Imagine entering an art deco, Great Gatsby-type of an elevator that shoots you up to the stars and galaxies while bopping to a disco-infused “Levitating” by Dua Lipa. That’s what she did in her latest music video for the beforementioned song, featuring verses from DaBaby.
By perfectly capturing the essence of Future Nostalgia, as it’s both reminiscent of the past times, with its disco-heavy basslines, dancefloor lights, art deco-inspired interior, and clothing, along with referencing the future, hence the intergalactic party at the end of the video, the music video, which is directed by Warren Fu, utilizes fan-submitted talent sent through a competition hosted by Tik-Tok. Make-up looks, dances, and animation submissions were all incorporated into the final product.
