(the guidance inside the google drive may say ‘a portfolio consists of three illustrated case studies’, just ignore it and only one of it is needed)-
Should show a consideration of different methodologies for analysing celebrity and engage with a range of primary materials.
Demonstrate a breadth of knowledge(e.g. different local, national and transnational contexts, historical periods, different forms of media, DIFFERENT KIND OF CELEBRITY, and theoretical frameworks)
Three case studies should be treated as three separate pieces of work and should not be linked.
– No need to include an overall introduction and conclusion to the portfolio. A concise title for each case study should be included.
– Avoid simply describing, and choose a clear focus for your analysis.
– Creative and thoughtful use of illustrations are encouraged. (e.g. stills from films, tv interviews, news reports or music videos, screen grabs of social media or blogs, scans of magazine copy, photographs of images of merchandise or the way celebrity appears in space like posters around the city)
