"Advent Advent mein Soulmate brennt"

A Transformers Soulmate Adventcalendar

Day 23

Ship: Megatron x Starscream x Soundwave

AUs: Harmony, Merformers

The yearly festival of the twelfth moon is coming up and this year Megatron is determined to find out why his SIC and TIC never join the celebrations.

The village of the Decepticons was pulsing and fluttering with energy, but for once, it wasn't with battle anticipation but another kind of anticipation. As every year the time of the 12th full moon was the best time to find one's soulmate, Mer sang for the festival, and thus the chances of finding your perfect harmony were high.

The preparations were in full swing as mechs flitted around to fulfill their tasks. Overseeing the busy bunch was the leader of the Decepticons. Light reflected off of gunmetal gray scales as the big Mer swam across the festival place; the decorations were coming along nicely, and after one last sweeping look, Megatron moved on. With the decorations themselves going well, he now needed to check on the food preparations, the ceremony, and the security.

While Soundwave had reported that the Autobots too would be celebrating, it was better to be safe than sorry, lest they be surprised in the middle of their celebration. Thinking of Soundwave, where were his Second and Third in Command? Stopping in his tracks, the shark tried to remember if he had seen either one during the day already. It wasn't surprising to not see Soundwave without actively looking for him, but Starscream was usually easy to find.

Raking his brain a little longer, Megatron realized that he never really saw either of them around or at the celebration other than to get a drink. Megatron would usually only be half as curious if it were only Soundwave, but both his officers missing their tribe's most important celebration? That made him very curious and a little wary indeed. With his mind made up, he turned away from his previous path in order to search for both Starscream and Soundwave.

A deep frown rested on Megatron's faceplate as he sat on his throne, overseeing the last-minute preparations before the celebrations would begin. After searching for his SIC and TIC for hours without result, he saw himself forced to stop, or the celebrations would not have been ready in time. Not only that, but he also needed time to polish his plating. Nothing less than the best was appropriate for the celebration of soulmates, even if he himself had yet to find his.

With most Decepticons either already mated or too afraid to approach him, Megatron had accepted that finding his soulmate was unlikely. Nonetheless, he still saw it as his responsibility to go forth with a good example. Tearing himself away from his musings, he found everyone in position to start the celebrations. Trying to find his officers one last time in the crowd, he found himself oddly disappointed to see neither.

Sighing, he stood up, the chatter falling silent. His broad frame towered over his soldiers as his scales reflected the light. "Decepticons, once again, twelve full moons have passed. We are strong as ever and carry home win after win. However, today is not a day of fighting but a day of celebration. Today we feast and sing." Coming to the end of his speech, he reached for his glass and raised it. "All hail me." 'All hail Chief Megatron!' echoed back from the gathered mechs as they raised their own glasses. With the celebrations officially started, Megatron sank back into his throne. Raising his glass to take a drink, he noticed familiar dark tentacles in the corner of his optics.

Placing his glass back down, Megatron stood up again, following the glimpse of tentacles until they finally came to a stop. As he remembered, his TIC had stopped in front of the drinks. Not about to miss his opportunity, he was quick to swim over, and once next to Soundwave, he greeted him. "Soundwave, I've been looking for you," he stated, noting the way one of his tentacles twitched as he spoke up.

With every day that the Celebration of Soulmates came closer, Soundwave got busier. Rumble and Frenzy were wrong; he was neither grumpy nor nervous; he was simply busy. For one, he needed to make sure no Autobot would interrupt, then he'd inform himself of the guard roster Starscream had put together, and he had to make sure the Second in Command himself wasn't planning anything.

"Come on! You promised. ", the call of Frenzy pulled the Kraken out of his thoughts. With a sigh, he followed him; after all, he had truly promised to join the celebrations earlier this year.

In the privacy of his mind, the Mer could yield and agree that he was indeed unsettled by the celebration; being more or less always silent, he wasn't a good singer, and the idea of a soulmate made him nervous. And his excuses for being busy were just that: excuses. Though he could acknowledge that the last one was exactly that.

Starscream, much the same as him in that regard, kept as far from the village as possible without risking punishment. He didn't know the SIC reasons, but they had a mutual understanding concerning the celebration.

As they arrived at the festival site, he realized that they were not only earlier than usual but that the celebrations had just begun. Watching both twins mix themselves into the masses, he turned away with a sigh, making his way towards the drinks. He reached out to grab a glass as the sudden appearance of a quite familiar voice right next to him startled him.

While he didn't show much surprise, one of his tentacles twitched in surprise. "Chief Megatron, I wasn't aware you were, or I would have come." he replied, his tone calm. He turned to look at his leader. Most Mer's had to look up at least slightly to make optic contact, but Soundwave was one of the few that could hold optic contact quite comfortably.

Once he was looking at Megatron, Soundwave noted a glimmer of something in his leader's optics. A bit confused, he tilted his helm slightly. "I realized that both you and Starscream seem to never attend the celebration." Megatron said more than he asked, but the curiosity was clear to the spy master. As he waited for his answer, Megatron looked Soundwave over, trying to figure out why he was so much quieter than usual. Doing so, he noticed that Soundwave too had polished himself and admittedly looked rather good.

Collecting his words, Soundwave finally answered: "I'm not sure what to do here, and I cannot speak for Starscream." Ignoring the intense gaze, he turned to actually grab a glass; even with Megatron being an old friend, the conversation made him nervous, or maybe especially because he was.

"Not interested in finding a soulmate?" Megatron remarked, the answering nod actually surprising him. While he himself didn't actively look for his soulmate, he still looked forward to finding them. To not be interested in a soulmate was rare.

Sipping his drink Soundwave watched Megatron from the corner of his optics as he thought; once he seemed to have reached a conclusion, his optics seemed to focus back onto Soundwave. "Swim with me," he ordered at the end. Turning around, he swam towards the village edge, away from the celebrating Mers that got louder and rowdier with the klik.

Stuck between the relief of leaving and nerves at being alone with Megatron during the celebrations, Soundwave followed wordlessly.

The quiet continued as the two Mers swam next to each other, both lost in their own thoughts and simply enjoying the other's presence. As they neared the border between the reef and the open sea, Megatron once more found himself about to question Soundwave; however, as he opened his intake, there was suddenly a quiet, distant melody audible that made him close his intake once more.

Trading a look with Soundwave, both Mers quietly agreed to check out what exactly was making these strange but pleasing sounds. Following the sound turned out to be quite easy, and they soon found themselves looking at the source of the strange singing. Neither of the two really knew what to say or do as they watched the familiar form of Starscream settle himself in a sand nest with a cube of high-grade while singing to himself.

As they continued to watch without making Starscream aware of their presence, none of the three noticed the way two more voices had woven themselves into Starscream's own until the seeker stopped to take a sip of his high-grade. His helm snapped up, and he starred at the other two Mers who equally starred back at him.

Megatron, inwardly quite pleased with this turn of fate, could only suppress a groan at the way Soundwave stiffened next to him and a frown grew on Starscream's faceplate. He would make sure they would celebrate today, but for now he would weather the coming breems of figuring this all out.

KENDRA – TEEN IDOL (FALL SESSION) 2

TEEN IDOL

A teen idol is a celebrity with a large teenage fan-base. Teen idols are generally young but not necessarily teenaged. Often teen idols are actors or singers, but some sports figures also have an appeal to teenagers. Some teen idols began their careers as child actors, like Leif Garrett, Lindsay Lohan, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, and Hilary Duff.

The idol’s popularity may be limited to teens, or may extend to all age groups. Many teen idols are targeted for adults for nostalgia purposes.

There were teen idols before there were teen magazines, but idols have always been a permanent feature in magazines such as Seventeen, 16 magazine, Tiger Beat and Right On! in the United States, and in similar magazines elsewhere. With the advent of television, teen idols were also promoted through programs such as American Bandstand, The Ed Sullivan Show, Soul Train and in the UK Top of the Pops. Today’s teen idols have spawned an entire industry of gossip magazines, television shows, YouTube, and whole television channels such as E!.

Many American teen idols achieve "cross-over" success internationally; however, this list is not limited to American artists alone with some people such as German popstar Bill Kaulitz of the pop-rock band Tokio Hotel. In Asia, idols range from Japanese pop megastars Ayumi Hamasaki and Namie Amuro as well as Kana Nishino and Japanese music groups such as Momoiro Clover Z, Morning Musume, AKB48, and Perfume and Johnny & Associates boy bands Arashi, NEWS, KAT-TUN, and Hey! Say! JUMP among others while Chinese pop icon Jay Chou and Jolin Tsai, music groups F4 and Lollipop F, and South Korean singers BoA and Rain and music groups TVXQ, 2PM, 2AM, Beast, Shinee, EXO, Super Junior, f(x), 2NE1, BIGBANG, Wonder Girls, BTS, T-ara, Kara and Girls’ Generation are examples. In Latin America, idols ranges from Mexican pop stars Thalía, Timbiriche, Lynda Thomas, Magneto, Puerto Rican born Mexican Luis Miguel, Puerto Rican singer Marc Anthony, and the very popular Puerto Rican boy band Menudo in the 1980’s and 1990’s, and Paty Cantú, Anahi, Belinda. Ha^Ash and RBD in the 2000s and 2010’s. Besides, former Menudo member Ricky Martin, their chief rivals Los Chicos and former member Chayanne, Venezuelan actor and singer Guillermo Davila and more, to Argentina, where telenovela, Chiquititas, ushered in a new era of teen-idols for that country, including actors Benjamin Rojas, Felipe Colombo, Luisana Lopilato and Camila Bordonaba, who went on to form teen band Erreway, precursors to Mexican band RBD. In Spain, La Oreja de Van Gogh, Miguel Bose, Mecano and Hombres G all enjoyed teen-idol status. Even in the classical music field, a British-Chinese violinist Vanessa-Mae became the first "teen idol" in that category.

In the past, young sports icons and Olympic athletes during their competitive times were considered teen idols such as Jean-Claude Killy, Peggy Fleming, Joe Namath, Dorothy Hamill, Mark Spitz, Jim Craig, Nadia Comăneci, Mary Lou Retton, Michael Jordan, Dominique Moceanu, Michelle Kwan, Carly Patterson, Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin, Michelle Wie, Mia Hamm, Ryan Lochte, Michael Phelps, Missy Franklin, Katie Ledecky, Shaun White, Apolo Ohno, Simone Biles, Tom Daley, McKayla Maroney, and Gabby Douglas.

Early teen idols

The first known person to have been treated as a teen idol was Franz Liszt, the Hungarian pianist who, in the 1840’s, drew such a following among young women that the term "Lisztomania" soon came to describe the phenomenon. The kind of idolizing following Liszt drew in Europe would not be followed for several decades. Geraldine Farrar, American opera singer, had a large following of young women nicknamed "Gerry-flappers" in the early 20th century. Rudy Vallée, who became a major success in 1929 with hits like "Honey" and "Deep Night", may have been the first American popular singer to have been idolized by hundreds of teen-aged girls at sold-out concerts. He was also possibly the first popular singer to have a star vehicle created for him: The Vagabond Lover. Frank Sinatra, whose early career is often linked to his appeal to bobby soxers, is also regarded as having been amongst the first teen idols.

1950’s–1960’s

The great success of young rock stars like Elvis Presley and Pat Boone, film stars like Marlon Brando, Paul Newman, James Dean, Tab Hunter, and Sal Mineo in the 1950’s, as well as the wider emergence of youth subcultures, led promoters to the deliberate creation of teen idols such as singers Frankie Avalon, Fabian Forte, Frankie Lymon, and Connie Stevens. Even crooners like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra were still considered idols and rather handsome. Actors Edd Byrnes and Troy Donahue and other artists deliberately cultivated a (safer) idol image, like Paul Anka.

Anka initially modelled himself on a particular generic type, the teen idol [who] carried on the process … of changing the image of male youth … from wild to mild, by providing a cleaner, more wholesome image of masculinity than that of the previous era’s rebellious rockabilly heroes and (working-class) so-called juvenile delinquents, like those in West Side Story….

Post-war teens were able to buy relatively inexpensive phonographs — including portable models that could be carried to friends’ houses — and the new 45-rpm singles. Rock music played on 45’s became the soundtrack to the 1960’s as people bought what they heard on the radio. The great majority of the music being marketed to 1950’s teens was being written by adults, but 1960’s teens were increasingly appreciating and emulating artists closer to their own age, to teen fashion, and to lyrics which addressed their own concerns. Their parents worried about their attraction to artists (and DJs) who were edgy and rebellious. Faces on magazines fed fans; fans buy records, see films, watch TV and buy fashions.

Marketing of the teen idol generally focuses on the image…. The teen idol is structured to appeal to the pre-teen and young teen female pop audience member and children in general…. [They] are commodified in forms and images that are relatively non-threatening to this young audience and to the ancillary market of parents… The teen idol never appears to be autonomous and therefore never appears to be threatening as an adult; he remains, as long as he is popular, perpetually childlike and dependent.

Some marketers turned to film and TV for fresh, attractive, ‘safe’ faces. Tommy Sands’s debut in a television film about the phenomenon, The Idol, made a teen idol out of Sands himself. Ricky Nelson, a performer of rockabilly music, also became a teen idol through his parents’ television series, The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet. Some young TV stars were being hustled into studios to make recordings; for example, ex-Mousketeer Annette Funicello became one of the first big female idols as well as the Lennon Sisters whom had cut out dolls and were always on the covers of the gossip magazines; another, Johnny Crawford of The Rifleman, had five Top-40 hits. In 1963, Luke Halpin made a big splash as a teen idol in the television program Flipper. After Bye Bye Birdie was released in 1963, Bobby Rydell became an instant teen idol.

In the 1960’s as situation comedies and dramas on television using child actors became more popular, actors Paul Petersen, Patty Petersen, and Shelley Fabares from The Donna Reed Show, Dwayne Hickman from The Many Loves of Dobie Gillis, Sally Field of Gidget, Jon Provost of Lassie, Jay North from Dennis the Menace, Billy Mumy of Lost in Space (and later of novelty group Barnes and Barnes), Sajid Khan of Maya, and Keith and Kevin Schultz known as the "Schultz Twins" on The Monroes all became younger preteen idols and grew into being teen idols.

Likewise, Tommy Steele, the Beatles with Beatlemania, the Rolling Stones, and the Beach Boys were teen idols, especially during the earlier part of their careers, although they quickly grew out of that status. The Rolling Stones did it through a more rebellious image, the Beatles did it through their more developed (or "grown up") music. Similarly, Neil Sedaka had two distinct eras of his career, with about a decade in between: one as a teen idol in the 1960’s, and a later career in adult contemporary music. From the family band the Cowsills, Susan Cowsill, John Cowsill and Barry Cowsill became teen idols and were on teen magazine covers for many years. Many of the teen idols of the era were the sons of older, established stars; Dino, Desi & Billy were active as teen idols during the mid-sixties. The group included Desi Arnaz Jr (son of bandleader Desi Arnaz), Dean Paul Martin (son of singer Dean Martin), and Billy Hinsche (a mutual friend whose parents were not famous). Gary Lewis, son of comedian Jerry Lewis, fronted the Playboys during this era.

All of the Monkees became instant teen idols in the late 1960’s after their TV show became an overnight success, especially for Micky Dolenz and Davy Jones. The British born member of the Monkees Davy Jones was regularly featured in all time teen idol lists. In 2008, Yahoo Music named Jones the number one teen idol of all time, and in 2009 he was ranked second in a list compiled by Fox News. Davy Jones still to this day tends to win many number one’s and the top of the list in best teen idol contests.

Tiger Beat magazine, an influential teen music magazine, began publishing in 1965.

1970’s

After Davy Jones came Bobby Sherman and David Cassidy, who held the title of Teen Idols from the late 1960’s until the mid-1970’s. Both Sherman and Cassidy were actors on television and chart topping musicians in the pop-rock category at the time; with David Cassidy in particular enjoying immense international fame and success. Sherman was on hit TV shows Shindig! and Here Come the Brides among many others. Musical series such as Cassidy’s The Partridge Family, the animated series The Archie Show, and (to a lesser extent) The Brady Bunch integrated television and teen-pop music to significant success during this time frame. The Brady Bunch’s Barry Williams and Christopher Knight, as was tennis pro/actor Vincent Van Patten all were constantly in the fan magazines at the time. Actors Richard Thomas, Robby Benson, Peter Barton, Leif Garrett, Mark Lester, Jan-Michael Vincent, William Katt, and Jack Wild were the talk of the teenagers in the 1970’s as well. Musicians the Hudson Brothers were on many teen magazine covers for a number of years as teen idols. They had two shows on TV during the 1970’s and recorded many albums.

One of the features of many teen idols is that their fans (and, in some cases, the musicians themselves) tend to develop a distaste for the music once they became adults, and it is not much listened to by adults, except for nostalgia: the legacy of bubblegum pop. Teen idol performers in this category would include Shaun Cassidy, Leif Garrett, the Osmond Brothers (particularly Donny Osmond and their teen idol sister Marie Osmond), Andy Gibb, Tony DeFranco of the DeFranco Family, and the Bay City Rollers. Even modern classic hits and oldies outlets, which cover this time period, rarely play cuts from the teen idols of the era. A notable exception is Michael Jackson of the Jackson Five, who began his career as a teen idol along with his brothers, but whose individual career eventually evolved far beyond the limitations of that description and into super-stardom.

The Jackson Five were the first African-American music group to become national teen idols, appearing alongside white idols in magazines such as 16 and Tiger Beat.

1980’s

In 1985 actress Alyssa Milano from Who’s The Boss became a major teen idol and was dubbed "The Teen Queen of the 1980’s. In the mid-1980’s there was a group of young actors called the Brat Pack; the whole group collectively and separately became teen idols. They were Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, and Ally Sheedy. They starred in many coming-of-age films. The film that would help invent and popularize the genre was Francis Ford Coppola’s coming-of-age drama film The Outsiders (1983), which starred C. Thomas Howell, Ralph Macchio, Matt Dillon, Patrick Swazye, Diane Lane, Rob Lowe, Leif Garrett, Emilio Estevez, and Tom Cruise. The movie would receive critical acclaim, and would also become a box office success, and later a cult classic.

Actors such as Patrick Swazye, Matt Dillon, and Tom Cruise were teen idols who would later become successful A-list celebrities.

Actors Corey Feldman and Corey Haim also became teen idols during the later part of the 1980’s with films The Goonies and together The Lost Boys, Dream a Little Dream and License to Drive among other films. They were dubbed "the two Coreys". Before Corey Haim’s death in 2010, they did a reality TV show for two seasons (2007–08) on A&E named The Two Coreys after their 1980’s moniker.

Actor River Phoenix during his teen years became a teen idol during the later part of the 1980s.Phoenix’s work encompassed 24 films and television appearances, and his rise to fame led to his status as a "teen idol".On October 31, 1993, Phoenix collapsed and died of drug-induced cardiac arrest on the sidewalk outside the West Hollywood nightclub The Viper Room at the age of 23.

Australian-American singer Rick Springfield was regarded as teen idol from 1971, after releasing his solo début single "Speak to the Sky". His career matured over the next two decades with more hit songs. He gained further fame as a television series actor.

In the 1980’s, Puerto Rican boy band Menudo, caused a sensation in Latin America, nicknamed Menudomania that became compared to the Beatles’ Beatlemania.

Also painted with the Beatlemania brush was British pop group Duran Duran. Dubbed "the Fab Five", this group is recognized as pioneers in the then relatively new area of music video, that started with the Monkees in the 1960’s. Their exotic videos, such as Hungry Like the Wolf, being fixtures on cable channel MTV coupled with their exposure in teen magazines instilled them as teen idols in America and around the world though the majority of the 80’s. Another British pop band Culture Club were dubbed teen idols, with Boy George’s androgynous outfits that were copied by his teen fans and young adults alike.

At the end of the 1980’s, actor Kirk Cameron became a major teen idol teenage heartthrob. Cameron was best known for his role as Mike Seaver on the television situation comedy Growing Pains from 1985 to 1992. Also Scott Baio and Willie Aames of Charles in Charge fame found themselves regulars in teen magazines.

In popular music, the late 1980’s was the boom of teenagers dominating the music charts. Debbie Gibson became the youngest person to write, perform and produce a number-one single, "Foolish Beat", and also had many hits from her first two albums. Tiffany, another teen icon, became a pop sensation at 15 years old thanks to an aggressive marketing strategy. She promoted her debut album in shopping malls of the US. She is also the youngest person to have a debut album hit number one and have multiple number one singles from that album ("I Think We’re Alone Now" and "Could’ve Been"). Having become a household name, she had then-unknown band New Kids on the Block as an opening act for her shows. However, the sudden popularity of the New Kids caused their roles to be reversed. Gibson and Tiffany’s careers had stalled by the early 1990’s; so had NKOTB by the mid-nineties. The other boy band from Boston, New Edition was very popular with the teen set by the end of the 1980’s as well.

Madonna, was another example of teen idol and became a fashion icon between teenagers. Even, professor Joseph Straubhaar in the book Communications Media in the Information Society (1997) called a teen idol by 1992 year.

1990’s

The manufacturing of teen idols has been marketed more aggressively and with greater sophistication since the 1980’s. The rise of MTV in the 1980’s and the success of the boy bands of the 1990’s and 2000’s has continued to fuel the phenomenon. Besides a combination of good, clean-cut looks and a ubiquitous marketing campaign, such bands typically include a variety of personality types (e.g. "the shy one", "the smart one", etc.) Classic examples of "boy bands" include Menudo, New Kids on the Block, Take That, Backstreet Boys, and ‘NSYNC, all becoming the best selling pop groups of the decade. Hanson was initially marketed as such a band, but eventually outgrew this label to become a successful indie band. Female pop super star Mariah Carey, was very popular with teens in the 90’s decade. Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez, Mandy Moore, Jessica Simpson, and Britney Spears, along with mega girl groups the Spice Girls and Destiny’s Child, also became very popular at the end of the decade. Other notable examples from the 1990’s are female R&B singers Mýa, Aaliyah, Monica, and Brandy. After Brandy’s television show Moesha went on the air, it brought her many teen fans and she was always on the cover or in the teen magazines for many years. Brothers Nick Carter from Backstreet Boys and pop star Aaron Carter were both teen idols in their heyday, as was, to a much lesser extent, sister Leslie. Robbie Williams of boy band Take That had teen idol status as did Ricky Martin during the Latin music explosion of the late 1990’s.

Many of the major teen idols in the 1990’s were from boy bands and musical acts. One major exception was the situation comedy Home Improvement ‘s Jonathan Taylor Thomas, who appeared from 1991 to 1998, but never embraced his stardom. Another major teen idol was Freddie Prinze, Jr. who skyrocketed to teen heartthrob status after starring in successful teen horror films.

The 1997 film Titanic made Leonardo DiCaprio a teen idol; during "Leo-Mania" his face appeared on many teen magazines. Other teen idols from TV were most of the cast of Saved by the Bell, Joshua Jackson and James Van Der Beek of Dawson’s Creek, Ben Savage and Rider Strong of Boy Meets World, Joseph Gordon-Levitt of 3rd Rock From the Sun, Jonathan Brandis of seaQuest DSV, Jared Leto of My So-Called Life, Joey Lawrence of Blossom (and to a lesser extent, Joey’s brothers, Matthew and Andrew), Jason Priestley and Luke Perry of Beverly Hills, 90210 fame, and Erik Von Detten of various TGIF shows. These actors were often found on the covers and pages of teen magazines during the 1990’s as teen idols as well. Sarah Michelle Gellar was a major teen idol in the late 90’s, as a result of her lead role in the popular television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Fraternal twin sisters and TV actresses Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen were major tween idols, and as they grew up they later became teen idols during the 1990’s. After the movie Clueless, Alicia Silverstone found herself a teen idol. The comedy duo of Kenan Thompson and Kel Mitchell are also teen idols, in which they star in the Nickelodeon sketch comedy All That, their own sitcom Kenan & Kel, and the 1997 film Good Burger. Nickelodeon also produced The Amanda Show which featured Amanda Bynes as well.

2000’s

The Walt Disney Company and its numerous outlets (e.g. Disney Channel, Radio Disney and Walt Disney Pictures) have successfully developed a new generation of teen idols. In the early 2000’s, the company developed the careers of actresses and singers Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan, initially targeting youth and female teen audiences. While still teenagers, Duff became famous for her starring titular character in the Disney Channel teen sitcom Lizzie McGuire, and Lohan became famous for her starring roles in many successful teen movies, including Freaky Friday, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, Herbie: Fully Loaded, and Mean Girls. Other Nickelodeon and Disney Channel stars are also teen idols, including Jesse McCartney, Raven-Symone, Kyla Pratt, Ashley Tisdale, Vanessa Hudgens, Drake Bell, Josh Peck, Emma Roberts, Miranda Cosgrove, Miley Cyrus, Victoria Justice, Jennette McCurdy, Elizabeth Gillies and the Jonas Brothers.

In 2002, Canadian singer Avril Lavigne dominated the music scene and eventually became a worldwide teen idol. Listed at number 4 on Yahoo!’s Top 25 Teen Idols of all-time. Other teen idols are in the R&B and hip-hop realm, including JoJo, Ciara, Keke Palmer and Chris Brown.

2010’s

Disney Channel stars Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato, YouTube star Becky G, and The X Factor alumni Little Mix have come to be teen idols. Ariana Grande was a popular teen actress before gaining mainstream popularity as a singer and teen idol.

In Japan, more and more "idol groups" have appeared. In Japanese culture, persons called "idols" are media personalities in their teens and early twenties who are considered particularly attractive or cute and who will, for a period ranging from several months to a few years, regularly appear in the mass media, e.g. as singers for pop groups, bit-part actors, TV personalities, models in photo spreads published in magazines, advertisements, etc. One of the most successful groups is Momoiro Clover Z. Their performances incorporate elements of ballet, gymnastics, and action movies. During 2016, about 636 thousand people attended their live concerts, which was the highest record of all female musicians in Japan. The group has been ranked as the most popular female idol group from 2013 to 2016.

Since their rise to fame in recent years, pop singer and YouTube sensation Justin Bieber, country-pop musician Taylor Swift, boy band One Direction, pop rock band 5 Seconds of Summer, and girl group Fifth Harmony have become examples of modern-day mega teen idols who have achieved international success, known for their devoted teen female fans, as well as an adult fan base making them all international superstars as well as teen idols.

Your basics are generally shoes

A growing number of performers are either learning to be a the front strip fixture from probably the most high-fashion runway demonstrates or introducing their particular developer labels. But don't fret, these designers usually are not sacrificing his or her street credibility 1 tad. Quite often they will be wearing well-tailored suits with Dolce along with Gabbana shoes or perhaps a set of worn out jeans plus a shirt totting Louis Vuitton luggage. They may be still the identical hard-hitting rappers merely inside greater, much more pricey, garments.With all the advent of more electronica, automobile track and sample-laden tracks, a lot more reputation superstars will also be changing into geeks. You will see the actual effect associated with technologies, gaming along with the web in their choice of hip get jewellery which contains Super Mario megastars, skateboards cristiano ronaldo shoes along with ice cream cones. The look is painless since it is laid back. Your basics are generally shoes, a clothing, jewelry and limited skinny jeans using a touch of preppy that typically include knit tops above option along shirts or a ribbon link.

I won't brand brands, however some artists really provide the term crazy style a whole various which means. Over time we have seen them put on everything from waste totes although operating a tiny jeep, a red troll-inspired hair do associated with Versace knee-high gladiator shoes while going for a swim within a green pool area and quite often simply pasties to hide precisely what needs to be protected.

Video Streaming Platforms - How video streaming platforms are leading a change in Bollywood, Marketing & Advertising News, ET BrandEquity

A-listers are dropping movie projects to work in multipart streaming service films and producers are raising money from new players August 15, 2019, 08:11 IST The business of movies is changing faster than plotlines of a twisty noir thrillerJust a few years back, if a movie business executive had told anyone at one of those swish parties in South Mumbai that in near future, major stars will drop studio commitments on masala films to work on long, complicatedly plotted multipart movies that will have dark themes, guests would have thought he’s a bit nutty Yesterday’s nutty is today’s reality Saif Ali Khan rejected movie commitments because of his involvement in Netflix’s Sacred Games 2, that starts today. Akshay Kumar is happy being cast in Amazon Prime Video’s biggest Indian original, The End, and Abhishek Bachchan is shooting for Breathe 2A-list stars as happy campers in web series is one of the fundamental changes in India’s movie business, and that change carries within itself a number of other changes.Movies have of course always drawn moneymen and talent and always will, the magic is there But who calls the shots changes over time. Right now, the power hierarchy has changed from big studios and big stars as top dogs to starring roles for good scripts and inventive producers/directorsIn the earlier model, big studios acquired or essentially bankrolled star-fronted films These days, producers are being able to raise enough funds from new players to start and execute projects Good stories are the heroes and heroines of this business model While big studios are not quite the villain, they now have what old Bollywood scripts used to call character roles – they are looking at reducing acquisition prices and retaining IPs Read Also: A look at the defining moments that built ‘Brand India’ “With new platforms and players, who are coming in with fresh investments, a project doesn’t necessarily need to be studiofunded upfront,” said Shariq Patel, CEO of ZEE Studios, which produced films like Manikarnika and distributed the film Kesari this yearKaran Bedi, CEO of MX Player, an OTT player owned by Times Internet Limited, explained it well: “What we have been talking about for years… that script and content is king, is becoming the truth now with the advent of OTT If you see some of the big films, Uri: The Surgical Strike,Badhai Ho, etc, content based films are working.”Bedi added: “Big stars are still popular and enjoy loyalty of their fan base. They are crowd pullers So they are able to retain some rights However, initially, like in any new business model, prices were paid based on untested models Now the price of stars is also adjusting”Patel explains why IP is crucial for studios “From ZEE Studio’s perspective, any project that comes to us, my first conversation with any of the producers is that we need 100% IP if you want us to fund entirely, whether it’s a megastar or firsttime producer,” Patel saidSuperstars are losing their selling power Another producer, who spoke off record, said “mega stars are losing their touch…with availability of new and good talent across the board, there is democratisation of talent The grip of the troika of Khans – Aamir, Salman and Shah Rukh – who ruled the box office for almost 20 years, is loosening. Last year, all three failed,” he saidThis is the second big change in India’s movie business in recent times The first happened around 2007-08, when the industry became organised As another producer, who also poke off record, explained: “Corporatisation of film business started happening with the launch of studio model in India But the business has been resetting or recalibrating every 3-4 years 2007 was madness…when everyone started paying a lot of money for any project It was as if the gravy train would not stop”And as with all madness in any business the party eventually stopped. “The entire collapse happened”, as the producer described it “Some corporates folded up and some merged into some others”Today big streaming services are the major players “The Netflixes and Amazons of the world are doing the same thing – paying big money,” said another producer, again speaking on condition of anonymityAn industry veteran, he’s sure today’s big guns will also stop firing someday “This (big projects being commissioned by streaming services) also will stop someday, but right now there is a mad rush and everyone is busy making hay while the sun shines”But till this party lasts, its effects are hard to miss Take this bit of movie business as a classic demonstration of how things have changedIn 2013, broadcaster Star India signed a Rs 500-crore deal directly with Salman Khan Satellite TV rights of all his films went to the broadcast network Star started the trend and also got other actors like Ajay Devgn and Varun Dhawan in the fold Read Also: Netflix seeks activity data to improve on-the-go streaming That was then Now, Salman Khan’s movies will appear on Amazon first, ahead of a TV premiere Star had to let go, as it could not match the price Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan have signed similar deals with Netflix Stars are looking at streaming services to get a good deal for their projects post-movie hall run. But streaming services have plenty of options other than star-fronted moviesStudios don’t want to deal much with big stars because the latter keep IP rights, fully or in part, of their movies, they take these rights partially in lieu of their feesBroadcasters, who would earlier buy individual movies or a bunch of films from producers and studios, can’t always match deep pockets of big players in streaming services, who are better placed at pricing IP rights attractively.Will all of this change again? It may But right now, if at a swish South Mumbai party a movie executive says one day in near future, streaming players and good movie scripts won’t be the stars they are now, no one will believe him Read the full article

A Look At The Animation and VFX Industry In India

In the past few years, the VFX and the animation industry has grown in leaps and bounds. In addition to boosting the domestic Media and Entertainment vertical, this prolific propulsion has also helped the global economy. In 2017, the industry reached a value of INR 67 billion – YoY growth of 23%.

Animation

India is rapidly developing into the global hub for animation. The country has an enviously large talent-pool of English speaking and low-cost animators well-versed with the nuances of western culture. Increased content consumption across tier II and tier III cities is further driving demand within the industry.

In 2017, the animation industry in India reached INR 17 billion – YoY growth of 13% over 2016. It is expected to maintain a CAGR of 11% through 2020.

What is driving the growth in the animation segment?

The animation segment is being driven by a combination of factors -

· Domestic content: Television is the driving force in the domestic segment. With insatiable demand from broadcast channels showing no signs of slowing down, this trend is expected to sustain itself for the foreseeable future.

· Digital platforms: The popularity of streaming services such as Amazon or Netflix and the advent of new platforms like Voot has accentuated the demand for animated content.

· Out-sourcing: The biggest studios in the world are outsourcing their production to Indian houses capable of delivering flawless animation content at a fraction of the cost. The big domestic houses, in turn, outsource a lot of their back-end processes to studios spread all over the suburbs and towns in India. Typically, the latter enjoy an average annual turnover of around INR 300 million.

Film and television is propelling the Indian animation trajectory

Television, digital platforms and film are driving the demand for animated content in the Indian market. While the domestic animation film industry is certainly in its infancy, aplenty Hollywood projects closely collaborate with Indian studios to get their production off the ground.

Growing destinations, international broadcasting

In 2017, both the quality and the volume of offshore work of broadcast companies greatly increased. Cost reduction options and repeat business from international broadcasters are widely expected to boost animation offshoring. In addition to the north and south America and the UK, France, the Middle-East and Germany are outsourcing the bulk of their TV productions to India. Furthermore, international distributors and studios have begun commissioning original IPs for a global digital and TV audience to Indian animation producers.

Differentiation through domestic broadcasting

According to the World Bank, in 2017, India had a population of around 373 million between the age groups of 0-14 years. Thanks to the proliferation of kid-friendly global animation content across television channels in India, children now enjoy hundreds of quality animation shows.

That being said, domestic broadcasters are looking to create brand loyalty and differentiation with their audiences. Consequently, television channels in India are enjoying an unprecedented quantity of domestically produced animation content. Today, IPs such as Motu Patlu and Chota Bheem are widely accepted as the benchmarks. This, in turn, has induced both content production houses and broadcasters to create sustainable IPs in Hindi as well as regional vernaculars.

Unfortunately, under the commissioning model, Indian broadcasters retain the IPs. As such, animation studios and creators do not receive the right impetus to generate original content. Fortunately, this trend is now being reversed across the board.

VFX

An explosion in the number of platforms, spike in consumption driven largely by free-falling data rates and the subsequent expansion of the audience base has led to an insatiable demand for content. With a surge in the production of content across a plethora of platforms, demand for post-production has also increased at a commensurate rate. As a result, the domain of VFX or special effects that increases the quality of visual content has enjoyed steady incremental traction in the past few years.

An explosion in demand for domestic content

The global movie industry presently finds itself amidst a sequel marathon to successful franchises. When creating a sequel, film-makers are actively striving to differentiate their vision from the prequels. Creating a stark difference in visuals is an excellent way to differentiate an artistic expression from its predecessors. Furthermore, it fuels speculation and creates buzz, especially during the opening weekend when anticipation and curiosity are at an all-time high.

Consequently, movie producers are now more inclined towards bigger budget allocation towards VFX. In 2017, Salman Khan fought wolves in the movie Tiger Zinda Hai. In the movie Zero, superstar Shah Rukh Khan used extensive CGI and VFX to look like a dwarf. In the upcoming movie Bharat, Salman Khan is expected to sport 5 different looks that span a staggering seventy years, starting in the 1940s. This feat will be achieved with the help of VFX and prosthetics.

Special effects are expected to play a larger and larger role in upcoming movies in the domestic film industry. Movie franchises such as Kick 2 and the hugely anticipated Race 3 are reported to have a much higher special effects involvement than their previous releases.

3D = Conversion

Big-budget Indian movies are eagerly pursuing a trend of 3D releases. This, in turn, has led to an exponential increase in conversion assignments. If not for anything else, film-makers prefer a 3D version simply to inspire awe among their audience members by way of heightened aesthetic appeal, similar to the release of Padmaavat.

Increased regional demand

Thanks to the meteoric success of Baahubali, regional film industries are waking up to the power of special effects. According to the Hindustan Times, Baahubali – The Beginning spent around INR 850 million of its INR 3 billion budget on special effects. According to The Hindu, Baahubali: The Conclusion, which was released in April 2017, involved 33 separate animation studios over a duration of 15 months in the post-production process.

Today, special effects studios are cropping up all over the place like mushrooms. 2.0 – the Tamil language sci-fi thriller featuring megastar Rajnikanth and superstar Akshay Kumar is the most expensive movie made in India ever and has used extensive special effects during its production. Around ten production houses worked round-the-clock to deliver more than a thousand shots for the movie.

Data cited in this article that has not been attributed to an authoritative body has been sourced from the FICCI-EY Media and Entertainment Report of 2018. As is amply evident, for young aspirants pursuing multimedia courses in Kolkata, the future looks very bright and promising indeed.

"Advent Advent mein Soulmate brennt"

A Transformers Soulmate Adventcalendar

Day 17

Ship: Starscream x Megatron

AUs: Pain Transfer, Autobot Win

They noticed it at different times. Starscream knew the moment he watched his first gladiator fight with Megatronus in it. Too many things stopped him from speaking up then, and it was too late now.

Aka Megatron being sad in prison.

Their relationship had never been healthy or at least nor for a long long time, long before the war really started and long before they had become leader and second in command.

He remembered the exact moment it had become a burning festering wound.

He couldn't remember what had lead up to it, but he remembered the way his fist had made contact with his seeker's faceplate. He remembered freezing as the dull pain echoed in his own faceplate. He remembered taking a step forward with words of apology on his lips and he remembered the way Starscream had flinched back instinctively, fear, pain and fury in his optics, before he quickly scrambled up and fled the room.

It had only been the first time of many and it didn't take long for Starscream to try and strike back. It hurt more than just physically, but he pushed it away and focused on his anger. It had also not taken long before all the rumours about them being soulmates died off, than their careful courting had previously birthed.

Not that the rumours had been wrong. In fact they had been completely correct. But it did make him wonder, if Starscream would have ever told him, if he hadn't found out by himself.

Probably not.

Megatron was glad he had found out. Even if they had poisoned their relationship, Megatron still cared for Starscream. If they would ever get free again, he decided to try and mend the rest they had left of their relationship.

His musings was interrupted by dull pain blossoming in his side, quickly followed by more and new one in his helm. A growl left him as he glared at the door of his dark cell. If he ever found out which of the dirty Autobots dared to touch his second in command like that, he would grind them to dust.

One day, he promised himself, one day he would reunite with Starscream and the Autobots would pay.

And after that maybe they could settle down somewhere together and just enjoy their lives. Maybe Starscream could even return to being a scientist, if he'd like.

Spunk, Hot and Smart Women

Spunk, Smarts, and combating ability…? She could win at the whole lot. She ought to exchange a tire and dance in a ballgown within the equal ten mins. perhapswith a bit streak of grease over her cheekbone, to remind you that she changed into difficult and delightful, and also to remind you ways proper her cheekbones had been. Now she was carrying a quite dress however fight boots underneathit, and she additionally had a gun, to combat sexism. She looked so proper. She kicked a man within the face, and he or she didn’t even care. “Feminism,” she said to herself, after which put on some purple lipstick. “simply due to the fact I’m a feminist doesn’t mean I don’t like to look excellent.” Then she kicked another guy thru a window, and he fell all the manner. He becomeprobably useless. She had like 4 weapons strapped proper on her boobs. Mallory Ortberg’s “a day in the life of an Empowered girl Heroine” may be satirical, however I’m willing to bet most peopleunderstand the movie stereotype lampooned right here. Trinity within the Matrix, Maggie Madsen in Transformers, Tauriel within the Hobbit… succesful ladies, held up as evidence of Hollywood’s sensitivity to gender equality. Trinity’s a peerless martial artist, Maggie’s a hacker with a knack for marksmanship, Tauriel’s an orc-killing device. those women are on par with the men, right? They’re sturdy ladyCHARACTERS, signed sealed and delivered for container workplace achievement. except Trinity fails to pinnacle her pulse-pounding introduction, fading into the heritage while Neo takes centerstage. Maggie’s remembered for her smarts and stick insect seems, if she’s remembered at all. out of doors of her bow-and-blade-wielding badassery, Tauriel spends her time at the center of a hackneyed love triangle, the best context in which her persona peeks thru. All three characters, like such a lot of woman characters in famous media, lack intensity. SFC_TrinityNeo From The Matrix Revolutions | Warner Bros. pix and Roadshow leisure, 2003 This begs the question: how a ways have we come from the simplistic “Damsel in distress” depiction of girls onscreen, genuinely? “these days the princesses all recognize kung fu, and yet they’re nevertheless the identical princesses,” Sophia McDougall argues in NewStatesmen: They’re nevertheless love pastimes, nonetheless the only lady in a group of 5 boys, and that they’re all kind of the identical. They march on display screen, punch someone to expose how they don’t take no shit, throw round more than one one-liners or forcibly kiss someone due to the fact getting consent is for wimps, and then with ladylike discretion they again out of the narrative’s way. nowadays, the word “sturdy girl character” is greater advertising than substance, suggesting the only trait a femaleshould possess if a movie is to test the “inclusionary” box: strength, which a long way and away has come to intendspunk, smarts, and combating potential. What the phrase have to suggest – perhaps what it initially supposed, earlier than it became muddled by using the vagaries of semantics and prejudices of Hollywood – is “sturdy individual who's female.” here we begin to see “robust” for what it's miles; not spunk/smarts/preventing capability rolled into a one-dimensional person type, but a qualifier regarding craft. What makes a strong individual? The question deserves its own put up, but in brief, we would say a sturdy person is a multidimensional character considerable to the tale. He/she has strengths and weaknesses, and his/her employerfundamentally progresses the plot. at the same time as working via my backlog of movies, i discovered Bridesmaids, a 2011 romantic comedy about the misfortunes that beset Annie after she agrees to function maid of honor for her fine pal. We’re aware about Annie’s baking expertise and recognize her loyalty (strengths), however we’re additionally with her as she faces monetary issues, falls prey to jealousy, and wrestles with questions of 310eaa1671f8cdca56bbfcd482325088 (weaknesses). She’s a completely drawn character whose actions move alongside the movie’s occasions; a sturdy female man or woman within the unique experience of the phrase. SFC_Bridesmaids Bridesmaids | Apatow Productions and Relativity Media, 2011 Bridesmaids was successful, however its complicated portrayal of female characters is the exception to the rule of thumb. In reality, many movies fail the conventional “Bechdel take a look at”, comprising three easy requirements which collectively manage to pay for girl characters a naked minimal of depth: A movie should have as a minimum two ladies in it, Who communicate to every different, approximately something except a person. creator Walt Hickey presents a few startling examples: “The Hobbit: An surprising journey” contains fewer than named women and for this reason fails the check on the primarycriterion. And whilst “The Avengers” has as a minimum ladies in the film – Pepper Potts, Black Widow and Agent Hill come to mind – they don’t communicate to each different, so it fails on the second one criterion. And at the same time as the better halves of Doug and Stu are both named and do certainly have a communique in “The Hangover part 3″, it’s aboutAlan, Zach Galifianakis’ individual, so it fails on the 1/3 criterion. The animated movie, “Frozen”, passes the take a look atin view that significant lady characters, Anna and Elsa, discuss the isolationist policies of Arendelle, plans to build a snowman, and the time Elsa locked their civilization in an eternal wintry weather. Frozen met with crucial and business success in 2013. an awesome year for women in movie? perhaps in component, butin keeping with researcher Martha M. Lauzen, lady characters made up best 15 percent of protagonists and 30 percentageof all speaking characters in that 12 months’s top a hundred grossing films. SFC_Frozen From Frozen | Walt Disney Studios, 2013 Why achieve this many movies fail the Bechdel take a look at? Why does “sturdy woman man or woman” imply “macho” in preference to “multidimensional” to such a lot of? surely, longstanding gender bias plays a part. “let’s be honest,” a top studio executive exhorted the new Yorker, “The decision to make movies is basically made by using guys, and if men don’t ought to make movies about girls they won’t.” To be clean, as Manohla Dargis of The ny instances places it, “There isn’t a returned-room cabal of cigar-chomping male – and girl – executives conspiring against female administrators, at the least that I realize of.” alternatively, she describes the reluctance to fund movies with the aid of and about ladies as symptomatic of a conservative industry fearful ofexchange, even supposing embracing alternate may want to produce better Returns on investment. whatever the motives, the fact is that the advent of strong characters – in different phrases, simple vintage right writing – is non-obligatory when it comes to the representation of 1/2 of the arena’s population! Why do audiences take delivery of such a dismal popularity quo? “well, what choice will we have?”, you would possibly fireplace returned. As mentioned lately here at lighting, Hollywood has a tendency to “play it secure”. The identical kinds of movies get made time and again because they bring within thegreenbacks, so we’re barraged by content that assumes the identical simplistic perspective, 12 months in and year out. We’re conditioned to expect and presented few options to the spunk/smarts/fighting potential of Hollywood’s one-dimensional “sturdy female man or woman” type. It’s vital to word this thought of electricity is a wonderfully possible, if really clichéd, triad of developments to build right into a individual. however if your intention is to create a strong character, you want extra dimensions. How will your individual’s strengths and weaknesses fundamentally development the plot? SFC_AlienTerrified From Alien three | twentieth Century Fox, 1992 within the Alien franchise, Ellen Ripley takes on a malevolent creature, however her terror is regularly palpable. In Terminator 2, Sarah Connor realizes her obsession with stopping Judgment Day is turning her right into a monster, so she finds a less compromising way to prevent research into Skynet. in the Battlestar Galactica reboot, Starbuck’s guilt surrounding the loss of life of her fiancé impacts her ability to educate new Viper pilots. In shifting their tales from factor A to factor B to point C, Ripley, Sarah, and Starbuck kick ass, but like all people, they’ve got their issues. Of direction, not every movie capabilities a strong person who's woman, and that’s best. “A person’s gender, like their spiritual upbringing or their faith, like their favored book or food, like their sexual orientation and reports, like their schooling and their adolescence, is a component of individual,” creator Greg Rucka reminds us. It’s a single megastar in a constellation of narrative concerns. however it does shine in particular bright in a international waylaid through sexism. We encourage you to be sensitive to the fame quo. Push past the bounds Hollywood has a tendency to set for itself, and don't forget: your precedence is to create strong characters, be they male or lady. display their strengths and their weaknesses, and lead them to vital, not incidental, to the plot. SFC_Boyhood From Boyhood | IFC movies, 2014 exchange comes slowly, mainly in the movie commercial enterprise. however it does come, as suggested by means ofsturdy female characters in latest movies along with Boyhood and still Alice, as well as by way of this year’s Golden Globes, honoring movies wherein girls got to be “real, lovable human beings.” Maggie Gyllenhaal put it nicely in her recognition speech for “quality Actress in a Mini-collection or a motion picture Made for tv” (The Honorable lady): What I see, truely, are girls who are occasionally effective and occasionally now not, sometimes sexy, occasionally now not, now and again honorable, every now and then now not. And what I suppose is new is the wealth of roles for realwomen in tv and in film.

2018 Instagram and Influencer Trends Could Help Contractors Drive Engagement

Instagram has changed from a way to post artistic photos to a legitimate vehicle for contractors looking to drive engagement. The rise of influencers and influencer marketing for small businesses has played a huge part in this evolution.

In 2018, expect more contractor businesses than ever to jump aboard the Instagram marketing train. The eye-catching format is easy to use, and provides businesses with tools to keep their audiences engaged and informed.

New features and toolsets, like Instagram Stories, have also expanded what the platform can do for contractors. Thanks to Instagram’s powerful advertising tools, evolving features, and highly active audiences, contractors can use the platform to make big gains.

To help your business prepare its digital marketing strategy for the year ahead, take note of the following Instagram and influencer marketing trends that have nearly every small business owner saying, “Oh, that’s Insta-worthy!”

More Contractors Using Instagram Marketing

Contractors have driven huge growth on Instagram. This includes growth of both unpaid organic account posts and paid advertising use.

According to Forbes, Instagram now has over 8 million business profiles. The platform saw 500% growth in the number of business accounts in just a few months last year.

Instagram execs credit the majority of this growth to small business users. Setting up an account is easy, and it’s also just as simple to begin using paid advertising tools to promote posts.

Why are contractors drawn to Instagram? Because huge audiences login every day, often several times a day. There were over 500 million monthly Instagram users and 300 million daily active users around this time last year.

Now, with the advent of features like Instagram Stories, that number has likely soared even higher.

Contractors can therefore use Instagram to get huge reach for their campaigns or fulfill brand awareness goals with just a little bit of effort.

Influencer Marketing Benefits for Contractors Stack Up

Big brands aren’t the only ones who use influencers to achieve marketing goals anymore. The ability for social media personalities to drive engagement and direct attention can benefit contractors and small businesses, too.

According to a recent study, 94% of marketers from a range of company sizes found that influencer marketing programs are successful.

Because influencers can pique their audience’s interests and motivate action, campaign goals like conversions or product awareness become much easier to achieve. Twitter claims that just under half of social media users trust recommendations and product reviews posted by influencers.

That power likely explains why some business owners found that influencer marketing generates 11 times greater ROI than other digital marketing channels.

Micro-Influencers Take on Huge Importance with Small Audiences

Some influencers with a million plus followers like Michelle Phan have taken on celebrity status. They get invited to red carpet events and appear on mass broadcast TV ads.

As these average people become megastars, a clear distinction emerges between them and other influencers. Marketing experts have begun to split influencer types into multiple categories as a result.

“Macro-influencers” like Phan, Kim Kardashian and King Bach have millions of followers and a huge range of topics they cover. “Micro-influencers” have a small following of a few hundred to a few thousand people but often follow a much more niche focus.

Contractors have realized that micro-influencers are not only cheaper to work with, but they also drive campaign goals more effectively. Micro-influencers have this power because their audience feels stronger connections and finds the content posted more directly relevant to their interests.

You can see this connection in micro-influencer engagement rates. Influencers with less than 1,000 followers can engage 8% of their audience on average, while influencers 10 million+ followers only get “likes” from 1.6% of their audience, and an even lower frequency of comments and shares.

Put simply: contractors can work with micro-influencers to connect more authentically to audiences and drive more consistent action.

Instagram Stories and Live Video Make Engagement a Daily Affair

Most brands generally avoid posting on Instagram more than twice a day, except for on special occasions. Their reasons include diminishing returns and a fear of oversaturating their audience.

But, two new Instagram capabilities have begun to change that: stories and live video.

Live video can encourage people to watch content for eight times longer compared to pre-recorded video. Instagram stories displaying content that gets deleted after 24 hours similarly sparks our love of authentic experiences and our FOMO (fear of missing out).

Both approaches drive huge engagement levels for businesses of all sizes.

“Over 200 million people use Instagram Stories each month,” says Entrepreneur, “which is over 50 million more than those who use Snapchat — and Instagram Stories is just one year old! At this rate, nearly half of all Instagram users will be using Stories by the end of 2018.”

Businesses interested in driving attention towards certain campaigns or maintaining more active engagement with audiences can turn to Stories and Live video to accomplish these goals.

Increasing Demand for Brand Safety and Proof of ROI

The double-edged sword to influencer marketing is that some brands worry about influencers staining their reputation.

Video game streamer PewDiePie, who has the largest YouTube subscriber base of any channel, caused waves after repeatedly using extremely offensive language in his content. Brands that collaborated with PewDiePie had to cut their ties and make statements condemning his actions.

Since influencers are not brand employees, business owners invite a bit of risk when they collaborate with them.

The best way to avoid controversy is to look to influencers’ past behaviors. Ask questions before collaborating in any capacity, and make it clear that your relationship is dependent on a positive image for your business.

Similarly, tie any relationships you have with influencers to concrete KPIs, including ROI. It’s always better to start small with a relationship and establish proof of ROI before committing marketing dollars to a true collaboration.

For instance, try sending an influencer a free gift or just a kind request to highlight your latest campaign. If you like what they do with the information, you can work toward more collaborative content or even an endorsement-type relationship.

Trends in Instagram and Influencer Marketing for Contractors Can Help Your Brand Take Off Next Year!

All of the above trends point toward growing use of both Instagram and influencer marketing in small business circles. Contractors that enter these fields have the luxury of choosing as much or as little involvement as they want.

For brands that want to go all-in and invest heavily, they can often reap measurable returns for their efforts. But, these returns must be measured!

Only by setting goals and tracking performance can Instagram and influencers become a viable component of your contractor digital marketing strategy.

History of Gadgets

The records of devices spans as some distance lower back as humanity itself – seeing that hominids commenced creating equipment to make their lives less complicated.

Today, industry has augmented the advent of new devices, while sure outlets, along with Brookstone and Richard Thalheimer’s RichardSolo.Com, focus on popularizing them.

What famous inventors Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Edison, Alexander Graham Bell and Leonardo da Vinci, amongst others, had in common turned into foresight. They understood that an entire life spent gambling with what others viewed as toys and senseless gadgets would sooner or later result in vital era. From simply that small organization, the basis for strength, communications, movie, and flight turned into laid because of their gadgets, which manifestly possessed extra price than novelty.

Perhaps one of the earliest, maximum widely recognized gadgets created is the wheel

Many millennia in the past. Take a ride to your car and witness how absolutely progressive any such gadget have become and what sort of we now rely on it for transportation. An extra current system, the Apple iPhone, seems to be the start stages of yet every other machine-became-necessity in order to reshape communications.

“The iPhone may also at some point be looked upon as the device that started a second revolution in computing. Desktop computing turned into the primary revolution. Hand-held computing will one day be seemed as the second one revolution, and the iPhone is the product that commenced it.” -Richard Thalheimer, RichardSolo.Com

All devices were not created same. In fact maximum inventions are constructed on the most recent technology. The global of gadgets is tiered; gadgets fall into one in all 4 categories: mechanical, digital, programmable, and alertness. Mechanical devices consist of the wheel, as well as later tendencies which includes the pulley, the bicycle, the sail boat, the thermometer and the sort. Following the arrival of electricity, gadgets have been taken to a new level as inventors began to discover distinct makes use of for the newly harnessed strength.

They can do this by way of supplying ‘legitimate bribes’ – freebies which give some kind of inherent cost to the vacationer. Often it is an ebook or a few form of on the spot down load or video series.

Once subscribed, they are despatched a chain of automated emails which sell numerous services and products. By clicking the links within the emails and buying ‘digital’ products and services, the owner makes a fee. By growing the variety of subscribers over the years by means of developing multiple advertising methods, the listing of subscribers grows and so does the range of sales.

The satisfactory element is that the products don’t need to be your very own. Sales, deliveries and consumer problems are all treated via someone else. You simply refer the sale and collect a fee.

This is the ‘crux’ of an automated income system.

Automated Income

Building a ‘system’ like this takes time however, except you ‘piggyback’ a person else’s sales funnel, which makes it quicker. It takes time to analyze and time to build. But it’s well well worth the attempt. Once you have a working ‘sales funnel’ you may simply construct advertising and marketing channels to it and ship increasingly more humans via your landing web page.

The most important activity therefore of an affiliate marketer is to marketplace their touchdown pages and send human beings via their income funnel.

Content

Getting human beings for your website may be completed immediately with paid for marketing or, over the years with content material marketing. Content advertising and marketing takes time, paid for advertising value money. Depending on which one you have got greater of will determine your initial advertising approach.

Liquid and Gel Regulations on a Plane

When you’re packing for a experience you are going to be flying on is tons one of a kind than if you’re packing for a experience you’re not. Most of the reasons ought to be apparent, but having flown regularly, I’ve come to find a whole lot of human beings have either never flown earlier than or don’t know precisely what they can and cannot convey. The largest one which got me when I started to fly is the liquid regulations, which is probably the equal one which gets most of the people.

I had long night and an extended flight, so I added numerous espresso beverages, electricity liquids, and sports liquids. No, I wasn’t making plans on consuming all of them at the flight, a few have been for the subsequent couple days too. Upon checking my bag found out I needed to throw all of them away! Why? Well I do not know exactly, but not one of the airlines assist you to have greater than three.Four ounce boxes (100ml) of liquid or gel on a carry on. You may also but positioned larger ones on checked luggage; in case you do that make certain you wrap them in a few form of plastic sack simply in case they appear to pop open.

You are permitted to bring as many 3.4 ounce or smaller bins that you could

Suit in a 1 clean quart size plastic zip top bag, but you are best allowed to have one quart disheveled in line with the person. There is one exception where you can bring a bigger length liquid or gel container on a convey, and that may be an if it is a prescription. So when you have a prescription you’re planning on taking in a carry on, ensure you have got it inside the prescription container that will see the prescription label.

This is the final liquid law that were given me. Some of it makes experience consistent with the preceding law I just referred to however the different half would not. Not simply wondering I changed into ingesting a soda and hadn’t finished it by the point I were given to the safety test factor. I went all the manner even though the whole safety check, had the whole thing unpacked, then the security guard instructed me he’d either need to throw the soda away, or if I wanted to finish it I could need to undergo the entire method again, inclusive of my baggage! I thought it changed into absolutely bizarre my luggage would should undergo the complete technique again and now not simply have me move walk via the scanner once more.
