This slide show contains font that are suitable for using for my school magazine.

1. This font could be a good masthead as even though it is a graffiti style it
brings the element of cool in the masthead, which related to the name of
the magazine. However, I don’t know if my target audience will appreciate
this font as it is a font you’d expect to see in a rock music magazine.
The semiotics of this fonts is graffiti, street, Skate. All those words relate to
this font.

2. This font seems like a better masthead than the first one, as it seems more
child friendly. Children used to write in bubble writing so this font could
relate to them. It also seems like a more informal way of writing school and
I think it goes with how the font is spelt incorrectly.
When you see this font you think of children as children write in
bubble writing when writing a title, that is another good reason
why this is a suitable masthead.

3. This font will appeal to the students, yet I don’t know how much it
would appeal to the parents, as it isn’t very formal. The font is
more formal than the first as it is not a graffiti font and is all in a
straight line.
I think if this font was underlined it would appeal to the parents
more.

4. This font is handwritten, and it is the style of handwriting children would use
when they’re practicing their handwriting. This represents school quite well but,
doesn’t reflect the word cool that well. With this type of font it would be better to
keep the word school in this font but, have a typeface like the first one to write
the word cool in.
People would feel the headline is ironic when written in this
font and I don’t want them to think that.

5. This font came under the ‘old school’ category and it is more of a American
college font, it was also called all star. Now I think about it, it was one of my
most irrelevant fonts. It would be quite an eye catching masthead but it
wouldn’t appeal to my target audience.
It wouldn’t be appropriate for a magazine in this country but, maybe in
America…

6. This font looks as if a child has practiced writing this because, it has
the guidelines a child would use to write something. It does look very
good if a child did write this but the fact that it has the guidelines
relate to the guidelines for letter you would use at school, this is why it
would appeal to my target market.
Again this font doesn’t reflect the word cool, it isn’t relaxed it is
very formal.
