Hi, world! I am Tuan Trinh (he/him) and this is my blog for my school. I attend Seattle Central Creative Academy (SCCA) and this will be my first year. For my first blog, I was assigned a music poster for a Musician named underscores (styled in all lowercase). She is an artist who mixes pop, indie rock, punk, and EDM to create a unique sound that is both unique and underrepresented in the music world. She is gaining more recognition in the world of hyperpop. An example of her genre is the song “Locals (Girls like us) [with gabby start].
For my poster, I wanted to keep the mystery of who is underscores and invite the viewer to come closer and check out who she is as a music artist.
She is shown wearing a hat in her promotional photos for her current tour. The hat has very pronounced eyes that draw attention to it and I wanted to make this an element for the poster. There is a mystery to her in both of her current release albums because it doesn’t really show her face. I wanted to keep this mystery in the design because her music and songs in the albums tell who she is as an artist. I kept her name in lowercase and added the event space and date underneath it.
