's <I>Tubstrip</I> and the Erotic Theatre of Gay Liberation
    The Journal of American Drama and Theatre (JADT) https://jadt.commons.gc.cuny.edu Legitimate: Jerry Douglas's Tubstrip and the Erotic Theatre of Gay Liberation by Jordan Schildcrout The Journal of American Drama and Theatre Volume 30, Number 1 (Fall 2017) ISNN 2376-4236 ©2017 by Martin E. Segal Theatre Center From 1969 to 1974, after the premiere of Mart Crowley’s landmark gay play The Boys in the Band (1968) and before the establishment of an organized gay theatre movement with companies such as Doric Wilson’s TOSOS (The Other Side of Silence), there flourished a subgenre of plays that can best be described as gay erotic theatre. While stopping short of performing sex acts on stage, these plays featured copious nudity, erotic situations, and forthright depictions of gay desire. In the early years of gay liberation, such plays pushed at the boundaries between the “legitimate” theatre and pornography, and in the process created the most exuberant and affirming depictions of same-sex sexuality heretofore seen in the American theatre. Some of these works were extremely popular with gay audiences, but almost all were dismissed by mainstream critics, never published, and rarely revived. The most widely seen of these plays was Tubstrip (1973), written and directed by Jerry Douglas, whose career in the early 1970s was situated squarely at the intersection of legitimate theatre and pornography. An analysis of Tubstrip and its groundbreaking production history can illuminate an important but often overlooked chapter in the development of gay theatre in America. Tubstrip (which can be read “tub strip” or “tubs trip”) is a risqué farce set in a gay bathhouse, written by “A.
