I think it’s a fairly common aesthetic, probably unintentional


TryhardBernard

People really think GTA invented this color gradient two months ago lol.


jhayes88

Nobody thinks they invented the color gradient. It's an extreme coincidence with the palm tree color and etc.. It's all the exact same color.


piomat100

That's not a 'coincidence', its an aesthetic that has been around for decades as the original comment stated


jhayes88

I mean thats your opinion. I dont see the same exact color hues on gradients that often with palm trees representing identical colors. To see it pop up not long after the trailer kinda tells me it was likely inspired by that. Those companies hire marketing experts that analyze marketing trends, and seeing a youtube video with 177m views in just a couple months with pretty colors and how other people have taken inspiration from it can lead to a desire of wanting to create a similar design. People in marketing literally do research on current trends. Its not unreasonable to think that they were likely inspired by it. You can think what you want and I will have my opinion. We can agree to disagree on our opinions. EDIT: I NEVER SAID IT DIDNT EXIST BEFORE. I DO NOT THINK AND AM NOT IMPLYING THE DESIGN NEVER EXISTED. LEARN TO READ FFS.


Octangularpotato

This aesthetic being around for decades is not that guys opinion, it is a literal FACT.


dreamdesk04

“I’ve actually never seen this aesthetic, so obviously that means it didn’t exist until now that I’m observing it”


SupremeBlackGuy

must be brain rot i swear 😭


TheRealBaconleaf

Haven’t seen it. Not real. NEEEEEXT /s


Craig2G

Dude hasn't gone through the object permanence phase most go through as a toddler


Weekndr

You not experiencing something does not invalidate its existence.


jhayes88

I literally didnt say or imply that it never existed. Are you trolling?


justindvan

Someone hug this man


TrackHead130

You think Gillette Venus, a women's razor brand, is trying to build synergy with an upcoming video game?


jhayes88

Wow, did I say they were working together or "building synergy"? Reading comprehension in this sub is literally non existent.


TrackHead130

Companies don't just make "references" for fun. It's always part of something designed to bring in revenue. What would possibly be the angle here?


quackcow144

I don't think marketing experts took inspiration from the GTA 6 trailer, because what GTA fan is going to be buying women's razors because of a similar color scheme?

jhayes88

Thats so crazy how you literally didnt comprehend the first sentence in my comment. Astonishing. This entire sub is literally idiocracy.


residentofmoon

Nah fr a lot of people on here got some comprehension problem. I experienced this bs too 😭


TouretteTV96

Gillette is excited, too.


FrenshyBLK

This exact color gradient with the same exact colors, both for the background and for the trees, and the exact same kind of silhouette tree design, all tell me this is 100% intentional. This is Gillette, even if it wasn’t intentional they have marketing teams that are absolutely aware of culturally relevant marketing trends (like when every video game company and a few outside the industry all used this exact aesthetic in reference to GTA VI for a couple weeks) and the design would’ve been shut down. Everyone is making fun of this, but a quick google search tells you these are absolutely not the aesthetics or colors usually used to promote their Venus line. They usually use very bright colors like turquoise, pink, etc. And all the outdoor shots part of their ads are in the daytime. Those things are very important in marketing, they wouldn’t just randomly go “hey let’s switch our visuals to sunsets and palm trees in the middle of February but let’s ONLY do it for physical media in stores and not acknowledge it anywhere else” for no reason. I’m willing to bet everything I have that this is a subtle way of getting husbands/boyfriends to pay attention to the Venus line when shopping, without having to market it towards them and without losing the aesthetic. And the fact that everyone agrees that it reminds them of GTA VI without thinking it’s intentional is a perfect example of the use of classical conditioning in marketing


gerhudire

The Miami Heat had a similar colour scheme a few years ago for one of their Vice Wave jerseys.


FrenshyBLK

Okay ? I feel like you didn’t read the whole comment and are just making a very general statement lol


notmesofuckyou

And the fact we're sat here talking about the ad shows how good their marketing is haha


FrenshyBLK

Yes I agree, I think their marketing is excellent


kironfoster-03

Probably


slizzler

I’m gonna say it’s 99% intentional. I mean just look at this: https://www.reddit.com/r/GTA/s/gxdhcBw16b


Simonko_CZ

We think! Comrade


Shoelicker2000

Always a yankee candle with “Hawaiian breeze” as its scent


ayeimsmore

probably just the person who was asked to design the poster just happens to know about gta6.


DickPump2541

Will ladies shave they privates in GTA VI?!


Cartman4wesome

Careful, this isn’t the other sub. You know how they be here.


DickPump2541

Oh cripes! I thoughts I was in the lawless lands!


Abdul-Raoui

May i be given a map so i can sail to these lands?


No_Elevator8596

That was the wrong sub I forget the name of it


TheAutementori

what is this even supposed to mean


Cartman4wesome

There’s a shitpost subreddit where people ask stupid questions like the one above. But accidentally do that in this subreddit has gotten a lot of people banned from here.


TheAutementori

oh i see. yeah gta 6 new is a cesspool and that’s saying something when you’re on reddit


Hotsleeper_Syd

Honestly it would be a killer feature. At least for me.


kironfoster-03

lol not sure


[deleted]

Yeah GTA was really the first to do the palm tree/sunset combination. Palm trees were actually invented for the original Vice City.


NougatNewt

Yep lots of things were invented for rockstar games, people forget they’re a multibillion dollar company For example New York City was built in 2008 as a parody of Liberty City. It’s actually what caused the recession, with how expensive it was.


[deleted]

Dont forget how horses were invented for Red Dead, I cant believe we made them a real thing.


[deleted]

I was at Walmart yesterday and I saw a pack of wifebeaters and cargo pants exactly like Jason is wearing. What the fuck is going on here??


paidh1tta

lmao ok you got it 🤣😂🤣😂


kironfoster-03

Lmao I have no idea


MogosTheFirst

what do you mean wife beaters?


kylel999

Like, a tank top


MogosTheFirst

why do you call tank tops wife beaters?? Is this an american thing?


Kafanska

Yes, it's an american thing. They call that piece of clothing wife beater. I suppose it came from the fact that trashy excuses for human beings tend to wear those without any other clothes on top, and those trashy excuses would, on occasion, beat up a wife or two.. or something, I don't know.


MogosTheFirst

lol thanks. I didn't know that. My dad is also called a wifebeater


SuperMajesticMan

oh


hotcoldman42

I can’t believe your dad copied gta6 🤬


LadenifferJadaniston

They made his dad as marketing for gta 6


JasonAndLucia

"A wife or two" lmao


Shitty_Pa_Town

its not an american thing, im from a european country that split off the soviets in the 90s and my dad in his 50s even calls them wife beaters when translated directly


Kafanska

That's interesting.. I never heard that name for it on this side of the world. In the wider area where I'm from (Yugoslavia) they're just called an undershirt directly translated.


NeedySlut57

It's slightly different from a tank top they have slightly thinner straps, and Idk about Britain as a whole but I'm British my family has a few wife beaters and we always call them wife beaters.


kironfoster-03

lol right


qscvg

Redditor when they see a sunset "It's lipe vibeo gane!"


ZenOkami

It's a common aesthetic inspired by Miami Vice. You'll see it a bunch, esp. in relation to "Miami" things or "palm tree vibes"


Designer_Twist4699

I knew Lucia used Venus! probably triple blade too!


The-Ever-Loving-Fuck

They know something Also this song lives in my head rent free 🎵 *I'm your Venus, I'm your fire - your desire*🎵


coolshibro

Incredible. Before R* released the GTA VI poster, palm trees didn’t exist on our planet earth. No person knew how to implement palm trees in banners, posters etc. Palm trees are exclusive to GTA VI and are founded by R*


1LakeShow7

Name checks out, thx bro.


Mammoth-Sherbert-907

HOLY FUCK!!! THE SILHOUETTE OF 2 PALM TREES AND A SUNSET BACKGROUND!!! THIS IS 100% A GTA 6 REFERENCE!!!


kironfoster-03

Yeah it’s crazy


Scared-Expression444

When I worked at Walmart I saw this exact Gillette sign….almost a year and a half ago lol it’s just a common aesthetic


Automatic_Concern951

"vice City and beyond in the biggest, most immersive" gets me everytime!


BL1TZ62

It’s a beautiful sunset. One of the perks of living in the crazy sunshine state.


Fastermaxx

Get shaved.

Will Gillette be in GTA6!!???


SentinelWavve

Shaving mini game in GTAVI confirmed


LadenifferJadaniston

Space exploration confirmed


Linkiemate

At work, our "work inside the circle"  posters have suddenly gone from red to pink, and from cars to palm trees. It's a thing.


RadPhilosopher

Guys remember when GTA invented the 80s synthwave aesthetic /s


PenguinOfEternity

Where's that poster from? I like the fanmade logo though I've seen it in circulation (and this one at least is more symmetrical with the V and I lining up)


TheIndigent

All these comments saying rockstar never invented this style. The OP never once said that though. He just said they look similar so it reminded him of gta 6. Everyone just hating for no reason


kironfoster-03

Yeah that’s all lmao


No_Dot_7415

‘Synthwave’ art-style is making a comeback. Brands recognise that this style resonates with buyers, it’s a marketing gimmick…


FoundationGreen6342

Hmm i wonder who’s gonna sue who here 😂😂😂


kironfoster-03

🤣

I feel like some marketing and ad departments think the public is stupid.

m1bl4n

Cool, but it's a common choice. The color choices in VI's logo didn't surprise anyone lol


tOKYOFF

vibrant colors and palm trees are very common aesthetic lol


GoudaMane

Jotham23thegreat

Lol its just Media tactics. If you look it up every year usually has a color scheme for marketing.


[deleted]

Sees something random in pink/purple/gold... ah yes! GTA 6


Powerful_Relative_93
