bags concept graphic
personal project | graphic design
june 2023
tools used: adobe illustrator

for this project, my main goal was to experiment with different font pairings. bags by clairo was a song that i had on repeat over summer, so i decided to make a little poster for the song featuring my favorite lyrics from the song. the lyrics i chose are “can you see. me i’m waiting for the right time. i can’t read you but if you want the pleasure’s all mine. can you see me using everything to hold back.”

in this first draft, i utilized a few different fonts that i’ve never used before. these are all very bold and “stylish” fonts that are customizable.

the fonts used in this project are:

“can you see me” : snug variable

“i’m waiting for the right time” : antipol vf

“i can’t read you” : jetlab

“but if you want” : cheee variable

“the pleasure’s all mine” : cheee variable

using different fonts with different effects makes it easy for the audience to know where there is a “break” between the lyrics. for the first line of “can you see me” i used the 3D inflation effect in adobe illustrator. i made various adjustments until i felt like the text reached the shiny look that i wanted.
