This document discusses style choices for a rock magazine, including fonts and color schemes. For fonts, a simple yet elegant font is selected for articles, a distinctive font is chosen for mastheads to be eye-catching but readable, and a third font is picked for titles and contents to complement the other fonts. The selected color scheme mixes typical rock colors like red with less common shades like pink to appeal to both female readers and rock audiences while standing out from other magazines through its color balance.

1. Style sheet

3. Masthead fonts
I think this one would look quite good as a masthead
because its easy to read but at the same time it looks like
it got a little texture, which kind of fits with rock. I1m not
sure if I like that it is a san serif font though.
I like the look of this one because it is easy to recognise
however it is difficult to read which the masthead
shouldn`t be.
I like that this one is quite easy to read but at the same
time has as style that is quite easy to recognise, also it
looks a little destroyed which fits good with the image
that rock music has.
I like that it is really easy to recognise and looks a little
elegant at the same time as it looks unique. It is really
hard to read it though because it has quite a lot going
on.

4. Article fonts
I think this one might just have a little to much going on
for being the font the text is written in. I think it would
be hard to read a whole interview or article in this font.
I like that this one is a lot simpler and there for it looks
a little more elegant. It is also easier to read because it
only has small serifs at the end of each letter.
I also think this one looks quite elegant and easy to read. I
also thinks it looks good as a head line font. I also like that
it looks really simple and classic.
This one is quite easy to read, but I don`t feel like it would
look nice as a head line, Because the font is quite thin. I
also feel like the font is to thin to use for the main text. I
think it doesn't look elegant enough for what I want.
I like the look of this one because it looks quite elegant
but at the same time its really easy to read. How ever the
problem is that it only has capital letters which won`t look
good for in article.

5. Colours
I quite like this colour scheme
because it has both flashy and
dark tones that I think would
look on the kind of magazine I
would like to make. Also these
colours remind me of some of
the Rock sound front covers.
This one is quite a classic
combination for a rock
magazine as it includes orange
which is often connoted with
danger but also a little with the
rock industry. Kerrang often has
a similar colour scheme.
This one is also a more usual
colour scheme as the yellow
colour is often used for
warning signs. There are
quite a few magazines with
this colour scheme including
NME
This one is a little different but I
feel like some of the shades would
look really nice against a white
background. Also by using it on the
front page it would probably be
able to catch the audiences eyes
because it looks different than the
other Rock Magazines.
Pink is usualy not used within the
rock genre apart form some
exceptions like a few issues of
Rock sound and a few of
Kerrang`s issues. However since I
want to make a magazine more
directed to the female audience I
would still consider using it.
This one is again a more normal
scheme for a rock magazine. As the
red can be connoted with blood or
danger. The rock music is also
connoted with danger so there is a
relation between the colour and
the audience.

6. Possible combinations
While these colours work
quite nicely together I
don`t think they would
grab the audiences
attention as much as I
would like them to.
I don`t quite like how blue
the purples look. Also
because all of the colours
are so settle. They won`t
grab the attention of the
audience as much as other
colours would.
I feel like this one is
quite well balanced
between intense and
settle colours. I also
think the colours would
work nicely with the
rock genre/
Since the person
I`m going to have
on my front cover
has red hair I think
it’s a good idea that
the colour scheme I
chose will match
the red colour of
her hair. So instead
of choosing one of
the colour schemes
I to try to combine
them.

7. Fonts
Masthead
For the article
For the titles and eventually
for the contents page
These three fonts are the once
I`m going to use for my magazine.
As I feel like they look nicely
together. I also feel like they
emphasise the idea behind the
magazine, which is supposed to
be a more sophisticated and
elegant rock magazine for a young
female audience.

8. Colour scheme
This the one I think is going to work the most on the front
cover. I also think they are going to grab the audiences
attention the quickest as they are a mix of usual and
unusual colours to use on a rock magazine. I think these
colour are going to compliment the hair colour of my front
cover model the most. Since this colour scheme includes
quite a girly colour, pink, I think it`s good that it also
includes some darker shades like the wine/blood red. This
creates a balance between the girly and the more rock
inspired style.
