This image is a poster promotion of Lana Del Rey’s song
“video games”. The poster shows an image of the artist Lana Del Rey with her
hair wavy and swept to the side and a flower band in her hair. This floral band
brings colour to the poster as the background is a neutral nude meaning Lana
stands out with her bright orange hair and accessories. The poster helps the
audience create a possible meaning of the music video of video games. One
interpretation could be that the song is about something quite dark but she is
some light in the song due to her bright exterior. However, it could also mean
a juxtaposition of two personalities. One of feeling alone due to her mans
drink issues like the lyrics suggest “He holds me in his big arms drunk” and
the other person who she is and wants to show a happy bright person. Her eye-catching exterior such as bright
flowers imply her in a natural state and one with nature, “I'm in his favourite
sun dress” lyrics suggest that the song does have a theme which is her being
the main focus trying to capture a mans attention. The
cross necklace implies the theme of religion in the song “Heaven is a place on
earth with you” these lyrics imply that she believes in religion and has an
idea of what her perfect heaven would be like and it would be with him. The poster is very striking and
therefore eye-catching as it focuses on solely on the artists meaning people
can easily know who it is advertising. The font also stands out as the dark
blue colour pops out of the nude background. The artist name is in a separate
font to the song. The name is written in a bold and a more appealing font, the
font is quite feminine with the flicks and curls which helps to appeal to the
female audience. The song is also written in a dark blue and is in capital
letters this makes the song name very clear and easy to read.
The image above is the original image I used for my music video promotion poster. It shares similar qualities to Lana Del Rey's cover with the floral theme.
