Font Research

I went on www.dafont.com to look for some fonts in order to make my magazine look more professional. Taking the genre of my magazine into consideration, I decided that the type of font that would best suit the magazine would be a clean, modern looking style.

Some of the fonts I have chosen include:

Highway Gothic-I liked this font because it looks modern, which fits well with the genre of music and its target audience. I decided to use it as my masthead for my front cover, because although it doesn't stand out very much, it is a similar type of font that is used in magazines like Q and Mojo. I also used it in y contents page in two different varieties-wide (for the sell lines of the contents page) and condensed (for the sub-headings).

Code Bold-I decided to use this font for the masthead on my DPS, because it is a simple but effective looking font, which fits well with the genre of my magazine, and follows the same style of similar magazines.
