The Russian writer Vladimir Nabokov is one of the twentieth century`s masters of prose who is known all over the world. Unfortunately, the majority of readers are only aware of his novel ”Lolita“ while his stories also deserve close attention. The aim of my project is to make a promo video of the Nabokov Museum in St. Petersburg using a new approach and an extraordinary plot. The video is expected to present not only the Nabokov museum but the significance of Nabokov`s literature and life . A novel approach to the creation of a promo video will help people get interested in reading Nabokov`s stories and give them an idea to learn the writer`s life through his museum.
