RoundTable - STAR

How does the series use dual-focus narrative as a strategic storytelling tool beyond heteronormative romantic pairings?

The show's emphasis on diverse characters, relationships, and experiences contributes to its rich and multifaceted portrayal of contemporary life in the music industry. In the pilot, the show opens with the main character, Star, staring at herself in a mirror designed to look like a backstage dressing room mirror, followed by a proud smirk as she gleefully exits the room, drags her hand across the velvet curtains, and lights come up as we hear audience uproar. Although the scene is hopeful and exciting, it’s accompanied by an unidentified narrator that’s saying how Star always thought she would be as big as her name, but she’s a complicated girl who is not a fan of rules or playing with others. More broadly, however, Star overall uses really clever and unique ways to include dual focus narrative.

"Star" features a diverse cast of characters from different backgrounds, ethnicities, and sexual orientations. By employing a dual-focus narrative, the show can delve into the individual experiences and struggles of each character, regardless of their romantic relationships. This allows for a more comprehensive exploration of diverse identities and perspectives.

youtube

While romantic relationships are present in the show, "Star" places a significant emphasis on the bonds of friendship and sisterhood between the main characters. The dual-focus narrative allows the show to explore the complexities of these relationships, including conflicts, loyalty, and support, without solely relying on romantic pairings to drive the story forward.

In addition to personal relationships, "Star" also explores the professional ambitions and aspirations of its characters. Like so clearly stated in Robynn Stilwell’s “Dual-Focus Strategy in a Serial Narrative,” the dual-focus narrative allows the show to depict the challenges and triumphs of pursuing careers in the music industry, including issues related to fame, success, and artistic integrity. I also think it’s important to note that although the name of the show is Star, after the shows protagonist, the dual focus highlight is in the show’s ability to keep the narrative relevant to all characters.

What are the “inevitable” couplings within the series and how are they accentuated through “cinematic” similarities and contrasts?

The "inevitable" couplings within the series "Star" are accentuated through cinematic techniques that highlight both similarities and contrasts between the characters. By utilizing visual storytelling elements such as framing, lighting, and editing, the series enhances the emotional depth and complexity of these relationships, contributing to the overall narrative richness of the show. There are notable relationships between important characters throughout the series’ run, however, for the sake of this, I will be discussing the more prominent relationships that align more closely with the inevitable and cinematic couplings.

Alex Crane and Derek Jones share a deep connection rooted in their shared passion for music and their journey to overcome personal obstacles. Cinematically, their coupling is accentuated through sequences that showcase their musical collaborations, often featuring dynamic camera movements and editing techniques to emphasize their creative synergy. Additionally, contrasts in their backgrounds and personalities are explored, adding depth to their relationship dynamics.

Carlotta Brown and Jahil Rivera share a complex relationship that evolves throughout the series, blending elements of mentorship, friendship, and romantic tension. Their coupling is accentuated through cinematic parallels, such as shared close-up shots during moments of vulnerability and reflective lighting to convey the emotional depth of their connection. However, contrasts are also evident, particularly in scenes where they confront their conflicting priorities and loyalties.

How does the series use musical numbers within and beyond the narrative world to replicate fairy tale, backstage, or folk musicals?

They talk about resolution and situation when it comes to tv series musicals. How shows have situational reasons to perform and introduce songs into the overall plot/narrative. After television musicals picked up again after about 10 years with Glee, and that popular narrative of teen/young adult casts melted into the backstage musical, which set off the more recent trend of tv programs. The film does replicate a backstage musical. The vocal performances are set up in as performances for the characters, however, they break the fourth wall and go into somewhat of a music video. The camera angles follow the performers, engaging and looking into the camera, sometimes even fantasy sequences where the girls are imagining themselves on a bigger stage. In breaks of register from speaking - singing and walking to dancing, there’s a developed language that smooths those transitions either through a carefully cultivated “naturalism” or an escape into fantasy, or both. Musical numbers in Smash and Nashville slide along the continuum, while aspects like camerawork or performance style can increase, intensify, or even create narrative elements that do not necessarily exist “on the page”(Stilwell, 2019).

youtube

In addition to performing on stage, the characters in "Star" frequently use musical numbers to express their emotions, resolve conflicts, and navigate the challenges of the music industry. These backstage musical moments provide insight into the characters' inner thoughts and feelings, allowing viewers to connect with their struggles and triumphs on a deeper level. Through music, the series explores themes of ambition, rivalry, and redemption, mirroring the drama and intensity of backstage life in the entertainment industry.

Back with another warm up sketch of DC’s latinx and hispanic heroes and antiheroes, this time with Carlotta Rivera, aka, JOLT.

Carlotta was a model from Spain (what was it about the 80′s that gave us so many superheroes who where models, or that worked a sidegig as models -Fire, Ice, Starfire, JOLT, Vixen, Green Lantern Arisia Rrab, Jade-), during the “Invasion!” event, where among many things caused by an alien invasion of Earth, was the “awakening” of the dormant metagene that gave powers to a lot of people.

Carlotta was one of these people with newfound powers, in her case, the ability to generate force fields and absorb energy, so she became the superhero JOLT and then joined the international superhero team (another one of these in the 80s), The Blasters, which was composed of her; former Justice League mascot Snapper Carr and his alien furry girlfriend, Churljenkins; Looking Glass from England; Dust Devil from Israel and his overprotective mother, Mrs. Levy; Frag from Austria; Crackpot from the US; and a dominator alien named Gunther.

This was another instance of “this is supposed to be DC’s next big thing”, and was a passion project of writer, but then DC was like “you know what, let’s give the Legion of Superheroes another try”, and the Blasters where sent to limbo (except for Snapper Carr) and JOLT faded, never to be seen again.

Modeling careers - drop or keep?

Just for fun. Someone mentioned the ridiculous number of women in comics who have been models. so I went to dc wiki for a list of models.

Now, counting only heroes, which ones would you keep or drop the modeling history for if you were doing a reboot?

Beatriz da Costa (Fire) - Probably drop. There are just better things to do with her, I think. But I haven’t read any with her as model, so maybe it matters?

Carlotta Rivera (Jolt) - I don’t even know who she is, to be honest.

Delilah Tyler (Phantom Lady) - Haven’t read her, no opinion

Jennifer-Lynn Hayden - I have read a little with her, but still don’t have an opinion.

Koriand’r (Starfire) - Definitely keep. Maybe not forever, but let her make some money on this planet. And being super-hot is rather a defining characteristic of hers.

Mari McCabe (Vixen) - Haven’t read enough of her to have an opinion.

Natalie Gurdin (Lady Blackhawk) - Didn’t know who she was either.

Rebecca Carstairs (Witchfire) - Another one I haven’t read, but her bio indicates it relevant to her origin.

Dick Grayson (Nightwing) - I wasn’t aware he’d ever modeled, but he’s listed. Wouldn’t use.

Ronnie Raymond (Firestorm) - See Dick Grayson

Tora Olafsdotter (Ice) - See Dick Grayson and Ronnie Raymond

Videos

Phantom

- Peter Jorde, Teresia Bokor, Tomas Ambt Kofod

2009; Copenhagen

5 video clips and 1 audio clip. The audio clip is of The Mirror. The videos are of the title song, Music of the Night, Wishing, Point of No Return, and Down Once More. The video is shot from further away and is pretty blurry all in all, but sometimes the camera zooms in. But there are still no good close ups or sharp details. MP4. 2:1 ratio.

- Ben Crawford, Eryn LeCroy, Jay Armstrong Johnson, Raquel Suarez Groen, Carlton Moe, Maree Johnson, Kelsey Connolly, Rachel Anne Moore February 7/28, 2019; Broadway Matinee shows. Five clips, featuring Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again, Wandering Child, and Point of No Return and the Final Lair. They are shot from the front row, so sometimes things can be missed. But not as much as you’d expect. It is a nice first visual look at Eryn in action. Also, if you look at the back row on the right, you can spot Rachel Anne Moore in the Sitzprobe scene! The ones shot from the right of the stage are from the 7th, the ones from the left are from the 28th.

- Michael Crawford, Sarah Brightman, Steve Barton

1988; Broadway

About 6 minutes of press reels of the original Broadway cast. Includes the title song, 'Music of the Night', 'All I Ask of You', 'Masquerade', and 'Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again'. A lot of generation loss. Also includes press reels from other shows.

Love Never Dies

- Bronson Norris Murphy, Meghan Picerno, Karen Mason, Sean Thompson, Mary Michael Patterson, Katrina Kemp September 25, 2018; St. Louis Full video of the 1st US Tour. Bronson and Meghan have amazing chemistry and voices. You should all have this video for their voices alone.
