The document discusses color palettes and fonts for a new magazine. It focuses on a feminine, relaxing feel aimed at teenage girls. The author's favorite color palettes are 2 and 3, as they complement the magazine's style and can be combined in photos. These colors also match what female country artists wear. The author has researched natural colors from flowers and coasts to create a calm atmosphere. Regarding fonts, the author selects Angelface as the favorite as it looks feminine and matches the target market. The Impact Label font also fits the retro, modern vintage style. Hoedown will be used within articles to incorporate the country music genre. Some other fonts are deemed difficult to read or not feminine enough for the magazine.

I feel that all of these colour pallets would compliment my magazine as they all
follow the feminine feel that I am going for. From these colour pallets my favourite
ones are 2 and 3. I would like to do a combination of these colours in the
photography that I take, as they all go harmoniously together and have enough of a
range to make the magazine interesting to look at. These two colour pallets suit my
teenage girl target market and are also the colours of the clothing that the young
female country artists wear in a lot of their photos. The colours are a vital element
for my magazine as I am going for an over all feel of relaxation to try and make the
magazine as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. As a result of this I have looked
into natural colours from flowers and the coast as these create a calm atmosphere.
To conclude I feel there is gap in the market for this range of colours in the
magazine market and therefore think this new and refreshing colour pallet will work
in the magazines favour.

Font analysis
I have looked on DaFont.com and have
selected a variety of fonts to analyse. From
looking at these fonts I have come to the
conclusion that Angelface is my favourite font,
as I like the joined up lettering. I would class
this font as a feminine font and therefore it
matches the teenage girl market that the
magazine is to be aimed at. I also like the
impact Label font and this helps to bring
across the retro/ modern vintage feel that I
also want to incorporate into my design. Finally
I have decided to use the font Hoedown in the
magazine in order to still include the genre of
the magazine, as this is a western style font.
As like the maverick country magazine I
analysed I am going to have a non country
syle font as the masthead on the cover but
then incorporate stereotypical western style
country fonts into the double page spread.
When analysing the other fonts I felt that some
fonts such as Good Karma, 1942 Report and
DJB What a Babe were difficult to read and
therefore for a new magazine wouldn’t be a
good choice of font as people might not get it
right. As for CGF Locust Residence and
Prisma I feel these fonts wouldn't suit my style
of magazine as they aren't feminine enough or
related t the country music genre.
