Sarah Elizabeth McVicker
"Music videos are the most underrated art form of our generation."
— Featured on MTV’s analysis panel
Sarah is a music video scholar, cultural critic, and passionate educator dedicated to elevating the discourse around visual storytelling in music.
With a background in film theory and years of close analysis, she bridges the gap between fan appreciation and academic rigor—proving that loving something deeply and studying it critically are not mutually exclusive.
Through Starlites Academy, she’s building a community where curiosity meets craft, and where the next generation of visual storytellers can learn to see with both heart and mind.
