Through the exploration of this project so far, I have
developed a greater understanding of the concept of fame. Our society today cares more about the
artist than the art. We worship, or
idolise, people because we have a real need to have leaders; we have the need
to follow. Having "the look" appears today
to be more important than the talent that someone possesses. Sex sells.
Society enjoys building up the status of another to then get
the “entertainment” of watching them plummet right back to the bottom. Society thrives on watching people break. We
forget that famous people are exactly the same as the rest of us, they are
human. We will only ever see one side of
the famous – the side the media choose to show.
We forget that these people are businessmen and women who
are manufactured to sell the public a product and nothing more. We do not have any right to investigate their
private lives.
Understanding more about the ideology of fame has helped to inspire new
ideas for films to further explore and develop my concept to give viewers a
greater understanding of what FAME really is.
This is the FAME.
