Illustration - Take a Bow by Rihanna

Andrew Goodwin identifies illustration as visuals that are used to represent the lyrics or message of the song. By illustrating a music video you are essentially showing the audience what the song is literally about. Illustration is often the most used method of linking lyrics with visuals used within music videos as it is the most basic and ensures the meaning of the song is not missed through a distracting music video. An example of how illustration can be used within music videos to represent lyrics can be found within Rihanna's Take a Bow.
