Trent White [Designer, Musician, Midwesterner.] about me

A little about me…

Hi! My name is Trent White and this is my website. I am a Midwest based art director, designer, musician and instructor. I received my B.F.A. in Commercial Art with an emphasis in Graphic Design from the University of Central Missouri located in sunny, Warrensburg, MO where I currently live with my wife Holly and boxer Bruno.

My clients range from small business to national brands.  Projects I’ve been hired for include brand identity, advertising campaigns, printed publications, web design, and other communications for corporations, non-profits, government agencies and artists alike.

Because of my knowledge and experience, I was sought out to teach several courses for the Department of Art & Design at UCM and aid in brand development campaigns for University Advancement. In addition to my role as UCM Coordinator for Advertising & Design and adjunct art faculty, I’ve has presented at conferences both regionally and abroad on various aspects of design and development.

One of my most notable presentations was at an international art and humanities conference held at the University of Sorbonne: Paris IV discussing a collaborative interactive design project to preserve the history and culture of Montmartre in Paris, France in the 1920s.  This project facilitated a publication I contributed to, dissecting web authoring and design for global audiences [but it didn't fly up the best-seller charts].

I would be happy to work for you! Please get in touch and tell me about your upcoming project.

…and a little more

As I’ve mentioned, I am also a musician. Over the last 12 years I have recorded and toured all over the country and had the pleasure of playing with some awesome bands [Dillinger Four, Hot Water Music, Leartherface, The Murder City Devils, etc].  My first band Kosher, was signed to the legendary L.A. based punk rock label, BYO Records in 2001. I’ve also played with now L.A.-based Super Black Market.  Both of these bands have albums that can be purchased at Amazon, or your local music megastore.
