  • «Ai, Ai, Ai, Isak!»
    Publisert fredag 04.11.2011 kl. 22:36 SKIVEBOM: Dagbladets anmelder synes Isak Heim bommet big time da han sang Radioheads «Karma Police» i kveld. ALLE FOTO: Thomas Reisæter/ TV2 «Ai, ai, ai, Isak!» Her er dommen over kveldens «Idol»-deltakere. Linn Isaksen [email protected] ANMELDER Publisert 04.11.2011, kl. 22:36 1. Vegard Leite (19): «Sweet Child Of Mine» (Guns N' Roses) Til kjæresten Marianne Scooter-sveisen og gitaren er byttet ut med energikick og skinnjakke når den unge vestlendingen tar for seg et av 80-tallets største rockeband, og godt er det. Det skal riktignok mye til å matche Axl Roses hvinende signaturstemme, men jeg synes Vegard Leite (19) fra Værlandet låta kler Vegards hese røst, til tross for at det blir litt svakt på de mørkeste partiene. Men alt i alt holder stemmen mål. Dette fengende og kult, og et show som tilfredsstiller alle sanser. 2. Marlen Tjøsvoll (19): «Songbird» (Eva Cassidy) Til mamma Marlen Tjøsvoll (19) fra Karmøy Det gode smilet, sentimentaliteten og øyekontakten er tilbake og løfter den rene, lyse stemmen ett hakk fra forrige fredag. Marlen kler å tone det hele ned slik at den nydelige vokalen når helt fram til det indre øret. Det er beundringsverdig av en 19-åring å takle en Cassidy-låt på denne måten. Stemmen hennes er i en klasse for seg, men hun har fortsatt litt å gå på som artist. Samme hvor fint hun synger, er det noe udefinerbart som blir litt kjedelig. 3. Kirsti Sørlie Hansen (25): «You Got The Love» (Florence + the Machine) Kirsti Sørlie Hansen (25) fra Rælingen Til bestemor Til bestemor Etter å ha sett Florence Welch opptre akustisk for bare få timer siden, er det med en blanding av nervøsitet og oppspilthet jeg venter på Kirstis opptreden i kveld.

  • Webb-TV Rapport
    MMS | Webb-TV Rapport Oktober 2011 Inledning MMS mäter och analyserar konsumtion av rörliga bilder. Sedan 1993 har MMS genomfört statistiskt säkerställda mätningar av TV-tittandet i Sverige. Sedan 2011 genomför MMS även mätning av TV på webben, så kallad webb-TV, i samarbete med deltagande webb-TV-aktörer. Vad som mäts Sedan länge mäter de flesta sajtägare antal besök, starter m.m. på sina webbplatser, både vad gäller webbsidor och webb-TV, med hjälp av olika webbmätningsbolag. MMS metod bygger på att det är samma webbmätningsbolag som används hos alla deltagande webb-TV-aktörer. Samtidigt mäter vi med precision hur länge en besökare tittat på varje program/klipp (titel). På så sätt erhålls en konsumtion i tid som är mer lik den etablerade mätningen av TV. MMS erbjuder professionella webb-TV-aktörer en mättjänst för att mäta rörlig bild på internet. Nedan redovisas överskådligt vad som mäts, hur mätningen genomförs och vilka mått som mätningen resulterar i. Kanaler/Sajter MMS målsättning är att många webb-TV-sajter skall delta i mätningen. Initialt omfattar mätningen TV- kanalhusen SVT, MTG TV, TV4, SBS TV och deras respektive play-tjänster. Nya kanaler, sajter och publicister kommer att läggas till efter hand, i takt med att de ansluter sig till tjänsten. För aktuell lista över vilka sajter och undersajter som mäts se bilaga 1 (sista sidan). Plattformar De plattformar som omfattas av mätningen är de som spelar upp material via en webbläsare, via en dator, mobiltelefon etc. Komplett lista över de plattformar som mäts visas i bilaga 1 (sista sidan). Trafik, webbläsare och geografisk avgränsning Det finns ingen rent geografisk avgränsning av trafikdata, all global trafik som genererats mäts.

  • Artist-Fan Engagement Model
    ARTIST-FAN ENGAGEMENT MODEL: IMPLICATIONS FOR MUSIC CONSUMPTION AND THE MUSIC INDUSTRY by SARITA M. STEWART SHUHUA ZHOU, COMMITTEE CHAIR KIMBERLY BISSELL KARLA GOWER EYUN-JUNG KI ARTHUR ALLAWAY A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Communication & Information Sciences in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2013 Copyright Sarita Martin Stewart 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT The Artist-Fan Engagement Model was developed to help explain the various factors present within the music artist-fan relationship. Its premise is based on the simple consumptive action of listening to an artist’s music. The model contains two key constructs, the first being the individual’s “Response To Artist,” which is explained using an expanded construct of parasocial interaction theory (e.g., Identification, Affinity, Similarity, and Imitation). A second “Response To Music” variable is comprised of four different music responses (e.g., Emotional, Sensorial, Imaginal, and Analytical) key in hedonic consumption. The influence of these two variables on “Engagement” was assessed. This was followed by an examination of how “Engagement” influences “Recorded Music Access” (e.g., broadcast, unpaid downloads, free streaming) and “Recorded Music Ownership” (e.g., paid subscription, paid downloads, and physical products). The study’s hypotheses and research questions were tested using an anonymous online survey. A total of 1,576 participants accessed the survey, with 940 respondents evaluating 806 individual song titles by 568 music artists. Structural Equation Modeling was the methodology used to analyze the collected survey data, which is in keeping with previous music oriented consumer behavior studies.
