These are some font ideas that I could possibly use
for the masthead of my magazine and also
throughout for sell lines ect. I chose these fonts
because my genre of magazine is rock and when
looking at other magazines of the same genre such
as NME and Kerrang, they all have fonts that are
very bold and stand out in comparison to other
genres of magazine. The fonts of rock magazines
are often very dramatic because this reflects on the
rock genre as it is known for being a very confident
and in your face genre, just as the font should be. By
using a daring font on my magazine I will be
conveying the rock genre and it will be easy for my
audience to identify which genre of magazine I was
aiming to create.
The colour palette I have decided to sue for my magazine
is black, red and white. These are colours often associated
with the rock genre because they are dark and grungy,
common connotations of the lifestyle of rock itself. Red can
convey danger and also stands out against the muted
black/white shades so it will stand out to my readers.
These colours have also been used on other similar style
magazines which tells me that they are noticeable to
readers and are connected with the genre. It is important
that I use complimentary colours as they will be sued
throughout my magazine to create a house style and I want
the colours to make reading easy and enjoyable. If I used
bright colours such as orange and yellow, it is likely that the
genre of my magazine would not be easily noticed and it
would also make the pages overpowering and something
that people wouldn't have an interest in reading.
