Research - Fansites




For our A2 media coursework not only must we create a music video for an album track but we also have to create a CD cover for our music video and create a fansite informing our fans of upcoming events and what the band or artist has been up to. Therefore, I have been looking at the fansites of different artists and making notes about them, observing how they attract their audience.

I recently looked at Taylor Swift's and Miley Cyrus' fansites.
Taylor Swift's Fan site:
Pictures of Taylor Swift,
Page is like a scrapbook - Reminds us of a diary. Perhaps appealing to teenagers.
Lots of links around the page -
"Vote for taylor Teen choice 09"
"Win Taylor items"
"Tour photos"
"Watch taylor"
"see taylor"
"gallery"
"community"
"taylor store"
"media"
"news"
Automatic music plays.
Miley Cyrus' fansite.
Pictures of miley cyrus,
"latest news- Miley covers Elle magazine!!"
"home link"
"miblog" - so we can see what the artist has been up to.
