Making this kind of work, being on set and shooting is always cathartic. It&#8217;s my safe space. With this, I was thinking I was sort of melding my childhood experience of that pop world, which is so scary and oversexualized; there was so much misogyny in that, and bringing it into today, because it&#8217;s almost worse.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            There&#8217;s a larger number of fans and then there&#8217;s more access to these people. I hope it&#8217;s cathartic for the people reading it because what it really is actually about is being seen on social media. It\u2019s about being thrust into the world of the constant looker. I also purposely made the book so it wasn&#8217;t from one certain point of view. I have the different stories, but this story could be made by a teenage girl in her bedroom who is just imagining everything. Or it&#8217;s someone&#8217;s stalker and this is the real story, or it&#8217;s the pop stars\u2019 fears. It\u2019s this all-encompassing, I guess God-like, access.\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align:

How did you know you wanted to extend this world to a sonic experience? <br \/><\/b><br \/>Music is such a big part of my work. Growing up, I listened to a lot of soundtracks. We were listening to the <i>Magnolia<\/i> soundtrack for like one year straight. The way that I think of ideas is I&#8217;ll usually walk around or drive and listen to music. I have this close connection with sound and imagery; there&#8217;s always a song that I could put to an image. With this being something that is so narrative, I knew it was imperative that we make a soundtrack for this because it&#8217;s basically my movie in the book form; it was this natural extension of it.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            I love world building, and I want to create a world beyond the book. And again, I love ephemeral stuff. So it&#8217;s going to be sold as a CD available at the end of May. My partner has done the sound for most of my videos, so we have a very close working relationship. We looked at each page and I would say, if the credits are here, what are we going to hear with the credits? We went beat for beat, page for page. I&#8217;m going to be making a feature soon, so I was getting ready for that.\n          <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-279752\" class=\"content_block breaker triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left pull_quote\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"pull_quote\"><p>There\u2019s so many eyes watching you and you\u2019re so close to your fans.

You talked about doing it kind of like shooting an indie movie. Why was that important to you for this project?<br \/><\/b><br \/>Because I&#8217;ve been shooting for so long, you gain more access to tools and to people and more of a budget, but that doesn&#8217;t always correlate with creativity. I got to this point where I felt I needed to go back to how I shot when I was young, because it&#8217;s very naive and instinctual, and you also run into more challenges.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            When I started shooting, my reason I started taking photos was because I really wanted to make a film, so I was only shooting in that horizontal way and the way that I worked with the girls or my subjects was similar in ways that a director would work with their subjects. We scouted all the places and then we casted. And then with the cast, I would throw them into the environment and be like, okay, \u201cyou&#8217;re this character; you\u2019re this character.\u201d It was fun because it freed me up a lot. I think it&#8217;s a really good practice as an artist to go back to earlier methods that are maybe simpler, but work.\n          <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-279749\" class=\"content_block breaker triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left image\">\n<div class=\"media_wrapper\">\n<p>  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1440,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_220,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 220w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_300,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 300w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_400,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 400w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_600,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 600w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_750,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 750w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_840,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 840w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_960,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 960w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1260,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 1260w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_1800,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 1800w,https:\/\/thefader-res.cloudinary.com\/private_images\/w_2400,c_limit,f_auto,q_auto:best\/000043_3_bwd9ei\/petra-collins-star-book-album-interview.jpg 2400w,\" sizes=\"100vw\" alt=\"Petra Collins sees the horror of being a pop star\"><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"img_caption\"><\/p>\n<p>  <span class=\"credit\"><\/p>\n<p>      By Petra Collins\/Rizzoli Books<\/p>\n<p>  <\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"content_block paragraph triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px;

How do you achieve that?<\/b>\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            I was just talking to someone about my older work and about how there is this darkness to it. I think it&#8217;s that you can only tell the story with as much knowledge as you have. It&#8217;s not a conscious decision. Because I know that these things are inherently dark, it comes out in the photos.\n          <\/p>\n<p>\n            When I was a teenager, I was not living the life of a teenager and I knew these pains and horrors of the world, so I think that really came through in the photos. That&#8217;s the same with this book. It\u2019s the knowledge of the photographer or the viewer, and it&#8217;s seeing people as human, where they obviously contain multitudes. Because I&#8217;m not making people into idols; I&#8217;m capturing them in the way that they are.\n          <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<style>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"content_block-279751\" class=\"content_block paragraph text triple_gutter_right triple_gutter_left center_align\">\n<div class=\"content_inner_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"paragraph_wrapper center_align\">\n<p>\n            <i><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_new\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=AkmbjpuxtqU&amp;t=251s\">Revisit the Petra Collins-directed FADER documentary of Lil Yachty, &#8216;Keep Sailing&#8217;<\/a><\/i>.\n          <\/p>\n<div class=\"\" style=\"padding-bottom: 20px; margin-top: 20px; text-align: left;\">\n<\/div>\n<p>\n            <iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lil Yachty - Keep Sailing (Film)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AkmbjpuxtqU?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n          <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"author\">\n    <span><br \/>\n      By <span class=\"credit_name\">Sophia June<\/span><br \/>\n  <\/span><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
