The font above is striking as it grabbed my attention straight away its dark and looks to me like it was a rock style font i thought this would be a good font type to use as the writting flows almost like a tattoo which many rock artists have i also have not seen this type of font on other magazines so i thought it would help as im trying to be inovative and find new ideas to bring forward.
When i had come to this font my second choice i like the way the letters were not exactlly straight and they were slightly rigid around the edges not perfect jus as rock is always bending the rules and never straight forward they like to smoke drink party be free.This font i thought that most rockers could be familiar with as they will know it is a rock magazine as kerrang is slightly done the same.
This is the third font ive choosen and its rigid like the one before which i like and this is also very readable and its one colour simple but effective as i thought was a good way of representing my rock magazine this also has qualities of both kerrang and NME magazine as NME is bold and simple where as kerrang is like glass been smashed due to the loud bass of rock music this font has big bold letters like NME but its also slightly rigid and smashed looking refrence to kerrang i thought if this is not the mashead i have choosen i may use it for other titles such as contents or headings.
This font i like the most out of all of them as its black but has a hint of white running through it making it not all dark and this font being slightly unusuall will be eye catching and this type of font style also has the same kind of style to Kerrangs but this masthead had more lines going through it its almost as if someone had splashed paint on it showing a sign of freedom and saying do what ever you want it has many connotations and denotations such as it could be representing something cracked due to the loudness and bass of the rock music.
