The Killers, Sam's Town, Read my Mind and Day and Age, Human-Video/Poster Analysis





















The Killers Poster
• The title is bold and the circles in it are iconographic of the band, as shown on the CD case.
• There is an image of the CD cover placed on the front, this is a similar idea to ours as the female artist was on the cover of the digipak and she is also on our CD case.
• There is a picture of the band, the background is similar to that of the ‘Sam’s Town’ album case, reflecting more of their products, which carries out synergy.
• The background is dull; however, the title brightens it up. The red is also shown on the Sam’s Town CD case on the title.










































The ram handle bars on the bike reflects the inner part of the CD case where there is an image of a ram. This carries out synergy as there are similar images being portrayed.
















The name of the album is in the background, which is shown in a range of different shots.












The conventions of indie bands usually consist of images of the band and instruments, normally playing together. In our video we will ensure to follow similar conventions, however conventions that fit our genre of music.












The red light is a common motif with The Killers’ videos and also , links with the colour of the Sam’s Town title on the CD case.
