Uncovered: Glüme - Main Character

Continuing our insights into the creative behind the shortlisted album covers for Best Art Vinyl 2023. Andrea Riba talks us through her work and this evocative cover shot of the avant-pop star Glüme who flippantly calls herself the 'Walmart Marilyn' for her latest album Main Character.

Andrea Riba is a Mexican-Chilean writer, director, producer, and co-founder of Femina Films. The album cover for Main Character was shot on the film set for 'Child Actor' which is the opening track on the album and inspired the short film and music video of the same title produced by Femina Films and Italians Do It Better.

Andrea tells us “It's a surreal film in which Glüme revisits her child self in the 90s. The image was taken after shooting the climax of the film in a preserved 70s dressing room in the outskirts of Hollywood. In this scene, Glüme confronts her mother (played by Riki Lindhome - whose credits include Knives Out, Wednesday) about the loss of her childhood to the demanding world of child acting in Hollywood."

Riba first met Glüme on set for her debut album cover shoot for 'The Internet', although the shoot initially started as a passion project. Andrea explains, “I had a Blue Velvet inspired photoshoot I had been sitting on, and after discovering Glüme through music label Italians Do It Better, I thought she had the perfect cadence for the concept. At the time, the label had already announced the album cover for her debut album The Internet, but when the label saw the photos from our shoot, the plan changed and they landed on one of the images for the album cover and billboards around LA, which was such an exciting surprise.”

We asked Andrea how the iconic image for the cover of Main Character came about. She told us, “We purposefully scheduled this scene at the end of our 12 hour set day in order for the exhaustion of the day to aid Glüme's performance. After wrapping the scene, I thought of taking film stills to capture Glüme's raw emotions, which were at an all-time high. There was no intention for the image to be the album cover, but the distraught expression captured on Glüme sparked the attention of her label, so they landed on this image as the album cover. There is an interesting contradiction between the title of the album 'Main Character' - someone at the centre of the plot, with an image of a woman tearing and in pure vulnerability.”

We wanted to delve into how the vintage feel of this image was captured so effectively. Andrea tells us, "I wanted to shoot the image on Cinestill 800T because this film captures a beautiful halation and glow around practical lights, that being the vintage tungsten bulbs around the mirrors around the entire dressing room we shot in. There is also a thick grain to the film which provides a sort of surreal veneer between the audience and the world captured, which was meant to reflect Glüme's life as a child actor in the 90's. We also wanted to keep it same world, since her first album 'The Internet' was shot on Cinestill as well."

Riba and Glüme have a close professional and personal relationship which may account for how Andrea was able to capture such a wonderfully raw and personal image of the star. She explains, "Glüme approached me about joining her team as a creative director and this was the beginning of, not only an organic professional collaboration between her and I, but a long term friendship. She is an inspiring human being and we share the same aesthetic interests and love for film, music, and people."

Baby Modelling Updates in the Studio

I offer a child model update service at my studio and this is one of the youngest models that has come to visit to start their portfolio.

There are two levels to choose from.  There is a full hour session with three outfit and backdrop changes – this is the perfect choice if you are just starting out and want to create portfolio images as well as head shots.  We can mix and match both head shot and editorial styles in this session and you have six images included in your session fee (plus the chance to purchase extras if you’d like to) so you can start your portfolio or give it a big boost after an image change or a break from modelling.The second option is the mini option and is a short and sweet session with one outfit and a white backdrop. This the perfect head and body shot refresh for your portfolio and great to simply update your books as your child changes as they grow.In the case of this young guy, his parents are just starting him out so we had a full session to give him lots of images to start his agency portfolio with.

Ryan Gosling, the heartthrob of Hollywood and recent Oscar nominee, recently shared a hilarious anecdote on Jimmy Kimmel Live! that sheds light on his childhood dreams, his first film experience, and a legendary actor with a surprising motive. As Gosling promotes his new action-comedy, "The Fall Guy," the conversation takes a delightful turn into the past, revealing a story from the set of his 1996 film debut, "Frankenstein and Me." Ryan Gosling's Early Days A Young Starstruck Actor and a Hollywood Icon: An Unlikely Pairing on Set At the tender age of 13, Gosling landed a role alongside the legendary Burt Reynolds in "Frankenstein and Me," a family comedy that flew under the radar but marked a significant milestone for the young actor. While discussing the film with Kimmel, the conversation naturally turned to the dynamic between the teenage Gosling and the seasoned Reynolds. Reynolds, known for his charisma and occasional reputation for being aloof, surprised everyone with his interactions with Gosling. The Shine That Wasn't Meant to Be: Unveiling Reynolds' Intentions Gosling, with a touch of humor, revealed that Reynolds was incredibly friendly and attentive towards him on set. This initial warmth, however, soon took an unexpected turn. Gosling, basking in the attention of a Hollywood icon, naively interpreted it as a sign of mentorship and a budding friendship. However, as he candidly admitted, "I realized that I have a really beautiful mom." The truth dawned on him – Reynolds' charm offensive wasn't directed at him, but rather at his mother, Donna Gosling. From Secondary Shine to Life Lessons: A Disappointed Teenager Gets an Earful The realization that the attention he craved was a mere "secondary shine" was undoubtedly a disappointment for the young Gosling. He jokingly confessed to Kimmel that he wished he'd figured it out sooner. Despite the slight disillusionment, the experience wasn't without its takeaways. Reynolds, perhaps sensing Gosling's dejection, offered him some cryptic advice: "Don't spend your whole life stepping over diamonds to live with a cubic zirconia." This metaphorical gem, though likely lost on a 13-year-old Gosling, offered a valuable life lesson about pursuing genuine connections and not settling for something less. Beyond the Antics: A Deeper Look at the Story While the revelation of Reynolds' intentions adds a humorous layer to the story, there's more to this anecdote than meets the eye. It offers a glimpse into the complexities of navigating Hollywood at a young age, the challenges of separating genuine connection from ulterior motives, and the power dynamics that can exist between established stars and newcomers. Interesting Facts You Might Not Know About "Frankenstein and Me" and The Fall Guy" A Box Office Flop with a Cult Following: "Frankenstein and Me," despite featuring a young Gosling and veteran actors like Louise Fletcher, was a box office bomb, grossing a mere $5,000 according to IMDb. However, the film has garnered a cult following over the years. Following in Stuntman Footsteps: Interestingly, both "Frankenstein and Me" and Gosling's latest film, "The Fall Guy," feature him portraying a stuntman. This new release, co-starring fellow Oscar nominee Emily Blunt, is poised to kick off the summer movie season.

Happy 70th Birthday to Lucy and Desi's $50,000,000 baby, Desi Arnaz Jr! The viewing public often blurred the lines between TV and reality with regards to the identity of Little Ricky mostly because Desi Jr's actual birth coincided with the birth of Little Ricky (played by Keith Thibodeaux in later years) on television. This confusion by the public eventually led to an identity crisis for the junior Arnaz. “I had this identity problem, and it wasn’t helped by people calling me Little Ricky, a name I learned to despise. I remember wanting rather desperately to be better at something – anything – than the boy who played Little Ricky. For a while, it seemed as if everything in my life was connected to Little Ricky’s.”—Desi Arnaz Jr. #lucilleball #desiarnaz #desiarnazjr #littlericky #ilovelucy #childactors #identityproblems #despised #resentment #friendship #dinahshore #keiththibodeaux #identitycrisis #famouschildren #drummer #childdrummer #happybirthday #waynelvslcy https://www.instagram.com/p/CnmpWGaOT6f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Atticus had his very first in person audition today for a national commercial. No zoom calls or self tapes. So much better this way and it will teach him to focus and be in the moment because I think a little pressure to perform live is always good. The waiting room actually had a gym set up. I guess they knew we were coming 😜#actor #childactor #hollywood #justhavefun #atticusardenti #alexardenti (at Hollywood, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpwRdTOuh78/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
