Font Research

Masthead

This font is bold, which is what I wanted and it also has a scratch which matches my genre as it's something that isn't clean cut like safe, manufactured pop music. 

 This font is very musically inspired, which would fit with the idea on my magazine that music is a way of life, so much so that even minor details are affected and inspired musically.

 This font is my favourite choice for my masthead, as it's bold and edgy. It's also better than the first font because the space between the letters isn't as large, making it look tidier. 

 I do like this font because it looks quite old fashioned in the way of style, which connotes that music is something that goes back a long way and is something that will always be important in life. However I think the effect used is too cartoony for my magazine.

This font is very musically inspired, but I feel it is too busy to be used for my masthead.

Sell Lines

This would be appropriate for my 'WIN' and 'PLUS' words as it's bold so it would capture the attention of a potential buyer, but it doesn't come with an exclamation point. This is a drawback because an exclamation point makes the sentence seem exciting.

This font is also bold, making it stand out and it comes with and exclamation point which means I will probably use this one.

This font is bold and simple to read, but it also subtly looks quite feminine which will attract the female side of my audience. 

This is a thinner version of the font above, so it may not be very clear to read against the police tape used for my banners.

The fonts on my contents page will be the same as my front cover for continuity to make my magazine look more professional.

Title

This is a very bold font, representing the bold music my magazine represents and the starting letters are slightly bigger than the rest of the text, which relates to my flat plan. 

Quotes/Article/Preview etc

This font looks like it's been hand-writted, which signifies that my interviewee is opening up to the reader in the interview, almost like a diary.
