3. Masthead Font Styles
Font Name:
The denotation of the font style is ‘Haze’, which is very similar to Kerrang Its gritty and
grimy, similar to that of my magazine of inspiration, Kerrang and it looks quickly
sketched. The particle effect makes it look like it could have been sprayed on as well
giving it a street edge, and making it stand out from others.

4. Font Name:
The denotation of the font style is ‘aBite’, which is very similar to Kerrang, my
magazine of inspiration; Its solid but fades nicely as one looks down the letter,
it is bold and stands out the page which would make it unique and eye catching.
It also suites the underground genre I am going for.

5. Font Name:
The denotation of the font style is ‘Babalusa Cut’, which is very similar to
Kerrang, this is good as the way it is separated and cut makes it stand out
quite a lot, and the overall edgy style matches my genre very well, as well as
being similar to that of my magazine of inspiration Kerrang. It is also easily
readable and well spaced.

6. Font Name:
The denotation of the font style is ‘I the hero’, which is not very similar to kerrang
This font is good as it fits the style quite well and is very different, it is not very
much like my magazine of inspiration, Kerrang, however which means it may not
be suitable, it is quite difficult to read as well, meaning its not preferable.

7. Font Name:
The denotation of the font style is ‘LA Street Kids’, which is very similar to Kerrang
I also like the way its scratched, and the boldness is very impacting and eye catching, with
the scratches to add uniqueness to it.

8. Font Name: Brush Grunge
This font is very suited to the genre of ‘UNKNWN’; as the name suggests. It has denotations
of emotion and passion, branching out and fading flamboyantly, fitting the genre very well.
Its overall aesthetic suits my magazines greatly as it fades nicely and has a very edgy effect.
