The document discusses various fonts and design elements being considered for use in a magazine. For the masthead, the Laranjha Pro Fraco font is liked as it is simple and easy to read. For the main text, Calibri is liked as it is easy to read and professional looking. For the cover line, the Vanadine font is preferred as it is simplistic and sophisticated. Inspiration is taken from magazine covers showing medium close-up shots of models for the cover image. Poses using hands and busy backgrounds are noted. Double page spreads with articles and full images are preferred. Low angle informal shots and props like guitars are liked for content pages.

1. (Bright Young Things)
I like this font because it is quite interesting to look at, and
I like how thin the text is. However, I don’t think I am going
to use this font as I would like my masthead to be slightly
more simplistic.
(Laranjha Pro Fraco)

Mania)

may use this font as my masthead.

I like this font, however I don’t think I am
going to use it as my masthead because it
(Impact Label)
doesn’t look very sophisticated or
particularly feminine. I would prefer a more
simplistic font.
(Znikomit no.24)
(Znikomit)
I really like this font as I love the curves at the end of the
letters. I think it looks quite interesting, however I don’t
think I will use this font as my masthead because it is
slightly too thin for my magazine to really stand out.
I like this font as I think it looks very professional and elegant.
However, I don’t think I will use this font as my masthead as I
would prefer the font to have a larger thickness in order for it
to be eye-catching to my T/A.

2. These are the example
fonts for my main text:
I quite like this font because it is easy to read and looks quite sophisticated.
However, I don’t think I am going to use this font as it doesn’t look very modern.
I like this font as it is easy to read and is quite professional looking. I may use this
as the font for my main text as I think it looks appealing and would attract the
Target Audience.
I like this colour scheme because the colour purple
will appeal to my target audience (women) and the I like this font, but I don’t think I will use it for my main text as it doesn’t look very
colours blend well together. However, I don’t think I
professional.
will use this colour scheme as I think there needs to
be a greater contrast of colours.
I really like this font because it looks quite modern and curvy, which may
appeal to my female Target Audience. I may use this as the font for my main
text.
I like this colour scheme as pink and purple are stereotypically
feminine colours and look appealing together. This provides a
stark contrast to the monochromatic colours of black and
white. The black will be used on the main text and enable the
text to be easily readable. However, I don’t think I will use this
colour scheme as I would prefer variations of purple to the use
of pink.
I really like this colour scheme because I think the colours all
work really well together. Purple will appeal to my Target
Audience, and the combination of black and white will provide a
slightly aged feel to the magazine. This is important as my
magazine is a fusion of different sounds and styles.

I like this font for my headline as I think
it is quite girly and looks similar to fonts
I have previously seen on double page
spreads. However, I don’t think I will use
this font as I would prefer a slightly
thinner font to match my masthead font.
I really like this font as I think it is
very eye-catching and appealing. I
like the fact that it looks like
handwriting and it is very girly. I
may use this as the font for my
headline on my double page spread
because I think it will appeal to my
Target Audience.
I like this font as it looks very
sophisticated and would appeal to
a female audience as it is quite
girly. However, I think it may be a
bit too formal for the audience
and presentation of my magazine.

3. Artist Name Fonts
I really like this font because it is girly and appealing to the eye, it
would also appeal to my Target Audience (women) as it is very
feminine.
I may use this font on my front cover as I love how pretty and elegant it
looks. This font would appeal to my Target Audience because it is
feminine and easy to read.
I may use this font on my front cover as when it is
coloured to fit in with my colour scheme (a shade of
purple) it will look like lipstick. This is stereotypically
feminine and will appeal to my Target Audience, young
women who have an interest in fashion and beauty.
Cover Line Fonts
I really like this font because it is quite simplistic and sophisticated. I
will use this font for my cover lines as it will be easy to read and will
capture the attention of my Target Audience.
I like this font as it is quite modest and simple. However, I don’t think I
will use this font on my front cover as it isn’t as eye-catching as the
‘vanadine’ font.

4. I really like all of these images, particularly as they are all medium
close-up shots. I would like to use this type of shot for my front
cover and have been particularly inspired by splash image used
on the front cover of ‘Billboard’ magazine. Most of the images
used show the models unsmiling, and I may replicate this on my
own magazine. I also really like the way Katy Perry’s hands are
positioned (shown at the bottom left hand side of the page). I may
ask my cover model to replicate this pose on the splash image or
image used on my double page spread.

5. These images are my inspiration for my double page spread. I
really like the composition of the double page spread shown above.
On my own magazine, I will have the article on one side and a full
sized image on the other. For this image, I would like to use a long
shot or a medium shot of the same model as used on my splash
image. I really like the poses shown on these images, particularly
the monochrome image on the top left. The positioning of hands is
similar to the Katy Perry image shown on the previous page and so
my model may also use this pose. I also really like the mise-enscene of the image to the bottom right of the page. It looks very
busy and interesting, and immediately captures the attention of the
reader. I will try to replicate this in my own image.

6. These images are my inspiration for the images used on my
contents page. I really like the picture on the left because it looks
inviting and colourful. The image is very informal as it is low angle
shot. I may try to replicate this camera angle on one of my own
images. I also like the image on the right as I like the use of a guitar
in the image – when I take my own pictures, I will use a guitar as a
prop.
