Task 3: Socail Media





Cheryl Cole's Facebook page


This page dates Cheryl Cole back to when she joined Facebook, and it's showing everything that's happened since becoming famous. We see specific evidence of her own advertisement i.e. New book out, a new song etc..

This post is advertising her new calendar, and it shows some comments and if people have liked it or not.

Here is another example of her advertising a place she's going to show up at and be nominated for an award.



Both are examples of the singer advertising her life, what's happening and that she doesn't just sell music. This is showing fans that Cheryl is a so called 'Hollywood' icon for fans to read gossip about, rave about new books and chat shows, all to advertise her star persona, so that the audience become interested in her as a star so could come to become curious about her music. Further use that the star is trying to reach out to her fan beyond her music is through other advertisement i.e. interviews, on the cover of magazines, talk shows etc..

An example of Cheryl advertising her new album in an interview on a website.

An interview of Cheryl and Allen Carr talking about her and what's going on in her life at the moment and what her fans are to expect. 
 
We also see Cheryl Cole in specific adverts like: 

 Cheryl is used in an advert here to sell some lip gloss and the advert mentions her, with backstage footage, and what colour she's even wearing.  

All these other types of advertising for Cheryl Cole, shows fans that she's created a star persona of a 'good girl' type who is very open and her face is now something than can market products for L' oreal Paris. This shows that she is trying to connect to the audience by showing up in adverts, famous chat shows, interviews etc... to communicate their star persona.   

How I would use Facebook and other social sites to increase viewers for my music video. 

Some examples of what my Facebook page might look like: 

Rhianna

Pixie Lott












These are two examples of how I would present my own star, using certain apps to easily buy my Album. Appointing the artist the latest update of Facebook, also being able to sign up to her page as well having short cuts to her videos would be a good idea to sell her music. However I might also consider having other social networks like Twitter.
