2. Katie Winston
Katie is the only female featured on my
front cover, contents page or double
page spread, therefore highlighting her
role as David Gauntlett’s Empowered
Female.
She is naturally quite a confident person
therefore reinforcing this theory, and has
long hair which connotes a free spirit and
her relaxed attitude to life which adheres
to the Indie/Rock convention.
I shall be taking 2 long shots of her with
the band for my front cover and double
page spread.
3. Billy Kaul
Billy will be part of ‘The Cloaks’ along
with Katie and Harry, and therefore he
will feature in 2 long shots.
Billy dresses very well which
represents the creative attributes
generally associated with those of this
genre.
He also has a unique look which
represents the individuality commonly
found in artists of the Indie/Rock
4. Harry Chaloner
Harry has a very care-free attitude to life
which is a convention of artists of the
rock genre. Some Indie artists are
slightly more serious and so this
subverts that stereotype.
Harry has longish hair which shows
Judith Butler’s Gender Performance as
long hair would stereotypically be
associated with females, and this shows
his individuality and not being held down
by society’s expectations of him which is
common among artists of this genre as it
challenges hegemonic ideas of
conformity.
5. Tom Ngai
Tom will be featured as ‘Louis Del
Grido’ on my contents page as the
main focal image holding a guitar.
Tom is very hardworking which will be
represented through the guitar,
showing that he plays his own music.
6. Josh Macqueen
Josh will be featured on my contents
page with 3 medium shots and
medium-long shots of him in low-key
lighting as if they have come off a
social media page such as twitter.
Josh’s photos will be slightly less
serious than the others to show the
carefree side of the genre and to add
variety to my choice of photos.
