Instagram - Thank You For 300 Followrs

We thought we would treat our instagram followers to a sneaky peak when we got to 300+ followers. For this we gave them the opening to our music video, Although we didnt get many likes as usual we believe this is because it is not a picture of lady gaga!

Instagram - Target of 300 followers

Instagram - Filming With Paper Dresses

Today we have filmed using the paper dresses so we thought it would be cool to take a photo of it to show our lovely instagram followers the journey!

 

Audience Research Instagram - Song Choices

An Instagram post asking our followers to come up with Lady Gaga songs if they were asked by Lady Gaga to name some.

Instagram - Filming!

We thought it would be good to have a shot that didn't just include pictures of Gaga but had a them amongst them. Therefore we thought it fitted to put the Lady Gaga wig on something other than ' Lady Gaga' Our fans loved it and we received roughly 18 likes.

Instagram - Lady Gaga in Elberses' Blockbusters

Elberses' Blockbuster book is highly useful for both our AS work but also now our A2 as we decided to focus on Lady Gaga. Elberse talks about Lady Gagas rise to fame through the work of social media. Which wouldnt not have been available 10 years ago. We thought it would be great to take a photo of this and share it with our own 'little monster' fan base.

Instagram - Bradford Filming

We thought it would be cool if we decorated a biscuit for Lady Gaga trying to get into the festive spirit! It seemed to work as Gaga fans loved it as we got 22 likes! it was definitely worth getting cold outside for a day!

Instagram - Filming Update

A photo to all our Instagram followers of us filming this week! Keeping them up to date with regular posts and using common hashtags.

Another update, from the same filming session as the last post, This gathered a more resonable amount of likes, tallying up at 15!

Instagram - Filming Update

Filming for Lady Gaga and keeping our followers up to date. However we think they prefer pictures of the real Lady Gaga!!

This was another behind the scenes image, it gathered 12 likes, which really does highlight the point of attracting attention by using images of Gaga!

Instagram - Audience Research

We asked our amazing Gaga fans for some help with our audience research, who is better to ask than the fans themselves? With the use of digitisation and the use of social media we now have access to her fans all around the world from America, Europe, South America, Australia and the UK. We also asked for the fans age range so we could get an idea as to who we should be aiming our music video at. However, many were more than happy to tell us their age which helped pin point exactly where our target audience needs to lie.

Instagram Post - Filming Update

So we went out filming and thought it fitting that we take a couple of photos for our Instagram followers so they can keep up to date as to what is happening. However because of how we have marketed ourselves on Instagram ( As A level students who are making a music video to Bad Romance, Who love Lady Gaga) therefore we have aquired a lot of fans who are just willing to see Lady Gaga and are not actually interested in our filming therefore this post only earnt 25 likes, which is still a lot I suppose.

We posted this as a little 'behind the scenes' look at our production. As stated above, this only gathered 25 likes, and so clearly shows that the best way to attract attention from our followers is to share a picture of Gaga. We hope to share more behind the scenes however.

Instagram - Attracting Attention

Since being on instagram less than a week we are already attracting the attention of people in the industry - example below;

Mark Loonen liked one of our photos he is a director and video artist for internation DJ's 

Instagram - Audience Research

Instagram - Audience Research.

I thought it would be a nice idea to take a question out to the gaga fans that follow us on twitter. However as a trial run as I didn't know what numbers to expect back I asked them about Lady Gaga's album with Tony Bennett. As I wanted to see if it was still Gaga fans that were buying it, or whether there had been a shift and the audience had changed.

From the results I managed to collect over a period of 14 hours I found that many 'Little Monsters' had purchased the album even if they didn't like Jazz. However what was noticeable in comparison to our school research is that our target audience for our initial research between the ages of 15 - 24 was maybe too high. Of the research we conducted we found that many were no longer interested in Lady Gaga and her actions. 

When conducting this research I was aware that the people that would be seeing this are fans...but what i wanted to get from this was the AGE of the people interested and wanted to see who the audience was for the new collaborations that have become available. 


Below is my conducted research: 

This is the picture I used to conduct the research 

Explaining what I'd Like them to do in the caption

I left it 14 hours overnight in order for people in America to have a vote. In that time period we got 27 Likes

Instagram - Lady Gaga is Our Inspiration

For this post we thought it would be good to utilise it to achieve more followers, we did this by using the most popular hashtags and by using hashtags familiar to gaga fans! we thought this would be a great way to be able to boost our numbers and fast! We received 45 likes on this post plus Lady Gaga fans asking for follows!!

We uploaded this picture, and tagged some of our followers who commented frequently in it. This seemed to boost the amount of people liking the photo (though this could arguably be because of it being a picture of Gaga!)

This is our most successful post to date!
