TRANSCRIPT

mastheadthe masthead is almost completely covered behind the singer featured on this cover10 examples of font with discussion I used Photoshop to help design these ten examples of font for the masthead of my music magazine. I have selected some fonts that would suit the front cover through the process. I also selected fonts that would not stand out such as the first font as it doesnt have that much detail and it looks too perfect with a straight line - this would be most suitable for a newsletter. However, as I developed the fonts, I was making progress by adding a few adjustments by adding some effects such as font 3. I used this unusual font called Reprise Stamp and it really brings out the stamping effect as it almost looks like something you see on a typical rock magazine such as Kerrang!

In font 4, i decided to use the Warp Text option to make this example look more dynamic and not boring just leaving it straight. Font 7 looks like one of those words that are typed using a typing machine. I included a black rectangular shape to make it stand out but I feel like this is suitable for the cover lines.In the last 3 fonts, i experimented with Styles to add more detail on it. Font 8 looks so retro looking and I like the colour theme for this example but I think this is more appropriate for a gaming magazine. Furthermore, font 9 looks very organised- I spaced out the letters in order to achieve a classy looking mast head. Font 10 looks very energetic- I used of the Styles optionand I found the one where it has lots of vibrant colours. In my opinion, the font and detail combine well together. It really gives out the party mood as well as making this examplelook more fun and exciting.
